    Hi,
    I'm planning to get a dv8000t soon. I would like tok now what's the best deal today. Also, I just found this 10% off coupon on ebay. It might seems a bit expensive, $50. However, I can save about $150 using this coupon.
    The question is I've never seen 10% off coupon for HP on ebay before. This is the only listing I can find. Does HP really do have 10% off coupon? What do you guys think about this?? Should I go for it?
    This is the link..

    Thank u in advance

    Too expensive for a seller with only 23 items sold.

    If you Google it, you'll see that there have been 10% off coupons for hpshopping.com.

    guys, dont be fooled! HP issues these coupons when you fill out their customer satisfaction survery, done it a couple of times. Thats why the dude says its e-coupon and stuff, so stay away - its like giving the guy $50 for the survey that takes 5 minutes to fill out!!! BEWARE!!!

    Instead - buy the laptop from costco, since hpshopping now is a part of HP and therefore charges sales tax in almost all the states. I was lucky enough to buy the V4000T before that happened, now look into buying from costco.com (not sure about their tax) or an already configured one from some online store

    Its good if you buy it at costco, but most of the laptops they have rarely have BT, besides i think alot of people would rather customize theirs.

    Also which surveys give you the coupon?

    The customer service evaluation surveys, they send you and email with an offer. I keep mine and fill them out when I am about to buy something ;)

    Honestly the best place to get a HP notebook is at office depot, they always have the best deals (of course after rebates). I was able to get a V2000z with 2.0ghz, bluetooth, DVD+RW, ATI productivity ports, Card Reader and 12 cell battery all for a little under $800 thats including tax. That was when they had like 400 in rebates, but i got all my rebates, so im really happy with it. Going to wait for OD to have the V3000z

    I have a 10% off coupon code and I'm not going to use it. I got it from filling out the surveys.

    It expires May 31st. You're welcome to use it.
    One USE E-Coupon code: 1265551222
    10% off any item over $50

    Anybody is welcome to use the code. First come first serve I guess.
