9700pro $25?

I'll let you know how it goes... But it looks like based on the description, that it is a SCSI cable, and that they've got them mixed-up. My email confirmation description is for a Powercolor 9700pro.
 
ya that place is crap. a friend of mine ordered a bba 9600xt from them and got a powercolor 9600pro 256mb card instead. then when he informed them of their mistake they tried to tell him that he got a good deal and the 400/200 clocked pro was a faster card than what he had payed for. after two weeks of arguing with them, threatening to contact the bbb and geting the back to setup a return on the charge the place finally got their act together and exchanged the card. i tried to warn my friend about going with a place with low ratings on pricegrabber but he had to learn his lesson the hard way. check out some of the reviews on pricegrabber if you want to see more horror stories, but whatever you do avoid that shop at all costs.

according to vian, that 256 9600pro IS a great deal.

lol well actually VIAN was right about 256mb cards serveing a purpose. we did run cod with extra detal settings and it it didn't suffer from texture swaping unlike the 128mb xt. however, better all around performace was what my freind was after when he ordered the more expensive and higher clocked card.
 
I ordered one yesterday, got the email confirmation saying it was the 9700 Pro, but didn't get any cancellation email yet. I made screen shots all along the way FWIW.
