This is not a "Hot Deal"
Wrong forum

Damn, what's with the rash of "Hot Deals" pointing to the FS/FT forum? If we really wanted to find Hot Deals in the FS/FT forum, don't you think we'd look there instead of here???

While in the FS/FT forum I found 64Meg Radeon's for $155 shipped.

If this were a Hot Deal, there would be no problem posting it here. It is a group buy, similar to the Socket A fans offered here in Hot Deals forum a while back. But, while many are jumping on this deal, it looks very shaky to me.

First of all it is NOT RETAIL or OEM, as ALL 64 meggers are clocked at 183mhz, not the 166Mhz these are shipping at. Also, distributor is "testing" each card. Why bother with that if all is legit? Last off, there was a similar deal going around a couple months ago, from a supplier in Canada. This guy is from Canada. The cards were actually "ATI TEST CARDS", and had identical specs to these. I am pretty sure buyers will get a 64meg Radeon from this, but do you really want an early test card??

To me, a requirement to Hot Deal posting is the link to where you are getting the product from yourself. Direct to buyer, without going through the middleman. Try to get warranty service any other way. You can't.
