Also buy.com via ebay

And if you haven't signed up for CircuitCity deal emails you can go there and sign up for $10 off your next purchase and they have the drive for $200 also.

I'd never buy anything from Tiger Direct. Seems 1/2 the time they don't have it in stock, their website doesn't reflect it, and they leave you wondering for a week or more.

Amazon has in stock for $209 and you'll get it in 2 days for free (if you have Prime).

I know it'll be pretty cheap to mail-forward one to Europe, so if you can't find any within $10 or so, maybe someone here can help you out.

USPS says it's $11 to ship a 1 lb parcel to Germany, just for example.

Lol - keeps dropping at amazon.

Isn't it a 3o day price guarantee there?


They are not obligated to give you a price guarantee. If you call or chat with them, usually their reps are flexible enough to honor the price difference within a week or two, maybe even up to a month. But if you get a strict customer rep, they will give you a canned response of somthing like "we understand your frustration. However, our prices constantly change in order to stay competitive with other retailers, so therefore we cannot go back and refund the price difference." This is from personal experience chatting with the custom reps.

Several people on the forum would help you out by proxying it for you from the US for free. Just gotta ask around :D
