Forums - Sony Discussion - SonyStyle $100 off of $300+ purchase (includes PS3)

I tried the deal myself, and it went like clockwork.  They added the credit to my card 2 weeks after I made the purchase and I ran into no other problems.  I did make sure to pay off the card immediately.  As long as you pay our minimum payment, you should be fine.  Otherwise, you could run into trouble.

Deals like this are great, as long as you are smart about it.  The only thing that can get you into trouble is your own stupidity.  It has 12 months with 0% interest, so as long as you pay your minimum payment you will not have to pay any interest. 

This site does charge tax, but you still come out ahead by at least $65 compared to Amazon prices.  They have free shipping pretty often too.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S.

Sony has done this before and the response was always solid. It's certainly a legit way to get a PS3 cheaper than anywhere else...

At some point soon I'm going to have to get a PS3...

Sounded good until I realized it requires getting another credit card. It's difficult to close down accounts without affecting one's credit rating and I like to keep mine in the 800+ range.

 Yeah, typically if you wait 6 months or so to close them out it usually isn't a big deal.  Plus, if you are young, your credit score won't be hurt much since it is probably relatively low, so it isn't as much of a risk.

Sales tax? What's that? One Only good thing about living in Montana.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials 

 

Conservatives:  Pushing for a small enough government to be a guest in your living room, or even better - your uterus.

How young are we talking about.. im 23 and i have 750+ rating. But your ratings dont go down much I applied to 3 new credit cards, 1 new bank account, and maxed 2 cards and my score is around 745 right now.

Well, I'm in my 40's, but I didn't mention age.

Getting a credit card doesn't tend to affect your rating much unless you get carried away with the number of cards. Closing out a credit card can have an immediate and negative effect because you've suddenly altered your debt to potential-cash ratio. It's based on the formulas the 3 US credit reporting services use.



This is how I got my 40GB.
