Adorama is having a sale on the SanDisk Extreme III Compact Flash Memory Cards. I've been watching those for three weeks now and finally something worth posting (I think). Some fabulous deals. The greatest deals are on the Compct Flash cards. Here is a list:


SanDisk 8 GB Extreme III Compact Flash Memory Card Read Rate 30 MB/s
Buy 3 = 3*57= 171- $160 Rebate = $11 for 3 = $3.67 each
Click Adorama link above and then search for: IDSCFE38G30M

SanDisk 16 GB Extreme III Compact Flash Memory Card Read Rate 30 MB/s
Buy 3 = 3*115= $345- $300 Rebate = $45 for 3 = $15 each
Click Adorama link above and then search for: IDSCFE316G30

Sandisk 2GB, Extreme III Compact Flash Memory Card Read Rate 30 MB/s
They list these for $4.95 which would let us make $5 after rebate but it seems that the value they put for the rebate is wrong.
Click Adorama link above and then search for: IDSCFE32G20M

Buy 3 = 3*30= $90- $75 Rebate = $15 for 3 = $5 each

Click Adorama link above and then search for: IDSSD8GE3

Rebate form
- Rebate in form of Visa Gift Card, takes ~8 weeks to arrive. All rebate requests must be postmarked by 11/11 so dont waste any time ordering, you cant request the rebate until after you receive your products.

oh man i wish i had an extra 170 to drop. my card is way too small. i saw this on potn the other day

TROLL 09-30-2008 01:36 AM

yeah just put $171 on my credit card for 3 8gb cf cards... and i'll be getting a $160 rebate... sweet.

97TurboDSM 09-30-2008 01:38 AM

wanna do it again and i'll give you 11 when the rebate comes? lol

TROLL 09-30-2008 01:40 AM

haha... dude. and if it doesnt go through? i might do another but for the risk and time involved i'll be keeping them or selling them for at least a little bit more than $11.

97TurboDSM 09-30-2008 01:41 AM

lol 20? what are the real life chances that the rebates wont process?

TROLL 09-30-2008 01:51 AM

i'd say the chance of the first going through is 90%+, but a second or third may not be as good. it says you can do 3 per form but doesnt say you cant do more than one form, but eh... rebates are just a pain in the ass.

97TurboDSM 09-30-2008 01:54 AM

i agree, i dont mess with rebates too often. i was just curious if there was a serious possiblity that someone could get screwed here. i'd be all over this if i had the cash to drop right now.

TROLL 09-30-2008 02:03 AM

credit card... you'll have the rebate within 2-4 weeks of your cc bill coming.

97TurboDSM 09-30-2008 02:04 AM

meh, i've gotten myself in trouble with my cc already lol so i cut it and tossed it. i just deal with cash nowadays

TROLL 09-30-2008 02:08 AM

haha ok i can respect that...

97TurboDSM 09-30-2008 02:09 AM

oh and if you feel like selling even one of those 8gb cards, let me know. my 2gb card isnt cuttin it

TROLL 09-30-2008 02:15 AM

ok... i probably will, but unfortunately i wont know how much i can sell it for until i wait for the rebate to come back... so i could sell it to you now for face value and potentially give you some money back in like 8 weeks if you want, haha.

97TurboDSM 09-30-2008 02:17 AM

heh i think i can manage till the rebate comes. i just unload photos from my card all the time.

grimm 09-30-2008 07:55 AM

Amazon has some for $34 bucks each for the 8gb. I'll probably do that. Almost every rebate i've done when purchasing more than one of the item has always back fired. they give excuses like, only one item per receipt, too many items per form, One rebate per envelope, yadda yadda, and at that point, you can't do anything about it. Tis a really great deal! maybe i'd buy one... but...

grimm 09-30-2008 02:45 PM

well i won't lie, i ended up getting 3 cf cards. hopefully it will all work out with the rebate. :)

grimm 10-02-2008 03:42 PM

well i just got an email from adorama and the cards i ordered are on back order and they wouldn't chip them out for another 10-14 days. making it past the deadline for the rebate, so i had to cancel my order :(

TROLL 10-02-2008 03:43 PM

bummer... i ordered the 8gb ones and haven't gotten an email so hopefully i'm good. i know a lot of people were ordering the 16gb ones...
