Newegg Q. Part2

[onza]

For those who have bought from the Refrub section..

The pictures shown are from the NEW version of this item. If you purchase this refurbished product you will receive an OEM BAREBONE, meaning it is just the item itself. Accessory items are NOT INCLUDED with refurbished products. Accessories are shown in the pictures so that customers will know what is missing from the item.

that is the quote when u click on "pics"

just wondering what it exactly means? Do i get IDE cables, or the backplate?

k, that is all

not always the case though. I purchased a refurb mobo from them a few months back and it had everything. They just wont GUARANTEE it has everything.

 

[Spikey217]

The most I ever got were drivers on a CDR for a modem.

I guess it depends.

 

[onza]

so its a gamble.

LOL

You get a killer deal, such as a 48x24x48x lite-on cd-rw for $29 for the "RISK" of getting just the drive. But so far on my experience, you will get something that would usually come with the package, such as a ide cable, audio cable, copy of nero.

. . . which can be a problem since most newer mobos have moved the audio jacks to vertical (case backplate is often horizontal) and added extra jacks for a NIC and/or more USB.

i could just have a ghetto rig, do they sell those back plates seperate?

like GOLD plated.. ya n/m thats uncalled for

A few months ago yeah. Every refurb board I've ordered in the past couple of months has been totally barebone.

 

[ElFenix]

depends on what the guy who shipped it back shipped back with it.

question number 2, if i order today, I live in MN, chances it will arrive FRIDAY?

also do they deliver on Sat? and if i 2 day will i get it on friday or monday?

Depends on the shipping you choose. Fedex Saver? No. Prolly monday or tuesday. 2-day? Prolly not as well, since it wont go out till at least tomm afternoon. Overnight is your only shot to get it on friday.
