Are they a reliable vendor?

 

[AintSkerd]

You won't have any troubles with MC unless the made major pricing errors they reneg on. Nationwide, many storefronts.

how well do this thing overclock?

 

[Moto450fyz]

I have used them in the past a few times and they were real good and they shipped fast.

 

[typh00n]

I've been waiting for a <$200 one, thanks.

 

[vetanix]

Wow, these guys sell the q6600 for $365.

 

[fluxion]

I have a feeling they're going to cancel mine, so I'm holding off on my Newegg order for the rest of my parts.

I doubt they'll cancel, it's not a price mistake. They just haven't price gouged like the e-tailers, some places have it for under 200, but shipping kills those deals. This is only $20 cheaper than most places.

Even pricing errors they are decent on. I remember the Asus A8N SLI Deluxe (939) they had listed for like $34. They honored one per person. I was a very happy person

that's odd. i was at the store today and saw it priced at $289. even with a 5% MA tax, that's not too bad, but their online price seems kind of high.

 

[darktiger]

Wow, the are selling the Q6600 the same price as Newegg

They have some thing going where they basically Match Newegg/Zipzoomfly's price on Tuesday and keep it there all week or something.

I was just there yesterday, and I think the Q6600 was $299 retail boxed instore.

Just got the MC Flyer

it has the Core 2 Quad Q6600 Boxed Processor $289.00

 

[[+Duracell-]]

They match Newegg's CPU prices every Tuesday and Friday morning.

 

[jaegertech]

Very, very tempting. Now DFI just needs to get off their asses and release their P35 board.

Yeah, that's the one I have too, came on Sat. Store near me is out of stock until next week though, hopefully it will go down more by next week.

Are they a reliable vendor?

Yep, they have stores out here in northern california and elsewhere I believe also. Bought my Chimei 22" from them like 3 months ago for $240.

They didn't do the same for me. That was one of the errors I was talking about. The other was an ATI AIW something or another.

 

[zamardii]

How is that better than my E6700?

 

[Jimmy the Greek]

They were about to ship mine, but then I got cold feet and canceled. But that goes to show that it's real.

 

[sLOWMAN]

I went in the store after work. Price was $189+tax for me ($203+ change total out the door). Everywhere was plastered about how they are trying to web-price match on select items a couple of times a week. Tag on the case said the deal expires 8/31/07..

 

[ManCannon]

So it will stay this low until the end of August? Here's hoping, because I can probably swing it by then. I'm willing to bet we'll see other vendors around this price soon anyway, but just in case they aren't it's good to have a place that's keeping this around the price I expected to pay for it.

 

[ppilot]

When you press the buy button, an error comes up I guess I will have to wait until tomorrow to check this out.
