Most of us got the legit one for the same price several months ago why pay the same for a refurb?
 
Maybe someone missed out on the deal, and doesn't mind having a refurbed item.

$54.99 was a constant battle between Amazon and Newegg for a few months at multiple times. I'm quite sure they will be $54.99 again. Kinda defeats the purpose to buy a refurb for the same price. :confused:

I agree. Plus I refuse to buy from that chappy business.

Sorry I don't want to bring reality in this, however the price has only been down for a few days during the holiday shopping rush:

If someone wants a sound card, this is a good deal unless they want to wait for Black Friday 2014.

Not worth the effort from what Ive seen of buyers from that company. Far too much hassle and delay in shipping.
