#NEC 84 price
4 messages in this thread
Who has the best deals on an NEC-84 CD-ROM? I got a flyer from a co named
SofTec Plus in Tuscon AZ showing $689 for the drive "complete with caddy,
SCSI kit (which I don't need), and installation software". Is that a
reasonable price?
CDW lists the CDR-83M at $499.16 with no controller. Someone I know tried
to order this but was told that the CDR-84 was available instead, and at a
lower price. I didn't get the new price, but it should be somewhat less
that $499.
I don't think CDW will sell it at that price. When they have them I
think they want $550. They also said the one slated to come in are spoken
for. If you want one, you must prepay for it now. I have some bare drives
on order should be around $500. Also some drives come with the SCSI
adaptor, and cable. I think those are $589.

Stephen,
I would also recommend CDW (Computer Discount Warehouse) at 1-800-776-4239.
The price that I was quoted for the CDR84 was $485 on 25th May. Be aware
that this is their cash price and you would have to add 3% for credit card
purchase. This would make the drive $499 for a credit card purchase. I
have talked to them several times and have always gotten good response over
the phone although I hadn't purchased anything from them until now. Today
I ordered several products from them (Colorado Memory Systems Jumbo 250 &
tapes) and will see how well this works out. They seem to care about good
service!!
