some say there's a 10% off on all displays.

also, if you buy 2 with some filler, you can use the 50 off 200 coupon.

there's 2 60$, one for NEC, one for Staples, both however req original UPC. the rebates limit you to 2 rebate per address.

so if you get both 60$, after the rebates there's chance that you can even make some money!
lol

I went to staples (SFO area) and they never heard of a deal like this - the manager told me the price was the same as the online one ($249.98)... (w/ the $60 MIR of course)

:( - maybe the guy was incompetent - but he was firm on the $249.98 price

I ran to my local staples and YES they did have the "NEC MS97f 19" Flat Screen CRT Monitor" for 95.00 dollars and the coupon of $20 off $85 worked with the Monitor, so i was out the door after tax for $80.50. The manager told me that staples is not going to carry CRT Monitors any longer, thus the reason for the clearance. Now for a Question, since the Monitor didn't come with the upc, how in the heck do i send in the rebate? (Thanks for the heads up on the is deal, I had to get a PAIR)

According to what's stated in that link, this isn't a true flat screen. This NEC sounds like the 19" Dell I have at work; the glass is flat but the CRT is curved. On the Dell it's not much of a curve, but it is enough to cause a slight glare between the glass and CRT. I've had this Dell for about a year and I'm used to it now, but when my job hauled out a perfectly good 19" flat screen and replaced it with this cheapo, imitation flat screen, the glare really bugged me. Oh well, only 2 more years with this one and maybe they'll replace it with a real flat screen CRT or even a flat panel.

I checked the Dallas stores today when they opened and there all gone. The closest place was McAllen, TX and they had 3 in stock so anyone in that area wanting one better act fast.

just tell him to scan the item or check the computer, and watch his jaws drop.
