 Topic: Military CustomersPosted: 22 May 2012 at 7:47am |

Good morning,
I recently ordered my new rig and it's still being built, and I was just curious if military customers get any kind of discounts or specials? Thanks! |

I asked the same question when i ordered my first computer from DS in 2007 to make a long story short they said they don't offer military discounts but that was 5 years ago. |

There needs to be a military discount past and present vets! Your proof would be a copy of your DD214 all employers take for verification. This would show Digital Storm recognizes the services the troops have given for the freedom everybody takes for granted. Vets that have lost there arms and legs. Vets that are still suffering today that happened in the past.Iam a VET and proud to of served my country! President JFK said : Ask not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country. DIGITAL STORM the ball is in your corner. Please respond!

It doesn't even have to be a big discount or anything; maybe they could toss in a free piece of equipment like a gaming mouse or gaming keyboard? Just a thought.

If yall even had a small military 'thing' on your site - youd get more business for sure.Hell - Might even be tax writable.

We do offer a discount to active duty members, it's a small amount only because our desktops are aggressively priced (Marauder, ODE, and laptops). |

I am also a disabled vet (damaged my back and head in a ied rollover) it would be nice if disabled vets receive a small discount thanking for our service and sacrifice.

Hey guys, I just spoke with the sales team. DS gives a small 1.5% military discount except for three products: the Marauder, Ode, and Laptops. The reason being is because these systems are already heavily discounted. If you don't have one of these devices, call the sales team for your discount.

Once again DS shines.
I was expecting Alex to reply with something to the effect of "Thank you for your suggestion, but please don't tell us how to price our products." And he would be justified in doing so.
But instead DS thoughtfully offers a discount for the brave men and women actively serving to keep the country in which DS operates the land of the free and home of the brave.
You're a class act, DS.
 As we head into Memorial Day weekend, let's remember and thank our military folks past and present for their serivce.
