I am banned from purchasing from Staples.com as a result of the infamous Staples coupon ordeal. Anyone know how I can get around this? Do they go my address, credit card, name, etc.? __________________ Well not for sure what they use to ban you but when you call for support via phone they can pull up all your information by your telephone number. That is more then likely what they use to ban you from the website too.~NiceMann |

Getting Around Staples.com Ban??
For All Clinton Haters! =)
__________________ ...now, THAT'S funny!__________________ hehe... Ya.. I have that one and I LOVE it. ------------------ §=-Sp34dFr34k-=§ __________________ Now that's funny. Hey Jenny, you should also post this picture over at Speedfreak's "Funny Picture!" thread. It'll be perfect over there too.__________________ That is hilarious, Jenny. Do you think they'll be posting those things up in New York anytime soon?  __________________ ROFLMAO __________________  quote: Joke from http://gwar.savvy.com/~phil/comedy/clinton.html [This message has been edited by Sjarred (edited 06-07-2000).] __________________    Sorta R-rated: http://www.digitalland.com/Mall/A/an...on/Clinton.avi ------------------ §=-Sp34dFr34k-=§ __________________ Hmm... those pics are kinda "inappropriate" but i don't mind __________________ lol hahaha that first one was great.__________________  __________________ Hey you all Clinton haters! To be honest I like Bill, to me he is a great dude! As KidRock said, he could be a good pimp. But seriously I do like him as a politician as well as a human. Hilary on the other hand..... can't stand!! No way she will ever represent NY State. Her double faced image pisses me off. And her position about EVERYTHING is in the middle ALWAYS. __________________ I despise Bill Clinton. This piece of crap will slither away after literally leaving his stain on the White House (The People's House!) with his disgusting, contemptuous actions.  He has wasted his intelligence and talent on self indulgent, misogynistic behaviour.

Already my system is screaming for more adrenaline due to the lack of good deals this evening. When is Staples when you need a good deal, you know? I've already done 2 purchases with them this week. Must... have... more... deals...And less free milk, Jelly Bellies, and Nutrition bars (and wow does that company spam every day).

I need a Knife
Going deep sea fishing next week. I want a survival knife that has everything and looks cool. The problem is, I don't know anything about knives. Can anyone point me to good quality knife manufacturers? I don't want a cheap made-in-china, about to rust knife. __________________ How's this one? 14" Survival Knife with a waterproof handle. Packet in handle contains a compass, fishing line, hooks and weights, matches, and various wires. The heavy duty leather sheath has a hone stone. The blade has a sharp saw on the back. The point is sharpened on the back all the way to the saw teeth! 440C Stainless Steel with a hardness of ~54 Rockwell C. Overall length is 14", Blade length is 9". Available in silver or black. $38.40 __________________ Hmm.. maybe a Leatherman would be more useful... __________________ hey leon, are you just going to keep posting to yourself?? hehe. just kidding. that first knife looks really cool! i've watched these sword and knife home shopping channels before and have seen some pretty amazing stuff. if you have anything like that in your area, be sure to check it out!__________________ Go for the survival knife, Leon. You can use it for other activities besides gutting fish; like gutting rabbits and deer (in self-defense, of course).__________________ Just make sure you don't drop it on your foot.__________________ I remember that time I had to gut a cow in self-defense. The sucker had almost got to me, then I gouged out its hamburger and had dinner.Fuz ------------------ -So I sez to him, getch yer own monkey. __________________ Leon really better make sure it doesn't cut off little leon. {shades of Lorenna "the slicer" Bobbit} __________________ quote: Hey, what's wrong with made-in-china products??? __________________ quote: They're made in China. __________________ NOTE: If I have offended anyone with the above statement, please forgive me. I deeply apologize. It was meant in good humor; and was not meant to be offensive at all.__________________ Yeah man, we know you were just messing around. However, I'm not quite sure about your other statment in the "Insect Suk" thread. (j/k)quote: __________________ Oh man, I'm dying from the "little Leon" post. SBP, I've missed you and your beautifully illustrated posts. Thank God you didn't put a pic up for "little Leon". Only Jenny would have appreciated that.Kill a rabbit in self-defense? Like those giant 8 feet fuzzy pink man-eating kind? Man, I think you guys have had one too many puffs on the ole Peace Pipe if you know what I mean. As far as the Made In China thing, what he meant to say was electronics and metal workings imported to this country from China blatantly suck. Hey, I call them as I see them. My coworker and good friend who just came over from mainland China just 3 years ago even admits to this. What we don't get from China are their good products like their leather goods and silks. You think Italian leather is all that? Think again my friend. Leather from India and China is the best quality in the world. Hmm, when did I start studying American consumerism? Gotta stop watching Nova. ------------------ Ço£o§§ü§ - yeah you can read into it... __________________ You got it, colossus. Have you ever seen a swiss army cheapie from china? I certainly don't want to be stuck on a desert island with that. It'll probably rust!__________________ Leon,Get a leatherman wave. Mine cost $70. It was a bday gift actually. But I saw it at target for $50 recently on sale...i don't know if it's still on sale. There is also a tool adapter for $25 or so that'll fit any 1/4" hex bits. This is VERY handy for computer nerds like us. I'm going to pick one of those up soon. http://www.equipped.com/wave.htm check out that page. Very good review. I find this tool indispensible. I also have a leatherman micra on my keychain and that's been very useful too. I have more gadgets on my keychain than keys. Have fun leon. |

Emotions : the perfect being..
__________________ Without emotions the human race would be nothing but a mindless instinct driven mass of useless flesh. I believe that if all we did was run around like ants gathering food just to prolong our lives we would be extinct. This is because I think there would be no progression of technology because noone would wish to better him/herself or to create something more usefull than a rock.Imagine a person who feels no fear or wonder when a lion walks by. The lion is humgry and eats the person. Nobody would care so lions could have people for lunch every day. Good for them, bad for us. With this in mind, I would have to say emotions dramatically enhance human kind. But as to the question of perfection, I have to say that since perfection can be either a fact or opinion depending on the subject I can't choose yes or no. There can be valid points made for both options and I don't believe that a consensus could be made. Fuz ------------------ -So I sez to him, getch yer own monkey. __________________ hmmm.. Yes. I have emotions. I am a Human Bean [ ]. I am not Vulcan or Borg.  ------------------ §=-Sp34dFr34k-=§ |
It is just me or ....
in icq2000 you can add/remove almost all the useless bars __________________ Is it me or is ICQ getting way too big.There are soo many bars and icons now that my contact viewable area is less then the bars and icons They really should redesign it so that is simpler to use. the simple mode plain sucks cause can't even clik online and groups and AL but the advanced mode is way to crowded I just can't stand having to close it when playing games or something since takes up too much memory  O btw does anyone know a way of not letting the icq screen shrink when res change during a game? hate needing to re adjust it when coming out of a game. |
Free Voodoo5 for Existing Voodoo3 users
Hey guys, first off, just relax a bit. If people are stealing left and right, that doesn't mean you have to get all worked up about it. Maybe you should shoot them (e.g. looters), but don't get worked up. __________________ Well, as for my opinion on this thread, a person should take responsibility for his reaction. If he gets caught, then he definitely deserves it. If not caught, then he is just lucky.------------------ Anybody interested in aftermarket auto parts, check out www.tuning-garage.com, all GotApex Forum members will get discounts, just let me know. __________________ I wholeheartedly agree with what Pycho just wrote. There really is no gray area in this situation. Fraud is fraud, no matter how you try to justify it.As for someone not getting caught, what comes around, goes around. Karma can be a bitch __________________ This is just pathetic. Because of people like him that we pay premium for our goods. If a store looses money to thugs like him, it has to recover the loss from legitimate customers like you and I.This is one of the reasons why I don't touch returned products @ Fry's (and they charge full price on returned items!). __________________ Well, some may consider this stealing. Nontheless, it is always good to start a contreversial post. Here is a step by step guide:1) take your voodoo3 out of your PC, bring it with you to fry's (leave it in the car) 2) Purchase a Voodoo5. 3) Open the box, replace with voodoo3 right away 4) return voodoo 5 5) enjoy voodoo 5 __________________ too bad frys check em...... oh well...still waiting for onvia to get their stock in... $269 - $25 then rebate... hmmm can't remember where the rebate was from... back to searching[This message has been edited by loup (edited 06-14-2000).] __________________ fry's doesnt care. I have done it twice. I upgraded my voodoo2 to a voodoo3 3000. From PCI->AGP and it was much bigger. Kaching. And also the voodoo 3 -> 5 also worked. If you say I just bought it, and the requirements for the card are too high for my old PC. They will just take it back__________________ yeah thats pretty sketchy. wouldnt work at Best Buy...it is stealing though, even though i'm not super opposed to it... __________________ it's a$$holes like you guys that piss me off SO much. i went to micro center to buy another network interface card. however, i found a netgear 5 port hub and 2 network card set on the return rack for $40. sweet deal i thought - the return sticker said that the package was complete and functional. trusting the sticker, i purchased the set, only to find out when i got home that the network cards were not in the box. just two empty anti-static bags. i was so completely pissed!! i had driven about half an hour in rush hour traffic (with gas being at $2/gal) only to find out that i have to drive back there again!! geez!! is there anyway that stores can track items such as these, so that if returns are abused, they have record of who last purchased the item. theft should be charged to such individuals!! sorry to blow off steam, but when i read that post and someone admitted to it actually working, i was pissed.__________________ I too have sinned....I been carry this for a year now.... I did exactly what he did...bought Voodoo3 and return them the voodoo3 box with the voodoo2......It was at best buy.... It works... Oh forgive me..... Since we are talking sketchy...why dont ya get that leather chair from staple with the discount.....and then take the invoice that arrive with the chair, back to the store: Staples, and return it for a full refund. The invoice, I am sure of, only have the full price of the item... Sketchy Very very sketchy.... Sim __________________ Plain and simple, that is not a deal, that is stealing, fraud, what ever you want to call it. I hope the stores find out and you guys get charged, its not better than you walking in there and stealing it from them. I think its just wrong, and I am opposed to this post trying to justify it as a good deal. I agree with coleslaw, but I won't use profanity here to describe your actions.__________________ WoW !! From legitimate deal hunting to downright theft. Why don't you just shoplift the damn thing right off the shelf. Morally, it's the same thing.Apex, my humble opinion is that this thread should be quashed, along with the user name of some @$$hole promoting outright theft. __________________ I just want to know what you have to say to them when they realized you have pulled the swap. What do you say "Oh i'm sorry I didn't know you couldn't swap cards like that"__________________ I had a friend back in high school who did this, but mostly with software and games. His brother had one of those plastic wrapping machines, so he would go to Walmart or something and buy a PC games, take the CD (just the CD) out of the box, and then use the machine to rewrap the the box. It's almost like he never opened the box before, therefore, when he try to return it, the people working there didn't say anything because they thought it was never opened. Yeah, it's downright stealing and illegal, but when he told me about it, I just thought it was so freaken funny, but I also felt sad for person opening the CD case and finding it empty.__________________ Stealing is so wrong, I hope you get your ass caught.__________________ I seriously think that's crossing the line when it comes to "deals" down to , as someone said, downright stealing. If you somehow find a way for a company to give you the card w/o hurting other customers and without fraud, then I'd give you credit for that.If you resort to stealing as your "Deal", then you're no better than those who break into peoples' cars and steal a stereo. I can't judge you on what you do so I can't say I hope you get caught, but I think it's a serious problem when your own conscience can't stop you from doing stuff like that ------------------ Victor http://psychokid.com http://rurouni.org [This message has been edited by psycho- (edited 06-14-2000).] __________________ i wouldnt call returning the chair to staples without the instant rebate "outright theft"...__________________ That's a great deal but I've got a even better deal for you :Wait 'til they close up at night and take a rock and smash the window and take all the stuff you like Seriously try this, and don't go grabbing any small stuff, just go right for the big ass TVs or even the Refrigerators and if they catch you tell them "I'm an @$$hole, just look at the deal I posted @ gotapex !" I'm sure they'll feel bad for you because you're obviously not all there ! PS PATHETIC ! __________________ When I saw this topic, I was like kewl. I currently have a VooDoo 2, and you can trade in a VooDoo 3 for a VooDoo 5? I was like, I'll just purchase a VooDoo 3 and trade it for a VooDoo 5. Im not implying Im going to do what Y2J did. I just thought it was a promotional thing, like Diamond once have, I believe they still have it, that you can give them your old Diamond stuff for new stuff and pay off the difference. Guess, I was suckered by the Topic heading. It would be Cewl if 3Dfx allowed you to do that though. oh well, anyway I don't like to pay *alot* for video cards, so I wait until they get to the $100 range. Hey, my voodoo 2 still runs great with any game out there, *except* for one. Which is Daikatana. I have a P2 400 with 196MB RAM, and it was like running Duke Nukem 3D with a 486 back then...Downright choppy! Stay away from Daikatana... __________________ quote: Cewl haha thats a new one...  __________________ It's very unfortunate that Y2J thinks that this is a great plan. Fry's probably doesn't even care, since some other customer gets worked over by your scheme. Think of it this way, you're not really stealing from Fry's (which at the very best would be considered questionable since they are evil), you are stealing from other customers. Either some other person buys it and doesn't know it, so they get a terrible deal, or Fry's realizes it and just raises prices to compensate. Morally despicable....If there is justice, I pray that Y2J buys a new Voodoo6 and swaps in his Voodoo5, only to find that there is a Voodoo2 in the box, and he can't return it. __________________ I would love to take advantage fo this one...but I use an ATI all in wonder because i need the TV tunner...ohh well__________________ What the hell is this? As someone said to a thief (like you) a while back: this is a deals, not steals, board.I hope you get caught. __________________ I really don't see a deal that any good hearted GotApex? member would take advantage of.So, Why is this in the deals section? ------------------ §=-Sp34dFr34k-=§ __________________ "...some may consider this stealing..."Well Y2J, let's see here... The U.S. Government would consider it stealing. Any major religion would consider it stealing. Anyone with a shred of morals would call it outright stealing. So how could an immoral unamerican thief like this guy Y2J become a Senior member? Apex, if you really care about this board you'll kick off this sleazeball. __________________ So many response posts to this. Reminds me of the problem with classrooms where the problem child takes all of the teacher's attention away from the good kids (er deals). I'll tell you what Y2J, if I run across a free b/w stiped shirt I'll be sure to post it so you can have one your new home. Stealing with a value over $100 is grand larceny, look into it. __________________ Granted, Fry's is a piece of CHIT, but getting over is what's fun. Stealing is easy, but getting a legitimate good deal is much more satisfying. ..~-_-~..To each his own I guess, after all, some people might not like it if I broke their arms in the Fry's return line! __________________ I thought grand larceny was $500 dollars. But either way i think it's wrong to scam store out of their hard earn money..------------------ Check out www.MadCool.com __________________ Not kewl at all, y2j you're just a phool. If you're supa dope at all you would apologize for even starting this thread. Stealing is just wrong! The only thing I been know for stealing is the girls hearts.__________________ I have to agree... that is a very weak move. Only bitch-ass thieves pull stuff like that.It's like those dikless F___ers who have thier friends vandalize their car so they can get a new paint job or that "cool new" groundFX kit that's popular at the time, paid for by their insurance company. My rising insurance costs pay for $hit like that and stores have to raise prices to cover potential theft... for situations like this. DON'T STEAL. Wiggle a deal, read the fine print... take full advantage of a promotion within its written rules, but DON'T STEAL. Dave. [This message has been edited by Dave_7 (edited 06-14-2000). |
