We just received our first official Spooky Takedown Letter!
When I start posting links to leaked ads, be sure to download ads you're really interested in. There's always a possibility that those ads will be pulled and you'll no longer have access to them. It doesn't happen all that often, but it does happen. Quote:

I'm in the market for 2 - 10TB (or 12TB) HDDs and I'm stuck trying to decide to buy now or wait and hope for a better deal for Black Friday. But $275 each for a good name brand 10TB drive I think will be hard to beat even for Black Friday. Now or wait, now or wait!
But I'll be watching this thread constantly, thanks for starting it. |

It's from NewEgg, so there's their usual restocking fee unless it's defective. But it's an HGST 7200rpm NAS 10TB drive for $275, I'm really thinking there's not going to be anything much cheaper for Black Friday. And that price is only good for 6 more days (but I've seen NewEgg run out of great deals too days before the end, so not sure I want to wait too long).

For unopened items, Newegg's return policy gives you 30 days to return them, with free return shipping and no restocking fees. Something to consider if you can make your purchase within the 30-day window prior to BF. Also consider that most of the ads will be leaked ahead of BF, so you'll be able to see if it or a similar item goes on sale at any of the electronics stores. In which case, you're probably safe in getting it now. Decisions, decisions... |

Oh I didn't realize if unopened there was no restocking fee. There's little risk to ordering it now then and just watching for deals before Black Friday. I'll give it a day more and then definitely order the drives. They're great quality drives at an excellent price, so I don't think I'll be sorry no matter what. Well maybe finding good quality 12TB drives at the same price would hurt a bit, but not too much!
Now, if I can resist not starting to fill them up when they come for 30 days... I've got at least 500 DVDs of movie and TV series that I decided I wanted to put onto hard drives for streaming. It's become a real bother to actually dig through my multiple binders full of DVDs to find what I want, even though I have a decent catalog of everything. There's nothing like just pointing to the movie and streaming it from your TV without getting up, I've gotten really spoiled. PS: Thanks for helping me spend my money! |

I ordered them this morning, I decided I'll wait 3 weeks at the most before opening them and starting to use them. But I'm really kicking myself for not deciding to do this a month sooner so I could have avoided the 10% sales tax hit.
