HP 20% Bing Cashback

saw this on slickdeals...

search hp on bing for 20% cashback...

Does BCB work with APP?

 

No, bing is not eligible for use with academic or employee purchase pricing.

This is stated in the bing TOS.

 

will this work for the elitebook series?

 

only 5% cash back on bing.com, then navigate to cash back store . It showed 5% CB

 

It's still working. I'm returning my dm3 to reorder it. I only knew about 5%. Go to bing.com, search for "HP", click on first link, 20%.

 

I'm also curious

 

Wow, the Envy 15 would actually be very competitive if you take 20% off.

 

Yeah it would be great, shame it only works in USA, i would grab the Envy 15 from HP.co.uk with 20% cashback would be great £1,500 would be like £300 off and down to about £1,200 i would take that any day!

 

Can anyone confirm if this would work for the Envy?

 

shipping is $30..which makes the whole deal % like 10%... i will pass..

 

only if you are buying a $600 product. A $2000 Envy 15 you still save $370.

 

will this work for buying an Elitebook off HP.com?

 

I just used this to order an Envy 15, so I'll let you know if it shows up in my Bing cashback account. I have to admit it seems too good to be true, but if you click on the 20% link, it says '20% off' in the Cashback window and it takes you right to the page where you can select any of HP's personal notebook line.

Ordered:

HP Envy 15 w/i5-540M
4GB RAM
Anti-glare screen
ATI HD 5830
320GB SSD Drives
2yr extended warranty
External optical drive
Extra 6-cell battery (Slice is a bit too big for my taste)
System recovery CD for Win7 Home Premium
Logitech V220 Cordless mouse (too many complaints about the trackpad in these forums)

Total: USD $2,443.17
Shipping: Free
Tax: None (hooray Delaware!)
20% Cashback: $488.63
Total: $1,954.54

The cashback purchase should 'appear' in my account within 2 days, even though it's 60 days before I actually get the money back as that's how Bing cashback usually works. Still, this basically meant that I could pick up the SSD option for what I otherwise was ready to pay for the regular disks!

 

Yes, it works!

I'm one of those unlucky ones that has never got their CB in less than 60 days...

 

Well, it's still 'pending' - I won't see the 500 bucks for two months. But that's fine with me. I feel like I just got away with robbing a bank.

 

that's pretty awesome, guys.

only if HP had a 17" or 18" Envy. I would have been on it like white women on Tiger Woods.

 

this thought has crossed my mind...

my Envy configuration would be $2200 w/ two 160gb SSDs
- $440 from BCB = 1760
sell the two 160gb SSDs for ~$400 each = $800
total price would be $960 for an envy

do you know if HP is using Intel G2 SSDs?

 

that's a big question. someone on the envy owner lounge said that HP is telling people that they are, but all previous information I'd seen says that they're mum on the subject and that you're just as likely to get G1s as you are to get G2s.

 

Hope this still works in about a week...

 

Looks like it's back to 5%.

 

Yep, back to 5%.
Ah well. I'm happy with what I paid.
