Sony Visa Offer
The offer is for $150 off any purchase of $299 or more from SonyStyle.com (or Sony Style stores) in the first 45 days of your card. The credit is supposed to show in 8-12 weeks. In addition, you get 1 year same as cash on purchases of $299 or more, so after you make the purchase, you can just let it sit there until you get the credit, and then pay off the rest in another ten months or whatever.
The website also offers instant approvals and will give you your card and CVV number right there if you are approved so you can apply for the card and then buy the item at SonyStyle.com immediately.
So I am considering this item:
Sony EBook Reader for $299
Includes Free Shipping
Includes Free Engraving
Includes Free 100 eBooks
Includes 1 year Same as Cash with Visa
Includes $150 back in 8-12 weeks on Visa
Net: Sony EBook Reader shipped and engraved for half off, and you get a whole year to pay the balance and/or deal with Sony if they are slow on posting the credit.
Of course, this is not limited to just the EBook, you can also use it for a PS3, which will have the same FS and same 1 year SAC (sorry no engraving).
