Daily Discounts on Computers/Electronics

Sat Sep 10, 2005 11:41 pm

I thought we should start a thread that listed all websites that offer daily specials on electronics/computers.

If there is a special in one of these websites then it should still have a seperate thread in "Hot Deals" so that everyone knows about it.

Here are some websites I visit daily to check on some HOT DEALS:

<a href="http://www.slickdeals.net/" target="_top">Slick Deals</a>
<a href="http://www.dealcatcher.com/" target="_top">Deal Catcher</a>
<a href="http://www.techbargains.com/" target="_top">Tech Bargains</a>

I think it would be worth it to make this a sticky and allow people to add websites to it.

Just thought it might be a good idea to bump this as the links are more useful than some of the other links that have been posted lately ;)

Also, if anyone has anything to add it would be nice. Are we missing anything?

Dell is running one of their periodic sales on laptops for the next few. Minimum is $100 off from the base Inspiron model and up to $500-600 from top-end stuff. Prices plainly marked and calculated automatically, no coupon needed.

EDIT: Whoops, accidentally dropped this here instead of in the root. Sorry -- mods, please move.

It's still a good bump though.
Lots of folks don't know about the sites listed at the beginning of this thread.
Now more will.
Woot.com is a hoot even if you don't buy from them.

Oddly enough, Newegg.com has a daily "shell shocker" deal for those who sign up for a log-in account AND their e-mail service. Usually there is free shipping combined with a discount from the regular price. The items listed will vary from a common hard drive to items less in demand, but it's usually worth a 10 second look...

It shocked me a little bit, but I finally realized you are talking about Canadian pricing.

NCIX is selling for a couple of bucks cheaper. Still, this is exactly why the new Phenom II X3 720 is such a good matchup. You get one more core and can overclock easily with the unlocked multiplier. Plus you can get that a bit cheaper to offset the now very small premium on DDR3.
The Model M is not for the faint of heart. You either like them or hate them.

I know there are probably lots of sites for this sort of thing, but does anyone know where you can pick up older computers for cheap? I've tried woot and those sorts of places, but mostly they only have "the newest thing." Any suggestions?

Well, if anyone has an iphone, there's an app called Daily Deals that has listings from amazon, dealcatcher, dealnews, dealsea, dealslist, deals2buy, deals of america, edealinfo, and wait for it... fatwallet, slickdeals, AND techbargains. Honestly, the only ones I ever look at are the last three and Amazon. As far as I know, the app is free. I'm not into paying for apps. BTW, for app deals, I like app miner and FAAD. I know FAAD has free android apps, but I don't know if the other ones are available or not. As far as older processors and the like, what about pricewatch? I really haven't been there much since the rise of newegg, but they would seem like a good place to start searching.
