Title: Anaconda Camera Deal
Post by: HA Dave on July 20, 2009, 06:50:14 PM
I love the the little X10 cameras!!! They are tuff little work horses that just keep going. I'd like to add another (or two) to my setup. And have been searching the X10 Site (and Internet) for a good Anaconda Camera deal. But I can't find anything other than the standard $49.99 (except a 3 for $129 deal).

Has anyone seen a $39.99 (or $29.99)... or 2 for one deal?

I've seen not the Anaconda but the Nightwatch B/W version for $24.99 if that's any help, here on the x10 sales.

You can get 2 for $79.99 if you phone in and ask for Leeane.

Sorry, I sent a dead link...   :o

Here's one for $49.99 with a free credit card remote set...  http://www.x10.com/key_products/wired-camera.htm (http://www.x10.com/key_products/wired-camera.htm)

and one with a free VCR Commander II and EagleEye http://www.x10.com/promotions/sc23a_ed_motrec_0912.html (http://www.x10.com/promotions/sc23a_ed_motrec_0912.html)

Don't you hate it that they keep ALL the old web pages just floating around and you don't know your deal is bad until you try to order - or worse, when your package comes...   B:(

The pages change so often. Sometimes one seen in the morning that was from yesterday. Disappears later in the day.  :o  ::)

Aah yes, but if you keep the old emails, those deals are usually still good.  The countdown timer often resets and tells you "23 hours left" the next day...  It's all a ploy to "get them before the deal runs out!" or "First 25 only!!"

I think they just send and charge you whatever the internet invoice says, as long as they have it.  And that little disclaimer that says they will send a similar item?  Not in my experience.  They sent what they had, charged me for my whole order (free shipping) and then, about a week after I got the order, they credited back my credit card for the discontinued items.  I guess I benefitted, because without those items, I would not have made the $49.99 minimum for free shipping, so I shouldn't complain.

Alright - I found one...

2 for $79.99 you say?  How about a wired low-light camera for $24.99?

OK so I saw 2 wired nightwatch for $40 but still no deals on anacondas. Are the anacondas really that much better or just not that popular enough to have a deal on?

I think people want "night vision". I like COLOR.

I gotta tell you, I am stumped.   B:(

I used to pride myself on finding deals (with the tricks I learned in the forum) but nothing on the color Anacondas!    :(

What Gives, X10  ???

No.... and I really wanted to. But I took up bicycling this past season.... and was astonished at the amount of gear I needed. I don't think astonished.... was the word my wife used. So I had to be careful about my purchases.

And now... X10 has white cameras and Eye-sensors which I don't have ANY of. Not to mention.... I don't know how I am going to live without a Android phone. It's always something!
