Free CF cards @ B&H! For real!

Well, I had ordered 3 8gb cards yesterday from BH for ~$25 including shipping and I just got email that they were shipped so -- I just ordered 3 4GB cards too -- they will be almost free after shipping. This is soooooo cool! The difference between standard UPS and 3 Day UPS was only about 40 cents, so I splurged for 3 day.

Wolf Camera was running the same deal.

just remember folks you will need a card reader that will support these cards. Hopefully, you all do so this will come as a surprise.
 
I still usually read my cards by tether to my camera .... but my generic reader works fine with them too (I have been using the Extreme III's for some time now). Thanks for the heads up, though.
 
why does it tell me that the cards are all sold out? Anyone have a link? And they aren't 29.99 anymore... I'm confused, what happened?
 
Someone at work told me that they tried yesterday afternoon and got the same sold-out notice. I guess it was only a short sale. Have you checked Wolf camera?
 
considering that they were free they probably ran out of stock very very quickly!
 
I just ordered mine yesterday and today I received emails saying they have shipped!

I ordered 3 orders of 3 cards each (the limit per household)...

9 4GB cards for $15!

Awesome!

They should arrive Thursday/Friday
 
I had ordered 3 8gb cards on Saturday and got notice sunday they were shipped. About 5 minutes ago, I got email saying the 3 4gb cards I ordered yesterday morning were shipped. So, looks all ok here.
 
eh, I always miss these, because I don't have the money on hand right away. This sucks. Anyone willing to sell 1 or 2 by any chance? I will even throw some more money on top of it to give you some profit, but being a broke college student I can't afford the full price.
 
The rebate is good for a while still. And its good at like 30 camera stores. Open up the link to the rebate. The 2nd half of the rebate form lists all the camera stores that qualify for the rebate.

Still time. You didn't lose out. :thumbup:
 
it's fine it you have been reading those cards, but i had a friend buy some and then get really upset when her card reader wasn't up too speed.

a newer reader did the job with no issues.

as an aside, i had to get a new reader for my classes as my students are starting to use larger cards and the current reader just won't see anything. Any way, i went into Office Depot yesterday and was shocked to hear the manager tell me that he had no idea about this issue.

i don't know why i was surprised, it is hard to keep up with all the new whistles and bells, but it just seemed strange.
they tried to sell me the card reader we are using now, which i know for a fact won't work.

The rebate is still good, but does anyone still have the sale price?
 
Thanks for the link. I picked up 3 4gb cards for a friend for Christmas which cost me just shipping. I decided to go back today and pick up some for myself, and see that not only are they out of stock, but also about 2x the price as Monday. Always good to get something for nothing.

Now if Pentax would just offer a $700 rebate on the 77mm limited lens I just bought, I'd be really happy :)
 
i think the free thing was a black friday deal , at least at Wolf's . they discounted the cards and then with the rebate they ended up being free. Perhaps this was true with other vendors.
