| Details: | Corsair 520HX 520-Watt Power Supply $80 after rebate (repost) Corsair 520HX 520-Watt ATX Power Supply for desktop PCs for $100 with free shipping, and a $20 mail-in rebate is available. Every other store sells it for at least $110. It has some of the best reviews we've ever seen for a power supply priced under $100, and it's rated as one of the quietest. Note, one of the most common causes of computer hardware failues are electrical issues. Computers need to operate with constant clean power, so a surge protector (or UPS) and a good quality power supply is recommended. If you spent hundreds of dollars on computer components, better be safe than sorry by using a good quality power supply such as this one. When researching power supplies for your next PC, pay more attention to user reviews and less to maximum wattage rating. Update (10am EDT): No longer in stock, but they are taking backorders. Note, the rebate is valid only if submitted within 30 days of order. So if your product has not shipped within the next 2 weeks, you may want to cancel the order or be stuck paying the full $100 price. Update (5/8 4pm EDT): Back in stock at Buy.com. |

| Advisory: | This deal requires the customer to mail in at least one rebate. Make sure that you save a copy of the rebate form immediately, just in case they take the rebate form offline. It is also recommended that you mail in the rebate immediately after receipt of the item, otherwise you might forget to do so. And you should mark the maximum date that your check is expected to arrive, so that you follow up with the company if you do not receive the check in time. Rebates can be annoying, time consuming, and require a responsible person to follow the tedious rebate instructions. And, this involves the possible risk of the customer fulfilling the rebate requirements but the company choosing not to send the customer a rebate check for any reason. The more well-known or reputable the company is (the company itself, not the company's products), the more likely it is that you will get your rebate. If the rebate is from a company that you've never heard of, of if you question the company's business practices, chances are high that you will never see a rebate check. Understand that dealing with rebates are risky, so ask yourself if the product is worth full price in case you never receive a rebate check. |
