Prices on Resources for 70-291 Exam

I will be purchasing the Microsoft 2nd Edition book, Transcenders exams, and CBT Nuggets videos for the 70-291 exam thanks to the recommendations of previous posts. Does anyone have a particular store or reseller they purchase Transcenders or CBT Nuggets through? I was wanting to know if there were certain stores that offer discounts on those products instead of purchasing them directly from the website. Thanks.

You can maybe pick up some used items on Ebay or Amazon. You have to activate Transcender tests, so you might have a harder time finding those. Just make sure you're getting the actual materials and not copies.

I'm in the same boat. I looked for a cheaper price for CBT Nuggets, Transcender, and a few others...they all have a no-resale clause. It looks like the only place you can buy them is from their website. I didnt see them on ebay or amazon.

Thanks for the info! I did a little further research and found a few interesting things. First, if you already have an MCP and access to the MCP website, you can get a 10% discount on CBT Nuggets. This information is directly off of the MCP website. I will definately use that one.

The only information I have found about Transcenders is from the getcertify4less.com website. They offer a Microsoft Transcender Cert Pack - Pro package that includes the test voucher and a download from Transcenders for a test. The website states that the download from Transcenders can be used for the 70-291 exam. The website says the product for that exam is NetCert/Implementation 2003 ( 105 Questions ) Flash included. If you look on Transcenders website, the product they sell is actually 170 questions. Not sure if that is a type-o or not. One of the FAQs on getcertify4less.com states they are authorized to resell Transcender products. I have never used getcertify4less so I don't know if they are a trustworthy company to try. Has anyone used them in the past?

I am ordering my MS book from Barnes and Noble which includes a 15% discount off the Microsoft exam.

I've used them, as well as a couple of friends. No problems at all. Its strange how sites can charge different amouts for the same voucher.
