8rda+ $70.50 Shipped ***Newegg Refurb***

Very nice price. I haven't ever ordered a refurbished MB from Newegg, but don't really see a problem in it. Would anyone not recommend getting a refurbished MB?
 
some ppl got some of the asus deluxe nf2 mobo's from newegg for $90 last week. turns out they came bare board online... no brackets or accessories. they turned around and tried to dump them on fs/ft at cost. so i am wondering if its the same with these epox boards.
 
Good point Spanky. The pictures of the link @ Newegg show the accessories, but I am sure it's just the same pics that Newegg would use with the unrefurbished 8RDA+ boards.
 
Thanks! Kept missin out on the Asus refurbs, this looks like 2nd best choice!

Ordered mine. 12 left as of 11:12 pm PST.

$25.00 case
71.00 EPOX 8rda+

The pictures shown are from the NEW version of this item. If you purchase this refurbished product you will receive an OEM BAREBONE, meaning it is just the item itself. Accessory items are NOT INCLUDED with refurbished products. Accessories are shown in the pictures so that customers will know what is missing from the item.
 
Just ordered one...more are left as of 11:54PM Pacific. I heard that most of the time newegg.com does include the accesories with refurbished motherboards, we will see.
 
I have bought newegg refurbs alot and recently they have been giving dead boards which have not been refurbed. One had a broken ps2 mouse jack and the other 3 were dead. I have gotten a couple good ones and almost all of the ones I got from Abit and MSI had everything including cables, brackets, manuals, and cd. In the end those dead ones I sent back to the manufacturer and got replacements for. If you are in dire straits and just want no hassle, I'd recommend not taking the risk for $20-$30 difference.
 
I think most of the time Asus and Epox refurbs are from the manufacture, thus no cable and stuff, where as the other ones are actual reuturns, which might come with cables and stuff....just my $0.02...:clock:

im sure they are fully tested, but i have an issue with buying refurb motherboards for some reason.
guess i have this fear that it is the sole most important part in the computer and i would absolutely
want something straight out of the box.
 
how you guys know how many boards in the deal? I been waiting to get a DVDs from Rebuf but they are gone... all the time. What time these people set up the stuff?

i need to read newegg's website's fine print more carefully.

Important: Your order contains refurbished product. Please read the following before you proceed:



Newegg.com does not test any product, including refurbished items. Refurbished items therefore are only tested by the original manufacturer. Due to qualities vary between manufacturers, YOU ARE TAKING A RISK BUYING REFURBISHED PRODUCTS.
Refurbished products are OPEN BOX products that contain components that have been owned by other clients and returned to NewEgg.com. The products are sold considerably under cost. Newegg.com guarantees all refurbished products for 15 days only. CPUs will only have 7 days for refund. All refurbished items are considered OEM "barebone" parts.
Barebone means Newegg.com can only guarantee the item by itself, no other accessories. No matter what the product description says, the refurbished products may not have all the other accessories. Newegg.com is limited to the barebone part of the item itself. Do not be upset or surprised if your refurbished product does not contain any cables, adaptor, manual, CD, drivers, fan, etc. Newegg.com will not send you any missing accessories, even if it is an essential part.

While Newegg.com does not like to discourage sales, only the experienced pc enthusiast should purchase refurbished items and know how to deal with missing accessories. Only buy refurbished products if you are willing to resolve defects and/or know how to find missing accessories.

Refurbished products do have considerable higher return rate than brand new items. If you are just looking to get a good deal, please only buy new products.

YOU ARE TAKING A RISK BUYING REFURBISHED PRODUCTS.

add to cart... then change the quantity to some insane number like 999. it will only add as many as there are in inventory.
 
yeah they need to drop it quite a bit lower in price to make this "gamble" worth the risk... for only about $15 more you can get the full retail... i am currently using an Epox board 8KHA+ i got from Newegg about a year ago or so and it was $50 and it came with all the accesories... i got a good one and would try it again if it was enough of a discount...


i stand corrected!!!! it is $25 difference... 1/2 the price of a T-bred 1700XP... its sounding better already!! hmmmmmm?

Almost $25 cheaper for me with tax and everything. Mines came in today, looked great, came with everything sealed, manuel had some wear to it 😕 Took me a couple of tries to get the board working, I keep getting beeping error messages and no where in the manuel does it give any information on the beeps. I reseated the video card and got it running. Seems in great running order. Glad I took the risk to save $25...looks and operates like new to me.

Anyone else get their board today?

 
Personally there's no way in hell I'd put a refurbished board in my machine. Your mobo is the building block of your system that everything's connected to and you want to use something that's pretty much sold as is? For the pitiful savings that it brings, I wouldn't even think about risking it. Besides, half the stuff that comes with it is probably missing.

Should I quote thread crap?

I got mine today, it arrived with all accessories and looks to be brand new except for a sticker on the bios seems to have been looked under. My $49 CPU is on the way. Not a bad combo for $119.50 shipped. My pitiful savings brings me a case w/PSU...well almost...$27.54 shipped. To each his own I guess....

I'll be looking for some (cheap) ram and hd deals now.
