    They're not giving a discount to "new" customers, they're giving free delivery to active HEXUS members, which includes new and old customers alike.

    If you think about it this way, you'll only need to make another 17 constructive posts and you get the free delivery anyway..

    Not being funny - what you on? I can not work out why you think you have a 'right' to be able to use the sales area on HEXUS without giving back? Meaning sure - we could do it so you pay a 'sub to HEXUS and then we give it to you without posts?

    Why should you get a 'free ride' and free carriage from SCAN without being part of the community?

    I don't know if scan have thought about it, but giving discounts to new customers and not there present ones could do the same.

    It is not a right - it is an offer.

    The reason they are doing this is due to the HEXUS/SCAN relationship.

    They have seen how much this community has given them.

    I'm on lots of things!
    I do not have the right to be able to use the sales area, that's why I stopped coming here.
    You sent me the e-mail to come here and said quote "If you order online, this *will* save you money"
    I don't want a "free ride" or need free carriage, I pay my money I take my choice.

    ps only 16 to go (edit 15, coming down)

    What an incredible gesture. Scan are competitive in their pricing as it is, removing shipping is a no brainer to always buy from them. I find them cheaper and possibly more reliable than overclockers, so well done guys. Big thumbs up

    I think it's great - Scan have always been incredibly helpful, and often quite surprisingly so - last major order I placed with them was for a new monitor and primary pc - monitor wasn't in stock - called, and they said they would have stock arriving that day, but may be a day or two before dispatch. placed the order - everything was delivered next day - including the monitor!
    If I'd not have had that discussion with the sales guys, I'd have probably gone elsewhere!

    Now - they just need to get some Navman products in - I feel like treating myself to a Navman iCN520 Premium GPS jobbie!

    filbert: chill man. The point of this offer is basicly Scan saying "thanks for the support over the years hexus, so have a present", if you haven't been supporting Hexus, you haven't been supporting Scan.

    Which is why they started the offer. Because the Hexus community has helped Scan a lot with feedback amongst other things and it's their way of saying thanks.

Still its worthwhiole saving on a couple sticks of Ram. Is it not yet active then? I've scoured the various accounts options and managed to miss it!

    how about some of you guys complaining take the time to get involved in the HEXUS community like i have. somehow my posts have built up and i am enjoying every one of them. take the time to fit into the community and you will realise that this offer from SCAN is not the reason to be part of HEXUS but just an added extra to an already buzzing community.

    but if you feel that it isnt fair, it doesnt sound to me like people will miss you, so you will just have to take it from me and a few hundred other members, that you my friends are missing out.

    Nope, it's not active yet, but will be as soon as the tech bods have finished, we *will* be letting everyone know when it goes live
