AGP and PCI.
If you don't know what AGP is then buy PCI . AGP is a special port in your computer which is used to connect a video card. You can also buy a PCI version which would connnect in the same way as a sound card or a NIC.

Well, I ordered 9 of these babies for $99 plus $4.12 shipping totals to $103.12 Let's see if they live up to this ~~~

edit: Seems like he can run with the $$$, however he has a business and is registered with ALL paypal, bidpay, and yahoo. Though I'm questioning my 9 orders now, heh, if things get hot he'll just have to refund those of us who payed via paypal. I know I retained my printouts and transactions...

edit: Duckers, I haven't had any problems with PayPal. Signed up with them a while back too. However, you may want to go read that new thread a couple mins ago about someone else's experience with it...

 

[myztikal47]

Disclaimer found! Went back onto their webpage under info and found the following:

Prices- If we have mis-marked the price on a product, we will notify you before we ship your order. At that time you will have the opportunity to change or cancel your order if we are unable to ship the order at the incorrect price.

DOH! >=)

Ok, here's the deal:

I ordered 40.

Here's why I don't think I'm crazy.
I originally ordered 10 then another 10 by entering my credit card into the credit card fields, even though the PayPal payment method was selected. Then I realized that he wants you to finish your order, get an order number, and send the money via PayPal with the order number included. So I ordered 20 more this way, and sent the payment for all 40 in one payment. It was around 500 bucks. The first 2 sets of 10 I ordered, I was in such a hurry that I thought the UPS Business shipping was 38 bucks because there were so many, so I ordered them and paid 38 bucks each for shipping. After I realized I could do UPS residential, I did this for the remaining 20. I wouldn't have sent the PayPal payment for all 3 orders (including the first 2 with expensive shipping), except that I was thinking they might honor maybe the first X number of customers to buy them.

It looks like a legit business. Myz found it by searching for a Voodoo3 through Yahoo. Nodandoon.com is part of Yahoo business. I don't think you can get your business listed and set up overnight. Especially not with Yahoo's security and protection seals all over the place. It takes weeks even to get a website listed in Yahoo's Yellowpages or regular search engine. Besides, the Nodandoon website, though not perfect, has listings for all kinds of hardware, and good descriptions for them also. I don't think it was thrown up overnight. The address is listed as being in San Jose, and is also given with a suite number. So even if it's home-based, the guy at least has an office where he operates out of. Besides, I live in San Fran, so if things go sour for us, I'll take a drive down there and pay him a visit

They claim to be "liquidators," so I guess there is a *remote* possibility that he needs to get rid of these because of overstock or going out of business, but I seriously doubt it. I saved a bunch of pages for proof, including the receipts, of course. All I can really say is I hope it goes through.

If it does, ... sweet.

For those who have a Yahoo! Wallet, you can use your credit card.

====

n/m, they don't accept credit card as a possible payment option.

 

[Duckers]

[sarcasm]Richard, you are going to sell me one, aren't you ? [/sarcasm]

 

[ShutUpRichard]

Krunk-

It doesn't work, I tried that also. It lets you go through the process, but once you actually try to pay, it is not accepted.

Edit: Duckers.. if it works? HELL YEAH!

 

[Duckers]

Edit: ok

 

[goog40]

[AnimEva]

the store is under Yahoo, and yahoo is very big, so can't we complain to yahoo, the CC and call them if they take our money and run?

 

[Bleeding Jawa]

Richard, all I can say is "Good Luck"

You are a braver, more ambitious man than I.

 

[ShutUpRichard]

Now I know what venture capitalists feel like.

Except I'm risking 500, not five million...

 

[Duckers]

some Info taken from: http://store.yahoo.com/nodandoon/info.html

Please note, we do not hold products in anticipation of receiving your payment. Orders are filled only AFTER payment is received and has cleared our bank. This means we could run out of stock on an item while your payment is being delivered to us. If this happens, we will notify you via email and we will return your payment to you.

Bad luck guys

 

[Duckers]

that means bad luck Richard
