: Have you called for prices? I called Dirt Cheap Dives for their Fujitsu
: 1 gig hard drive for $199.00 amd the salesman said that the price went up to 
: $229.00 because the the price list is generated 4 months in advance.
: A classic case of being misled. The same wemt for Midwest Micro. I got a
: flyer in the mail advertising a Maxtor 1 gig drive for 209.00, I called
: the NEXT DAY and guess what, $229.00. Remember, prices are subject to change
: after they deliberately advertise a lower price.

There are a few companies advertising in Compute Shopper that consistantly
do this.  Off the top of my head, I can't remember if Dirt Cheap was one
of them or not... but there are lots of decent companies in there, too.
