Newegg on drugs again?

LLano CPUs. The refurbished ones cost more than the brand-new ones, and the brand-new ones include a heatsink!

Edit: I find it amusing that Newegg is claiming that the original price of those CPUs were $199.99. I don't believe that they were ever at that price, even at introduction.

Link doesn't work for me.

The link results in a partial command structure. I tried a new link - same result. Something rings true in your question.

I'll try a different one: http://www.newegg.com/CPUs-Processors/Category/ID-34

OK, that works. Type Llano in keyword box and go. It's a work around.

It was working - now it stopped. What is Newegg smoking? Maybe it's the forum?

Fixed that for you.

Newegg does have some goofy pricing for open box and refurbs at times. Depending on the manufacturer breaks they get for new ones it can make no sense to buy used.

Larry, I thought you gave up on Newegg months ago.

Larry has a long history of giving up on Newegg.

One does not simply give up on newegg.... lol :biggrin:


But seriously, it really comes down to the big 3 for online computer part purchases, tiger direct, newegg,or the occasional amazon. Those who have a Frys, or Microcenter nearby are in luck.
