Follow along with the video below to see how to install our site as a web app on your home screen.
Note: This feature may not be available in some browsers.
The domain and website were auctioned off the other day, so whoever owns them now has probably reverted the site back to its pre closeout form so they can figure out what they will do with it next. Whoever bought it paid over $75,000 for it so I imagine they are going to try to run it pretty much the same way and attempt to capitalize off of the Xoxide name. Anyone know who the purchaser was? I would imagine its someone established in the computer parts industry looking to branch out to the enthusiast market.Anyone else notice that their entire storefront is back up? They aren't just listing what's in stock any more, it's all of the products that they had available.
Though if you go to add something that's obviously out of stock the site throws up the alert "The quantity you requested is not available at this time. Please check back soon!"
Well I do hope they redesign the site... I liked Xoxide just for the uniqueness / range of parts you could get... but the layout was terrible.
Then again I hate most online store layouts... even Newegg is pretty meh at times...
what's the deal? i'm on xoxide.com and dont see anything about going out of business, clearance, or even reduced priced. it looks like it always does.
btw this had the cheapest yate loons b/c of the cheap shipping
Jab-Tech sells real Yates![]()
what the hell? they came back to business???? all the items back in stock and prices raised back to where they were.... confused..
Hello All,
As you're probably aware, Xoxide.com was put up for sale recently. We are thrilled to announce that our company was the winning bidder in the transaction and will be assuming an ongoing management role in the next few days. We would like to assure everyone that you will receive the same great service and product selection you have come to expect from Xoxide and hopefully some added benefits as well.
We will keep this brief, as we're scrambling to restock the shelves and complete the transfer as we speak. Our company has over 10 years of experience in the PC and video gaming accessory industry, both on the manufacturing and distribution side. We ship products around the world to hundreds of thousands of customers, super fast. Xoxide will continue to be an independent entity, as will the forums (we will absolutely continue to host them so don't go anywhere!) Our goal is to minimize any disruption in service and expect that business will continue to operate as usual.
We're happy to hear all of your feedback and suggestions for any potential improvements to the site. We will try to respond to as many of them as we can, but even if we can't respond individually, we are reading everything and strive to provide you with the best online shopping experience possible for all of your hardware and modding needs. Thank you in advance for all of your support and we look forward to serving you. More details to follow soon...
-New Xoxide Owners
From Xoxide Forums.
You couldn't be more wrong about that statement. Xoxide went under and sold their name to the new Xoxide buyer. The new Xoxide buyer didn't buy the entire company and does not have to honor any of the previous company's obligations. Xoxide is now just a subsidiary (or perhaps separate business entity) of the buyer.so basically since the new owners are keeping the name and sticking with the same product line they have to honor all items and prices that were paid for all clearance items that were ordered during the sale.

If anyone doesn't receive their shipment or receives a partial shipment they have to take it up with the old company because the new company has zero obligation to them.
Do you have a source for that, or is that your opinion?
Somewhere in this thread is (was) the link to the online auction which said they were only selling the domain name. I don't want to get into an entire discussion about how a business is a separate legal entity outside of the owners, but I will give a quick primer because it makes the rest of my explanation easier to understand. The original people who set up Xoxide would have either set up a corporation, partnership, or LLC in order to avoid personal liability should the business fail (it also makes it easier to get loans, open bank accounts in the company's name, etc.). For simplicity sake we will call this company Xoxide, Inc. Xoxide, Inc. most likely became insolvent and decided to close its doors. They liquidated the inventory, either sold or allowed the bank to take their buildings and other assets, and have closed up shop. The buyer, decided that the Xoxide name and domain name were worth something and decided to purchase them and keep the storefront alive. We will call them Buyer, Inc for simplicity. Buyer, Inc. owns the Xoxide name and the website, but did not buy the inventory, receivables, building, etc.; nor did they assume the mortgage on the building, the unpaid bills, or the unfullfilled orders.Do you have a source for that, or is that your opinion?

I have no source that this is exactly how things went down because Xoxide is a private company and they may have avoided bankruptcy proceedings because all of their loans were backed by physical assets. But, I can say with 100% certainty that unless the buyer had nobody with any business or legal sense review the purchase agreement that this is how things went down. And since we know the buyer has run another business for the past decade we can assume he has competent counsel.
Got my shipment and to my surprise, it had 2 cans of brawndo!
Unfortunately one of the Blue Balls was that was bubble wrapped had a small piece of glass in the bubble wrap. SO I cut my finger while removing the bubble wrap. So I ended up with bloody blue bawls.
LMAO
but where would the glass come from? Terrorist plot? Putting little pieces of anthrax coated glass in bubblewrap knowing that all Americans pop every bubble just for fun???
