RE: [taxchat] printer recommendation

When I heard about the issues with PCRush sending out items that were not new I sent them an email.

 

The company responded that they shipped a new printer to me, I am assuming that the mean it wasn’t a refurbished model.  But if don’t want the printer I can refuse the shipment.

 

I am going to accept the shipment, but if I do find out it is a refurbished model or not new.  I plan contact my American Express Card people and let them deal with it, especially since I have an email from the company saying that it is a new printer.

 

I will let everyone know what I receive.

 

Thanks for all the input.

 

Cris

The printer is not being sold by Amazon. If you look at the page carefully, it says that the printer is coming from Electronica Direct. If it has to be returned or exchanged, that's who you'll be dealing with. I've never heard of them so I have no comment on the company. However, those concerned about PCRUSH's policies should read the following:

This is a $899 printer (that's the HP retail price anyway)

A search of pcRUSH found chat boards where some customers said they received refurbished merchandise.  The cost from pcRUSH is $598.86 + $58.10 shipping

 

 

So I found a better deal here:

the cost is $549.95 + $51.43 shipping, which is $55.58 less than pcRUSH, and this is for new sealed box from a HP authorized reseller.

$601.38 less $450 rebate = $151.38  + your voluntarily remitted use tax to the State.

Just the new toner cartridge alone retails for about $125.

I ordered a HP 3005dn / normally the printer costs @ $899, but I found a place that is selling it for $599 AND HP rebate of $450!  My cost for the printer is under $300 including shipping and sales tax!

If any one is interested the company is PCRUSH.  Office depot has the same one but at $899 less the $450 rebate.
