I bought one from CC with the pricematch and 110% guarantee. I almost had it for $109 but I got greedy. I got the CSR to agree to accept the OD $20 off $50 coupon and then I got her to PM Compusa. Then stupidly I asked for the 110% on top of it and she couldn't figure out how to enter it and called the floor manager to help. He nixed it. Said I could have the 110% PM or the coupon but not both since they came from different retailers. He said if the coupon had come from Compusa or if the ad had come from OD he could have done the whole thing but not split between the two. So for $122 plus tax I should be happy.

Oh, the dance of the deal is so addicting....

so they PMed even when compusa didnt have ti in stock? wow.
 
No, Compusa B&M in Lexington had a ton in stock, at least 7 units. Mind you though, CC didn't ask whether they did or not so that fact didn't really matter.
 
>>>comp geeks sucks! I had a RMA in for 1 month nothing! this might be my Hot Deal.... <<<

I agree. Until a while ago I thought highly of them having ordered several times with good results, but now they're giving me the run-around on a returned graphics card, which went bad. Will not reply to my e-mails. No more compgeeks for me.

:disgust:
 
Picked one of these up when they were advertised at $129 at CUSA
None in stock but the lazy folks at CC didn't call and took %15 more off
Card works great, all games run full tilt with all graphics maxed
