*Update, Sold out* No one posts a $59 Refurb MSI K7T266 PRO2-RU @ newegg.

[Expandable]

FedEx just dropped off my MSI K7T266 Pro2-RU mb.

There isn't any cables, manual or driver CD.. not even the MSI box.
Newegg just put the mb inside an anti static bag then put that inside
the FedEx shipping box -- no packaging peanuts or bubble wraps.
And yes, the mb has all the indications of being used -- circular
screw marks on the 6 chassis-attachment slots and chipped CPU socket.
I haven't had time to test it to see if it works or not yet.


Same exact boat here and little dissapointed.

If I ever need to RMA, what do I need to say for reasons?

Well it seems we all got the same thing, personally I thnk Newegg screwed the pooch on this one, because mine didn't work from the get go, they no longer have the refurbs on the site so we'll see what they send me, I expect it to be a new board or at least one in decent condition.

S13SilviaK, they will most likely send you one of the refurbished mb that people returned
from the last sales. It seems like Newegg just rebag the returned stuff and ship them out again.
Newegg's "refurbished" isn't like Sony or Epson's (remember the Epson 880 refurb we bought
from Staples a while ago?) refurbished I'm accustomed to -- these are usually tested/reworked
by the manufacturer then repacked in white or brown box with all the original accessories.

Well if they try and screw me on that one (meaning the board doesn't work), they'll be getting another board in the mail, I use the company fedex to send stuff so they'll be getting constant next day/same day air packages from yours truely.

I did order 3 other Refurbs from them and have been very happy up to now, of course the one time the cables are important they don't include them and more importantly the first time I need the system on time the board is delivered DOA. Oh well I guess my dad will be getting my "OLD" 8K7A+...hehe. By the way the other 3 boards all came in retail boxes with everything sealed.

Anyways we'll see what happens, the board will be going out tomorrow, I hope I get something that at least works this time.

Back in stock

Well it's my dad's company so I don't think he's going to bust me.

Also, the Pro2RU is not in stock as a refurb the regular Pro2 with no USB2.0 or raid is in stock.

Most of us can't afford to send these mb back on our expense.
Sending the mb back a couple of times and the mb will end up costing more than the brand new one.

im pretty sure if you moan loud enough about returning it they will reimburse you for return postage.
