The Staples Clearance Thread

Rev

None in Liverpool. Been after this for months too. Hope someone else manages to get one.

It's an excellent price for the player then.

I have two of them here, although one has to be returned to staples as the subpack on it had gone fubar. I paid £99 for them when they reduced them last time. (my recepits both show a sku of 8809009956026 though).

I'd definitely recommend the dock for it if you can get one cheap - and the remote has been invaluable for me.

https://www.rockbox.org is a alternate firmware too - gives you lots of control over the player that isn't available as standard (proper gapless playback, crossfade, crossfeed amongst others).

Watch out for final clearance deals in some stores. As one store I visited yesterday had.
40% of clearance above a clearance cabinet.
15% of clearance satnav's.
25% of clearance memory.

They manually added the extra discount at till.

I cleared the shelfs of a few things. Couldn't find the mp3.

Worth about £40 from what I can find....seems like a good price to me!

Always worth having a UPS. I have the 500VA model and in the 2 years I've had it it once was needed and allowed me to shut my system down without loss of data.

Of course it took me two minutes to find out what the beeping was coming from before I got around to powering everything off...

500watt, sorry VA, version marked £39.91, but scans at £19.91.

SKUs are 6 digit, so does anyone know the conversion method from the 13 digit receipt (bar-code ) number?

Buy it! Aside from the UPS it also works as a surge protector for your phone line and the PC UPS software is good.
