Intel Retail Edge 2019 Deals - i9-9900KF, i7-9700K, 660P 2TB SSD, NUC 8 Home

KF, instead of K, which has no integrated graphics due to shortage or something.

In comparison to retail prices in Canada:
Intel Core i9-9900K = $635 CAD + tax
Intel Core i7-9700K = $500 CAD + tax

Guessing there is brokerage on top of the shipping price of $38 USD?

NICE Walmart is back

... No one is going to comment on the fact that NCIX is still on the list? Despite it declaring bankruptcy in late 2017?

I used to use this 6 years ago. Wow a lot has changed. Now you have to pay in USD and pay for shipping. Wild.

How do you get this deal and where’s the link?

You get this deal by working at one of the listed businesses and passing the associated technical information tests. This program is to encourage sales staff to actually know what they're talking about.

When I got it years ago the $30+ USD shipping came worldwide express, so there was something like $10 because I didn't have a credit card on file for UPS to auto-bill taxes, but it wasn't the near-$100 brokerage fee experience you'd get from ground.

And repeat whatever it is Intel wants them to say. "Megatasking" with multiple cores is the best thing ever right up until Ryzen steals the multicore thunder. Also AMD's processors are glued together and inferior. But at least sales staff get free/cheap stuff.

Ah that's too bad
I have an 8700k already so I don't really need to upgrade but it would've been nice

$10 + Taxes... so for a US$300 average purchase, that's around US$50 on top of the item price + shipping...

Hmmm I just joined the program and verified my employment and I am Novice with 600 credits. What do I do now?

You need to answer the quizzes and stuff in order to reach a certain level status.

People most likely will be selling them for i9 9900KF around $550, i7 9700KF around $450, Intel 660P around $350-$400 & Intel NUC 8 $680-$750 on Craigslist & Kijiji.

The SSD is cheaper through amazon at $258.99 CAD

Too bad the rest of plebs can't get in on these deals. Would love to swap out my totally underwhelming Ryzen 5 2600 for an Intel i9-9900K/F and just spit out crazy frame rates with taking out a small loan to pay for the processor/mobo/fast RAM.

So there is no way for people to join this program unless certain criteria are met? I.e. work in a computer sales or work on computers?

Find a friend who does work in that category, and ask to borrow their login if they are not using it.
