Asus V9999 Ultra//GeForce6800Ultra $139

[Daveyiv]

I couldn't find that this had been posted before, but PCHardware4U has this card for $139 if it isn't a price error.

Thanks for the link to this deal, but it is already covered in another thread.

newegg

This is obviously a price error, this card is going for $600 elsewhere.

Here are the resellerratings for this store: Link

Only 10 reviews, a lifetime rating of 4.00. According to some of the reviewers, they are run by A2Z computers, which has a lifetime resellerrating of 3.57: Link

I'm not going to take the risk.

 

[winzonly]

i don't know how the lifetime rating works... but if you click on it... 8 reviews scored 10 and ~3 scored low

 

[Theslowone]

If you read one of the reviews, not saying its true, they said that a2z and pchardware4u are the same company. And a2zs reviews are 2.22 over the last 6 months.

that poor site...

Youd be crazy to tie up $139 with this shady company...though its still tempting.

 

[r0bVious]

You bet, BentValve. Sheesh, I don't even have the real money to spend (Car Insurance payment coming up), but I'm so close... I'm closing my browser now and getting a cold shower >_<

Well I have several grand sitting around and its on a visa so, they jack me around one way or the other and it wont be pretty.

 

[Balthazar]

Oh and yeah I will be suprised (yay christmas for me!) if it ships but, its not like they can really keep our money. If you use a credit card and you tell them these guys wont give your money back it wont be long before you see something happen.

But I'm optimistic.

is this a legit deal???? if i sign up and it turns out to be a price error and they don't want to refund, can't i go to my bank? thanks.

 

[Balthazar]

Yes.

That wasnt descriptive sorry, yes you can goto your bank, who knows if its legit.

 

[Todd33]

We shall see, I can always have the CC company refund me and deal with them.

 

[jeffjones66]

I'll bet $100 right now that your order gets cancelled.

 

[conlan]

Anyone who takes the chance and orders one might be wise to use a one-time or virtual cc# from their cc company.

 

[JSt0rm]

I am fully confident in visa to refund and or cancel my cc if any crazy stuff happens. Using a chack card on something like this would be dumb imho. What I hope is no jackasss trys to order 100 of these from them and they don't notice them going out the door. Just dreaming though.

I'm sure there are one or two out there already placing large orders.

Don't use a debit card.

 

[gshock888]

looking at their site design you actually wouldnt think their review is so bad... anyhow i took the plunge with the work credit card. my coworker somehow got his card number stolen and somebody place a huge order and they immediately flagged it. so its safe.

besides its only 150 bucks which is nothing for companies... i hope it goes through i'll just say i was tired one night and used the wrong CC and pay them back the money when i have to fill out expense form, or just write it off... lol

[Gunbuster]

In Baby!

 

[gshock888]

the pic doesnt look like the newegg's asus card... hmmm but even if they send me a regular 6800 or LE this is hot

 

[BentValve]

Id liken this deal to buying a lottery ticket.

 

[imported_Roman]

I want to take my chances, but I don't get paid til Friday. This sucks

 

[NorthBear]

Well I'm in. Using virtual CC number. Not really expecting this to fly but who knows?

 

[Geforce man]

be VERY careful, check www.resellerratings.com for these guys, they have almost 100% NEGATIVE feedback, and it appears as if they are another company under a new name because the other one had such negative reseller rattings.
