just print out the ad then you are golden..

I just called the amex BVG line and asked if they raised the price later, would I still get my discount. They said it doesn't matter as long as I have a printout.

its so tempting to order 1. but everybody knows (including me) that the price might be an error.

If i don't order and they fulfill the orders, i'm gonna kick my self in the head and give me a MAJOR wedgy!!

It states that they have it in stock, so I went ahead and picked up one for the wife's Tualatin 1.5GHz/1.5MB Rig. Very nice find, thanks a bunch! I love the Hot Deals Forum

this is too good to not try for. I've been wanting an upgrade to my 15" lcd

if they don't honor it, well, then I won't have to spend the money. If they do, I'll sell my current 15" for enough to basically cover the new one.

I thought that AMEX stopped doing BVG's to online vendors?

Does anyone have the AMEX BVG number? I have a Optima card.

I think your wife needs a little more than 1.5MB, Don't you think? I'm guilty of giving my wife the "hand me down" Duron750, but you're pretty bad~~ I mean what can you do with 1.5MB???

actually i posted the thread 1 hour before it appeared on f@twallet. once it hits f@twallet, its over. that thread has over 5k page views already. hoards of ebay sellers probably decended upon said deal.

the unit specs are bogus. so don't feel too bad if it gets canceled.

many sites say they have stock when they don't. seems it doesn't get updated until there are people at work again atleast thats in my experience. considering the number of orders by now, i have trouble believing the business is that well stocked.



the anandtech review

it blurs. its ok for text and sucks horribly for games.


its contrast ratio is also bunk. its kinda dim


its got problems with standby mode funking up its auto adjustment settings.


its not a monitor you'd buy for regular price apparently, its kinda sh*tty compared to the competition. hopefully they are dumping this lemon.

if it ships, then its a decent 2ndary monitor.

I heard 5/1/03.

Can't think of a better way to sue them up

Ordered 5000.







J/k, I did order one using a private payment # on my amer express. they have very good ratings on resellerratings. I'm sure its a pricing error. As long as they don't charge my account for any other amount than what this current price is then I have no problem if they deny the order. I don't think they can charge you for an error anyways can they? I mean at least without notifiying you first. I also made some screen shots threwout the order process.

Seems the balance is already pending on my checkcard...funny how they can charge you in 2 seconds, but a refund takes days

Techonweb deals are crap (pricing errors) and should be banned on Anandtech.

How many times before have they done this, offer a Ludicrous low price, then cancel hundreds of orders. Nothing but a waste of time.
