well that should be interesting to see lol

 

check out amazon.com... i got my D3 for 620 shipped. installed it yesterday and its awesome! still got a few things to figure out, but i'm loving it

 

Bookmarking thread. Thanks for the heads up on this.

 

Another Headsup--> Cartoys has the D3x for $799 which would be a better deal if you want the bluetooth. If you dont' need that then the $699 is still a great deal from an authorized reseller.

 

IM GOING TO GO PICK UP MY AVID-D3 FROM FRY'S!!!!!!!

THEY PRICE MATCH BEST BUY, AND I JUST CALLED PIONEER AND THEY SAID PRICE MATCHING IS NOT DISCOUNTING AND FRY'S IS AN AUTHORIZED DEALER!!!!

Sorry for the caps, but yes, I am yelling!!!!!!! WOooooo

 

Hmm I think CA wants one.

 

I'm having second thoughts....can someone else try calling Pioneer @ 1.800.421.8488 and ask if they will honor the rebate with a price match at Fry's from Best Buy for $699, from $999.

 

lol
if i didn't already buy and install the thing I would call for you but now I have no personal gain from it

 

Hey Curtis.... Guess what's only 599 at Frys? lol

That's $599 after the $200 rebate, so $799 in-store.

 

yes but you'd get the point if u followed the thread. its the whole idea of price matching when best buy was selling it for 699 then rebate.

 

Now the price is legit. I forgot to post up what I found out about the rebate.

I called Pioneer a second time a few weeks ago, and they told me the exact opposite of what they told me the first time; they would not honor the rebate if I price matched at Fry's from BestBuy. But I guess the find you made makes it all good!

I am going to have to hold off on the navi system right now, seeing that I'm getting rims very very soon

 

oh man... 200 bucks rebate... hmm i wonder if amazon works..

 

pretty much pioneer is not gonna give anyone $200 back no matter what......it is really a bait and switch tactic designed to get you to purchse their product and then not giv anyone the rebate based on the rules they decide...........I am starting to lean to the Eclipse........

 

rims & eclipse pwns aviv d3 & lame rebate

 

^x2 FTW!

 

Eclipse quality > Avic?

 

^Yep.........seems to be the better system........navi may not be quite as sharp.......but both have flaws inthat catigory...........

 

eclipse has better sound shaping features such as 7 band parametric equalizer and 5v preouts, and the 2 slots for 1 dvd and 1 nav CD is nice to have. However they won't be as low priced as that Avic D3

 

do the price match at fry's, and get a gift receipt and mail that one to pioneer, that way it's clean of the price-match info.
