500GB Maxtor External Drive for only $165 +$7.50 Shipping

racing87stang

I got a deal on a few of these and I wanted to see if anyone here wanted their hands on it. These sell for roughly almost $300 in the stores. Including Newegg.

If you don't like Maxtor well don't worry for some reason these actually have Seagate drives in them. Or at least the one I took apart Did.

Let me know whos interested. I do take Paypal, and Money Orders.

PM me.

Specs:

500GB (roughly betwee 465-480 Usuable Space)
16MB Cache
7200RPM

Seagate Part Number for the HDD: ST3500360A

+5V 0.72A
+12V 0.52A

Thanks fellas.

I might take one, but it wouldn't be until after Christmas more than likely. So if you've still got one then I'll PM you or post.

I am interested in picking one of these up for myself as a back up drive.

Would you be able to accept PayPal? I prefer that method of payment over money orders via snail mail. I would be able to purchase tomorrow (December 15th).

I was curious as to the status of the hard drive I purchased. I still haven't received it, nor any notice of it's expected arrival date.

The only notification I received was that it was going to be shipped. However, when I check the tracking number provided, it gives me the following message:

Label/Receipt Number: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX (I removed the number)
Status: Electronic Shipping Info Received

The U.S. Postal Service was electronically notified by the shipper on December 16, 2006 to expect your package for mailing. This does not indicate receipt by the USPS or the actual mailing date. Delivery status information will be provided if / when available. No further information is available for this item.

A reply via email would be preferred.

sorry for not getting back to you sooner. I will send out another. I dropped it off almost 2wks ago. I filed a claim and hopefully before their expected 120 day clear time I will have a check. I am sorry about that. Also just wanted to state that the USPS tracking system only gives 2 scans, receipt and delivery.

Luckily I still have another left.

Ok, sounds good. Just keep me posted of anything I should know. I'd say you should go down to the post office and go postal on them, but I think they might be better at going postal, so it might not work. lol

Still no email with a confirmation number or anything. Still no box on my front stoop with a hard drive in it. I give up.

I don't know if you're trying to ship it to the wrong address or whatever the problem may be. I'd like to assume that this was all just a series of unfortunate events and not me getting ripped off.

However, at this point I would just like my money back. You can keep the amount for the original shipping cost of your first attempt, ($7.50 as stated in the subject line) and just return my $165.

Please contact me. (even if it's just to tell me that you ripped me off and aren't going to give me my money back)
