Post by: argyakrivos on Fri, 06 September 2013, 19:04:07: Oh bummer! Just bought this two days ago for $80. If I had waited, I would have saved $10 + a bit more on customs, since I'm getting this shipped in the UK :(

If you bought it on Amazon, can't you get the discount if the price drops soon after you buy it?

Post by: durandalx on Fri, 06 September 2013, 20:49:05: I'm guessing its a response to Newegg having a sale on QFR's.

Brown QFR ($69.99 + $15 rebate, free shipping) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823129005 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823129005)
Red QFR (same deal, but now out of stock)

You just saved me $12.5 :D Just chatted with them and asked for a refund and they immediately did. It's a bit more than the difference, cause they refunded me for the difference in customs charges as well. Thank you for that!

Post by: sovano on Sat, 07 September 2013, 09:24:47: Did they recently switch out all of the grey cases for black ones for all the switches? Or is that just an imaging mistake by Amazon?
