$65 2600+ Barton sure looks tempting. Too bad it's Tiger.

the only problem people have with tigerdirect is its rebates, and ive done fine with my rebates there.

tigerdirect, RUN!

nice prices - thanks for the info

Why does every post involving tiger direct turn into a big tiger bashing thread ? I've personally had no problems with them.

If you order one, let us know if it arrives

Not true, Redass. They are an unethical company and provide your credit card information to third parties without your permission or knowledge.


"Why does every post involving tiger direct turn into a big tiger bashing thread ? I've personally had no problems with them."

Rupster - many people on this board have had problems with the unethical Tiger ! Their reutation is documented on many consumer protection sites. This Link, and This One will help you understand. There are many more stories in the naked city !

Rebates are anywhere from $20-$50.

Too bad this isn't Newegg or Mwave....

i was about to say that, 11.34 for shipping and thats the cheapest available, try going truck, lol
125 dollars
so for a barton 2500+ would be:-
59.99 + 11.34 = 71.33

about 3 over dollars cheaper then newegg's 75 bucks free shipping

Op, take no offense for posting the deal, the issue is the company not the deal. People responding in this forurm are doing a great service by warning others of problems that can happen with this company. Tiger has repeatedly burned many people, and the forums are a good way of fleshing out a good deal verses a gamble for a good deal at any company. Here are the issues in a nutshell:
1. Do you want to deal with an ethical company and maybe spend a few bucks more for a product, or deal with an unethical company and save a few bucks?
2. When you look at your total cost of product + shipping how much did you save over a company like Newegg? ( the 2500 processor for me is around $73 shipped after rebate, Newegg is $75 no rebate) and is it worth the risk.
3. What are your chances of getting the rebate? I got about half-dozen rebates back from tiger, two were major headaches-but I did get them, other people I know did not. Luck of the draw, but now I feel I used up my luck since then and that was years ago.
4. If your order doesn't work, what are your chances of getting your money back or a replacement in a timely manner?
5. When you read over and over all the warnings, do you think your transaction will be different....just.. because.. something?
Personally I need-ok want- a 2500 but I absolutely will buy from newegg because of the reasons above.

Ps. White bear lake is a north suburb of Minneapolis/StPaul Mn and are a large rebate center like Young America
