    Plantinum? It's premium silly. Unless this one was dipped in platinum.

    All of these overstock coupons are bogus, these exclude items comprised solely of books, movies, VIDEO GAMES and many other items. So you must then find another item that is not in one of the categories to get the discount. Someone suggested 3M hooks that were about $3. Either way, the fact is that Ben's Bargains keeps showing these stupid coupons and THEY ARE NOT WHAT THEY SAY THEY ARE! I emailed Ben or however answers emails for this site and mentioned this when I tried purchasing a 360 with a 12% coupon. This site is really starting to become unreliable.

    Hmmm, yeah I've had it happen before course for Ben to know that, he'd have to read the fine print on every single coupon. I guess he leaves that up to us sometimes when he skips over that stuff. That's why we have these discussion boards!

    all I got to say is, I use one of the coupon, and all I had to add was a $1 pen, and it gave me the discount I wanted. I end up paying $360 after discount.. also I didn't have to pay tax.. it does work..

    If you actually read what I said, it does work, just not the way ben's bargains says, and yet he keeps failing to mention the purchase combo(like he does with every other coupon that requires another purchase, ie:paperclips at office depot) So I will say it yet again: IT DOES WORK, BUT THERE IS A CATCH....!!!!!

    That's a legitimate point but those "tricks" are always the same so every bargain hunter should know to add a 0.01 item to an Amazon order for 24.99 to get the free shipping and to make sure it's bought from Amazon rather than an affiliate and that the prices may have been cheaper in the past.

    All these things aren't as important as the stuff he does include, like the time he said to configure a computer on DELL with expensive upgrades, then go to the checkout cart to add the maximum coupon code, then go back on your browser and reconfigure to the cheaper specefications (lower cost) but still have the large coupon applied to your order. That kind of information is much better than all the others little details.
