Just kidding, it was just your reaction. The prices you mentioned are double the price of what is being offered though.

Though admitingly i rather NOT even spend the money if i cant afford a nicer laptop.

Better off waiting for more stooples laptops.

$249 seems like a good deal for a laptop until you realize how old it really is. The last few $200-$300 laptops were at least 1ghz, this one is P3 600mhz.

I wonder how long did they have this in the back, must have been before the Y2k days.

This bag is pretty flimsy and thin. The bottom can easily rip, so if you got one, I'd augment the bottom by putting in some leather piece or duct tape it lots.

But I guess $12 bucks for Swiss A. isn't bad at all.

Just an FYI...

When ordering anything do not choose 'Store Pickup' as an option unless you are planning to wait a long time.

I ordered movie tickets from hbc.com on November 4th and I still haven't received them yet. Online it says that they shipped on November 9th. I just called HBC and they said the order will arrive either tomorrow or next Wednesday.

Now that's service! :lol:

Hmmm...I've always received my orders within 2 weeks with store pickup. Maybe there is an overwhelming demand for the tickets (I also ordered these last year and was delivered within 2 weeks from what I remember).

If anybody is interested, the Halex Retractable 6' Hockey Table, which always seems to be reduced every time I look is now on clearance for $79.00, reduced from $325.00! Not sure how good it is, but I ordered one and will take it back if it's not worth it. Can anybody comment on this item?

Don't forget the $49 handling fee.. which makes the deal a little less sweet.

Make sure you tell us how it is when it arrives! I'm interested..

i picked up the $49 computer cart - thought it was a great deal for those looking for a new desk.

The handling fee is for home delivery. I'm having it shipped free to the Bay for pickup. $90.00 total with taxes in.

I'll keep you posted on the quality.
