DEAD: Smoking Hot Microcenter shippable 2500k's $140 plus shipping!

[Kenmitch]

DEAD deal it looks like. Looking at when members stated they ordered one and then reading their comments about order being canceled I'm wondering if the deal was dead from the getgo.

At least one confirmed shipped so far.

Doubt they'll last long but Microcenter currently has the 2500k's in stock and currently showing as shippable. They don't last long most of the time.

Figured Microcenter CPU prices are Hot....Shippable makes it Smoking Hot to the masses at least

Price can't be beat even on the used market it looks like.

$140 plus shipping of your choice.

Standard shipping $5.99
Next Day shipping $11.99

Doesn't look like it'll bundle this time.

In case the deal is dead before you find out about it.

My jealously of American pricing continues...

A 2500k will run you the equivalent of $250+ here in the UK.

Awesome deal. Saves on gas money too.

It was U.S. $99.99 for a brief time a month or two ago IF you had a Microcenter B&M store nearby (which I don't )

Amazing deal. Just note that because it's OEM, it probably doesn't come with a heatsink.

1-year warranty vs. 3-year warranty too, I believe.

May or may not be a typo? Guess first person to do in store pickup can varify if it is or isn't a OEM cpu....Based on original price I'd think Retail tho.

Got it. Missed out last time - $99 deal. Was going to atlanta but couldn't be sure I'd get to the store so I waited untill I knew I could make it there - and of course they were labeled as sold out on the web page then so I didn't even try. Found out later that you could still get them if you asked at the store - wuwt?

 

[DooKey]

Nice price!!!

 

[Schmide]

Why I buy when I do not need?

 

[jackstar7]

If only they'd open it up to the 2700K/3770K...

 

[Schmide]

Huh? Anyone else get this?

Your order #xxxxxxx has been cancelled due to product unavailability or a payment authorization issue. You have not been charged for any items on this order (see list below).

Edit: Called they said it ran out of stock.

Updated title with DEAD: I'm starting to wonder if the deal was dead from the getgo. Guess maybe we'll hear from somebody who got one shipped.
