geez Yanni, come down

anyway, doubt egghead will honor any of the orders, if they do, there goes another egghead shutdown, (do they have any retails stores open anymore?)

Anyone know how I can figure out if this will work in my computer? I've upgraded everything but RAM....

 

[403Forbidden]

what kinda motherboard you got? what cpu is it running?

if you bought it new within the last year or maybe two, this ram should work

 

[DorkBoy]

hi

 

[MuffD]

i think it would have been cool if people didn't order so many so that the others would be able to get in on it as well. fortunately i was lucky to place my order when there were only like 3 posts to this thread. keep your fingers crossed!!!

 

[golfisart]

My bad. After my search the price on the first page is $310.99 but after being told I was wrong I clicked on the item and lo and behold. Of course with 403Forbidden discovering my plan to keep others from doing this deal I will have to destroy... Just kidding. Thanks again and good luck to us all.

 

[403Forbidden]

the longer it Egghead keeps this deal up, the more
I think this is just a ploy to increase customer
base and thus make their company look good
on the books...

Great deal folks. Thanks for posting. I've had a NUMBER of run-ins with Onsale/Egghead deals that have gone bad, so I'm expecting to get nothing, but it is def. worth a try.

We shall see. I'd at least expect the first people to post the deal to get this one (which unfortunately does not include me). Heck, they deserve it for being up so early.

subpar

 

[noxipoo]

someone has to be in the office over there by now thinking why theres 5000 orders for ram. its a ploy i tell you!

 

[BigDave]

Well, Egghead is located in California, and business hours are just starting there. So all the managers are probably just getting in, grabbing their coffees, and are about to see the huge profit margin hit they took overnight... Something will probably change soon...

My first impression when I checked this out was :Q ...!!! Then I tried to register and $#%^@#^ wont let me ARGH... has this happened to anyone... ??? The registration page says after I input all my information:

"We are sorry, but we are unable to process your registration because your form had the following missing or incorrect information:

Your billing address must match the address to which your credit card statements are mailed. If not, your order will be cancelled.

This address is used for account verification purposes only.

To ship to a different address, please fill in the Shipping Information below."

What the F*ck does this mean?? I've tried retyping it over and over... wont work... maybe it's my check card... It's VISA but ..who knowz... HELP!! :disgust: :|

 

[noxipoo]

same thing happened to me, i just changed to a longer password and it worked. my order also fudged up so i clicked again and guess what, the order was placed twice, its ok, 1 gig of ram for $150 isn't bad at all! hahahahah

i'm waiting for the e-mail saying my order has been cancelled, but we have signed you up on our mailing list and heres some stuff you can buy.

 

[fdiskboy]

This is cracking me up. I placed a second order just for the heck of it.

Checked on my first order which showed manual review, but NOW says it's off to the warehouse for processing.

I still expect nothing, but I'm enjoying the "little-kid-at-Christmas-with-a-huge-box-under-the-tree-and-you-know-exactly-what-it-is-because-you-asked-for-it-a-jillion-times" rush.

=)

 

[Mr.Mike]

Wow, I don't think it will ever get shipped, but for 147.00 for 1 gig of ram what the hell, it's worth a try.

 

[perry]

I just ordered 2. Took a screen shot of every screen along the way too. Printed out the reciept. Next day air delivery. We'll see...

 

[ericb]

It is still showing as in stock at a price of $34.85 as of 11:26am EST.

 

[mpitts]

Here is what Kyle from Hard|OCP just had to say about it:

"We reported yesterday that Egghead had PC100 SDRam 256Meg sticks on sale for about $35 each. MANY of you got in on the deal, called and even verified your orders and pricing. Mark Reyes, just emailed and let me know the correct price was around $350 per stick and that Egghead would not be honoring the prices. Bummerrooski."

It doesn't look good.

 

[403Forbidden]

Screen shots are very important in deals like these....twice
the company (Staples) tied to overcharge me...of course with screen shots in hand, I disputed the charges with my credit card company...I don't have to tell you who won

 

[Miklozz]

Thanks noxipoo for the assist.. I changed my password to a longer one... my original password was a #!$# word.. so that's probably why... Thanks again... hopefully this will process..

HAHA..

 

[randomlinh]

oh well, it was worth a shot

Didn't take any screens tho, just printed.

 

[Strych9]

Good luck everyone...but I wouldn't hold your breath. Got my order in for 3.

 

[pogomips]

This has to be the address where you receive your bill.

You can then specify a different delivery address, so long as you have already made arrangements with your credit card company for an alternate delivery address.
