Dead Warm PNY Geforce 6800GT $329.99

[woodscomp]

Buy.com

Warm because it is pre-order with no expected arrival date listed.

Hot for me because I got a 10% off email today and I can wait for this card to arrive.


Buy.com has never done me wrong before.

**UPDATE**

Just checked my status and says it shipped on the 22nd.

The 128MB PNY 6800 is also listed for $250.99. Not a bad little upgrade over a $200 9800 pro. =) Assuming that they ever ship that is.

Maybe this is a good sign.

I know this is straigt up wrong, but maybe by some miracle, they are trying to make up for the shortages by lowering prices early......Naaaahh.

Hot for me because I got a 10% off email today and I can wait for this card to arrive.

Is there a way to get this 10% ? Or its only for former customers?

 

[woodscomp]

One of those emails that say "We've noticed that you have not shopped at Buy.com in a
while, and we miss you!"

Although the only time I shop there is when I have an email like this, and come to think of it my last one was a week ago. When I bought my wife a MS Groovy Mouse...

 

[Blurry]

Darn...clicked the link and it says that they are upgrading their site....:roll:

 

[cownipples]

there are a couple of coupons out there like the one i used 15$ off $200.00 or more computer related products do a search on the web for it!

Also please note that I have a outstanding order since 12-2002 for some memory, it never was sent nor did i pay for it , but it still shows an invoice, if they don't have it you might not ever!!! get it. just a thought to any doubters out there! I think there service might be terrible, my only experiance was never recieving the product LOL

This is kinda tempting...the $15 off $200 could cover tax or shipping. Its a good price, but do not think I can spend $300+ on a video card. It would go nice with the A64 deal....

 

[NightFalcon]

This is nice, I also got a 10% off coupon in my e-mail today. Very tempting, but I so hate PNY How is their 2D quality? I already know their support sucks, but 6800 GT for $300 is so tempting.

[EDIT]
Btw, I still wasn't able to find an answer if this card is dual-dvi or not? Shows dual-dvi on pny.com, but that could be just a wrong picture...

 

[CaptainPete]

PNY's got the same picture for all their 6800 cards (Ultra, GT and non-ultra).

From what it looks like, the picture is of their 6800 Ultra. I really doubt that they've got a GT with dual-DVI.

 

[NightFalcon]

Hm... has anyone actually used the 10% off coupon? It states that the item must have status "In Stock: Usually Ships in 1 to 2 business days." But 6800 GT is "On Order" so I would think that this coupon doesn't work? yet?

 

[woodscomp]

Yes I went ahead and ordered it with the coupon. Totals $303.36 after $6.37 shipping and handling.

Order status says "sent to wharehouse". Nowhere in my email or on the site did it red flag for "On order" status.

 

[bznotins]

Crap! I'd be on this deal if only I got a coupon like some other ppl! I've ordered at buy.com but not for a while, so you'd think I'd be eligible@

 

[woodscomp]

You have to get the email to get the extra discount, all in all though at $330 it is still a good deal, if it is going to ship soon.

 

[Buickbeast]

that's a pretty good deal. Anyone have the email coupon that's not going to use it? Pm me please.

 

[ZoNtO]

If anyone could PM me a product coupon discount code, I'd be grateful.

 

[thepenguin99]

booo they are actually charging shipping on this item =( still a good deal after $7 shipping though

 

[thepenguin99]

I am having some problems ....I place the order then it kicks me back to the shopping cart screen

 

[digitalemperor]

such a good deal but .. god only knows when they'll be in stock.

damn this shortage!! too many people are buying this card.

 

[HocusFocus]

Ya kinda gotta be careful with them. I ordered a wifi card from them and cancelled after a couple of weeks since I found it elsewhere. Three months later they sent it to me and charged my card. Gotta watch 'em.

You are probably using a coupon.
If you do not qualitfy for it they kick you back to the cart.

 

[thepenguin99]

yea I was trying to use a 15$ off 200+ purcahse for first time buyers. Dunno why they have a problem with that since its my first time ordering anything from them.

AHHH figured it out....only valid on instock items.

 

[loafbred]

Thanks for posting this woodscomp. I had decided to wait a couple of months for ~$350 price, so I went for it. I just hope it's not a two-week wait. Then again, I was planning to wait anyway.

 

[digitalemperor]

help us out here folks, is there any coupons or offers new customers can take advantage of? only one's ive found are instock only items.
