Calling all CAGs....need assistance

[CheapyD]

Guys, I need some help.

Please take a look at Overstock.com's Electronics Department (http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2.cgi?PAGE=STORELIST&STO_ID=2) and pick out some products that you are interested in (and think others would be too) and I will try to get a CAG discount.

Thanks,
-CD

Logitech MX700 / MX900 (wireless/bluetooth) Mouse

I'd love to be able to ditch the cord for the reciever for my current mouse, but the bluetooth mouse is way expensive.

[JimmieMac]

A 2 to 3 MP digital camera discount might be nice.

They got any of those sythetic mouths that you plug in and have to perform oral on you? That'd be sweet. I don't see it here but maybe I'm in the wrong section?

[aminerva]

I would say the USB Pocket Disk 256MB Flash Drive for PC/Mac (Catalog #: 946862 )

I've been thinking about picking one of these up so I can stop burning CD's all the time to transfer data to/from home/work.

[magilacudy]

Sennheiser RS Wireless Headphones, or any MP3 player

[CAPTTRIPahh]

Palm Zire 71, Palm Tungsten E or the like

The gravis pad would be good if it got to the 7$ range

One of those 21 inch moniters would also be great. Like the Dell one, which is currently at 299.

Funny you should make such a request now: after picking up one of those controllers with an LCD for the playstation/playstation2, I've been looking for power inverters (converting d/c power from cigarette lighters in the car to a/c outlets, which would allow one to take a playstation2 along for road trips for movies/games in the car.

http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2.cgi?PAGE=PROFRAME&PROD_ID=376272

That's the link to an inverter at Overstock which is one of the better ones I've found. Not in terms of price, but of quality. A common problem with inverters (aside from power output, which for a PS2 is modest: 110volts) concerns heat build-up, and this unit has a fan. It also has 2 outlets--which some do not--and an auto-shutdown safety so you won't drain your car battery below a certain threshold. If they could drop the price a bit, that'd be great, and maybe some other CAGers who picked up these controllers would be interested, as well?

I don't know what the odds are that they would be willing to reduce the price on an item already listed as being low in stock (with a moderate possibility of selling out,) but I think it's been at that state for a while now. Probably just an item they haven't bothered to stock well rather than a hugely popular item.

[edit : kewl. They're back in stock.]

[Osh Kosh B'iotch]

I second a logitech wireless mouse.

[doraemonkerpal]

i also would like a discount on the logitech wireless mouse. i've had my current one for 4 years and it's still working great. another one as backup wouldn't hurt :)

[Advocatus]

I'd like to see a decent deal on a steering wheel (console compatiable). With Grand Turismo 4 right around the corner, I hope some people might be interested in this idea :roll: I have heard bad things about most steering wheels, but I bet the logitech stuff is decent.

[Scrubking]

- wireless keyboards
- wireless mice
- wireless keyboard and mice combos
- flash drives
- tv/vcr/multi remotes
- telephones

[MorganWebbLover]

Headphones and telephones would be cool .

[st0neface]

Any of the home theater systems would be nice.

...home theater system?? You don't sound very much like a cheap-ass gamer. You sound more like a rich-ass moviegoer. You RAMs. You put the RAMs in CAGs. Hmm....CRAMAGs...

[edit: ...yes, it was in jest. My now defunct, lifeless jest.]

[st0neface]

Actually the one I was mainly looking at was this one (http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2.cgi?PAGE=PROFRAME&PROD_ID=566280) $100 isn't that bad for one. But then again, your post was probably in jest.

[Odibil]

I'd personally like to see some deals on:

Home Theater Systems (http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2.cgi?PAGE=CATLIST&PRO_SUB_CAT=221&PRO_SSUB_CAT=1 280) to enhance our cheapass gaming experience with cheapass cinematics. [Speakers, Receivers, Remotes, etc.]

Computer Peripherals (http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2.cgi?PAGE=CATLIST&PRO_SUB_CAT=272&PRO_SSUB_CAT=9 99) to enhance our PC gaming experience, or to allow us console geeks to browse this site from the comfort of our couch/bed (both if you're a true cheapass), while we play. [Controllers/Joysticks/Wheels, Wireless Mice/Keyboards, etc.]

I think these best suit the average CAG, seeing as we all like playing games, and we all have a computer. Other items would just be based on personal desire.

Personal request: Philips DVD Home Theater System (http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2.cgi?PAGE=PROFRAME&PROD_ID=557516).

[guessed]

I was going to ask about the network tool kit (http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2.cgi?PAGE=PROFRAME&PROD_ID=667463), but I decided to go ahead and buy it (actually, not only did I buy one, but 2 other friends each got one as well) sans-CAG-discount. I hope it is decent, $30 seemed like a steal, and I didn't want to risk a sell out (I know, I am weak).

Edit: There is someone on eBay selling these kits with a BIN of $22.95, and $7.99 shipping -- Roughly the same price as OS. I'd rather go with OS.

[gamemasterjd]

any mp3 players would be nice

[Sporadic]

This would be nice. http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2.cgi?PAGE=PROFRAME&PROD_ID=586916

[Alpha2]

I get the feeling there might be a limit on the price range of the things CheapyD can get us deals on. some how I dont thing 500 dollar TVs and surround sound systems are high on the list of possibilities! :P

Unless you're getting a carte blanche to suggest things??? Are you?

[elprincipe]

any mp3 players would be nice

I agree, especially this one.

Yeah, no kidding. What did we get in the first two rounds of CAG-only deals? $2 off on items costing about $10-15? I'm not knocking the deals, but I agree that some of these requests don't sound terribly realistic....but then again...CheapyD hasn't actually *answered* your query....
[edit: whups, yes he has. Big items it is, then!]

[D4rkewolfe]

Yes definitely home theatre would be good.

Wireless keyboard compatible with PS2

I second the digital camera also.

I don't think price has anything to do with it.
In fact, I think Overstock would prefer to give deals on bigger ticket items.
They don't have much room to move on cheap ass video games.

[CheapyD]

... I mean....*I* have never seen him. Have you? Has anyone here? He could look like the statue of a Greek god come to life (burly, curly-haired man!) Maybe the pics are a myth and he's striding around a huge warehouse clad in toga & laurel wreath ordering hired grunts to load up huge trucks with expensive electronics for our respective mailboxes... :-s

Creative.

Pick up the 400watt Coleman one, Fan, 2 outlets. I used it for 32 hours on my drive out to Cali. Ran the laptop off of it and charged my cell phones with it. Just not, With inverters, you can only use up to 150 watts through the cig lighter, for more, you have to run off the battery.

[stocker08]

my requests are kind of bunched up but any dvd players. VCR/DVD Players. And Home Theater Systems.
