anyone buy a duron from buy.com?

What are the chances of getting one that is locked and the pencil trick will not work?

I just bought a T-Bird 750 from buy.com and all I have to do is connect the L1 bridges. It came in Friday. I know other people who had theirs just come in also on Friday, Durons included and they were the same. Still have the pins on the bottom but the bridges needed to be connected on top.

bought a tbird 800 from there last week l1's were disconnected but pins intact. I dont have a motherboard with multiplier settings though. I bought a duron 650 2 weeks ago from altima2000.com and it was unlocked l1s, intact.

I just got my DURON, and it has the bridges on the top, but what pins on the bottom are we speaking of?? I want to make sure mine is able to be o/c'ed before I attempt to do so... thanks.

Where are the pins located that I need to look for? Also how do I tell the week?

This post shows a scan of the Duron pins, edited to show what it apparently looks like with the pins removed:
