Yep, Pricegrabber can be pretty handy. As Sean notes, I did mention using it earlier, but didn't bring it to the thread's attention at first (my oversight.) I especially like the Powersearch function on their web site. Try searching for, say, buy.com items with wholesale prices over $75. That'll filter out lots of trivial things like $1.95 cables, and make the list size managable. I find these customizations more useful than their alerts, even. Once they send out an alert, it's likely to mean that the special will be pulled quick, because they've gathered quite a following. Here's a tip: this $10 buy.com coupon can be used for any order over $10, one per customer: buy.com . Check out some of their Microsoft software now, like Picture It, Graphics studio, Flight sim 98, and many others: screaming buys because they're beating other listed prices which are "after rebate," even tho theirs are before rebate. Best, Dave
