Damnit... where can I find their policies on lowering prices right after you buy something... ARG.


Hrm found it... I'll probably get $5, but what about that $20 rebate!?!?? grrr... Great PSU tho.. I was surprised when I opened it and saw they included tie-wraps and a nylon bag for the cables.

figures...I just bought the Enhance 500w supply for my buddies build. While a nice supply it just doesn't provide the peace of mind of the corsair w/the 5 year warranty.

Nice find OP...

UPS or FedEx? If they ship with FedEx I have a chance to get mine tomorrow. I ordered last night.

Placed my order with Buy.com yesterday morning. My PSU came in today!!!

Talk about fast shipping and processing. Granted I lived in Southern California, I still appreciate the quick service by Buy.com! :D

Corsair is screwing me around about their rebates on both RAM and PSU
"Lost" my $50 RAM rebate, 3 months now on 2 - $20 PSU rebates.
They better come soon, per my several telecons with them, or I am done with Corsair

Don't feel bad, I got mine maybe 4 or 5 months ago for $115.

It is a great PSU though, and for this price, it's a steal.

I got my rebate back about two weeks ago for a rebate I filled probably sometime in February. So don't expect that rebate to come anytime soon.

Edit: OUCH! When OOS, the free shipping isn't present! :( Too late again!

I ordered one yesterday when they claimed they were in stock. I get an e-mail now saying they're out of stock.
I guess i'll be patient since this is such a good deal on these power supplies.
I am aggravated, though, about this & also the fact that I wasn't able to take advantage of the google checkout. Everytime I tried it said the server was busy or something along those lines. I ended up using a $5 off coupon I found.

Basilisk,

Are you sure the free shipping wasn't present? I initially thought this was the case also. I thought they were trying to pull some sort of scam but then I clicked on the shipping drop down box in the checkout page and there it was. It seems it defaults to a shipping charge but you can change it.

As of right now mine is in the "sent to warehouse" stage of the process. I haven't received an email saying they are out of stock so I am hoping they actually have mine to send.


Edit to add: As of 4:00 pm the 1st my order is listed as shipped. ETA the 5th. Just an update for whoever asked.

:( Sadly, I am quite certain.

a) Free shipping items say just that on the product page; this PSU doesn't (any longer).
b) I took the order all the way through to the shipping options page; in the place where they usually -default- to non-free shipping -- but offer free if you notice -- they did -not- offer free shipping.

On the other hand, they -do- list it back in stock now. Wish I'd noticed this while s/h was free!

You're correct. I see that now. What a crock.

<Mope ON>... Actually, I thought I'd be putting a fast "<Mope OFF>" right here:
"The Problem disappeared as fast as it arose! "

Unfortunately, 'didn't quite work out that way.
Buy.com has made the PSU Free Shipping once again. Whoopee!!
Unfortunately, they [=800.800.0800!!!] cant change the order I placed yesterday during the small window that wasn't FS.

Yeah... I know: "refuse delivery and order another"... but, I ordered several items from them yesterday and what chance only the RIGHT package will be refused? The risk ain't worth the 12 buck$.

So... sigh...
<Mope OFF>

Anyways, -YOU- again have a great shot a this deal -WITH- Free Shipping.
