VisionTek Xtasy GeForce4 Ti 4600 for $179 @ BestBuy

[Leon]

New Best Buy add. Posted after they corrected their "price mistake" online.

Very nice way to attract the customers, by the way

The Inquirer article

This site for more info


[Edit] Some people suggesting this add is fake, if this is the case, by all means, lock/delete the thread. So far, there is no evidence, rather than similar UPC codes with MX 440, which could be BestBuy mistake as well.

Umm:Q

 

[larciel]

we've had enough of this..

That's just sad (referring to that site), they reserve the right to cancel any orders. I ordered one, got cancelled. Life goes on.

 

[Oakenfold]

Uh oh here we go.

 

[ashneel]

Looks like the board nazi's about to give Leon a nice one week vacation

 

[UofI]

dp,
I'd edit your post if I were you. Or you'll likely recieve a vacation as well!

 

[Leon]

I don't see what the problem is - I posted information about different add.

First time it was obvious pricing error, but when company does it twice it makes you wonder....

Pay ATTENTION people, this is after they "fixed" the price. I called over my B&M best buy just now, Fullerton CA specifically, and they have them at that price. I'm on my way over to pick it up now.

 

[UofI]

Hybird,
They dont even have the cards yet!:Q

 

[Leon]

Guys, I'll repeat:

This add was posted 3 days after BB "fixed" their price online. Just keep that in mind.

Leon: I wasn't flaming at your post about the ad. I was just commenting about that website.

Isn't this the high end GF4? It says $129 at a savings of $200. I thought it would retail much higher than that.

 

[Oakenfold]

I just had my wife call in to BB, the SKU is not in their system B&M.. what store do you work at or how did you get this? Ahh I see the pic is being hosted by hypothermia's website.. odd how the sku doesn't show up in the system, I think someone is pulling peoples wallets @ hypothermia.

 

[KEV1N]

I got the circular in the sunday paper, the $179 is for the freakin' GF4 MX.

 

[N8Magic]

There is no mention of this "deal" on the Best Buy website.

The card still has a price of $399.99 and they are on pre-order until the 4th of March.

 

[theNEOone]

yah...how is it that you guys are claiming that BB B&M has it in stores for the price mentioned??? i thought the release date was late Feb, early March....

 

[Vette73]

Thats because the BB people are lazy, so they just say, "yea we got that, come get it, my name you ask....ummm Smith, FRank Smith, and you have a good day too".

[Hanpan]

here we go again.

 

[amdmaxx]

I am pretty sure it is a pre-order item.. And yes, the release date is end of February/early March..

When will we see online retailers such as newegg have these on their sites? Is the 399$ price whats going to be charged for these at newegg, frys, etc? If thats the case ill order it from bestbuy. Or will it be like 340$ or something like that on these at newegg. Reason why I am asking is that this the price that I seen the TI500's going for when they came out.
