ati 9800 pro 128mb $179.10(w/ coupon) - $50 tradeup = $129.10 !!!!!

[Mr Bob]

The trade up page that shows the price as $199 for the card already includes the price assuming you sent in a card. So you are going to pay the $199+ $50! Then when you send in your card, you get the $50 credited.

You will end up paying $174.10 total (maybe tax too, dunno). If you want to argue w/ me call their # and they will tell you.

I thought it was $129 at first too until I called and talked with someone

Been following this on FatWallet today and there have been a BUNCH of people call ATI about this.

The story has flip-flopped a lot, but most of the most-recent conversations with ATI CSRs indicates that if you lucked up and got into the deal for 199-10% (179.10) and got the Trade-Up form, you will get the complete $50 back (FINAL PRICE: 129.10).

This may change, but that's the current way the wind is blowing.

lol, I called ATI again, they still say the same thing.

According to their site, they have updated the price on the card now to reflect what it should be. However those who already placed their orders will get the card at $129 when you get the $50 credit back.

Where is this trade up form? I ordered through the trade up page but dont see a form anywhere. TIA

 

[brentpresley]

PM me and I will email you the PDF. I saved it just in case ATI decided to delete or change it.

Anybody gotten their card yet? Mine's still on BO (1-2 week wait).
