Check this out Zipzoomfly has the Gainward 6800 Ultra listed for $399. This would be the deal of all deals if they actually keep this price when they get them stock in. The golden sample cards are pre-overclocked.

I am sure they will catch this blunder, but you never know...

I am watching it:)

$399?? for an ultra?? Hot!
Same price as a GT, hopefully it's not a typo for a gt.

I saw this a few days ago. Definitley a typo without a doubt. Also it is backorderd, I am sure by the time it is in stock they will correct the price, especially since you posted it here and they most likely have someone that check these boards :p

I missed the best buy price mistake. What happened? Did they honor the incorrect price, I'm assuming?

I'll never order anything from UnzipyourFly again. I received a "back in stock" email from them this past Wed. regarding a 6800GT I was interested in. Went to their site, it was listed as in stock so I ordered it, credit card was billed and as of this am status was "packed" and awaiting shipping. I called to confirm this afternoon and was told it would ship today (free 2 day UPS). I get home, check my email and low and behold the item that I was told would ship today was on backorder :( . Kinda reminds me of Gateway....

I've also had some BAD dealings with them. I know lots of people like them but I'll never do business with them again. Customer service here is seriously LACKING!

I also experienced the same treatment from ZZF.

it's probably just impossible for their warehouse to keep up with all these pulsating video card purchases. i've ordered from zipzoomfly.com quite a few times and have been pleased (cheaper prices, faster shipping, free stuff usually). this is probably the worst shipping mistake i've heard of them making.

still, i see zipzoomfly up to par with newegg - if not better.

I got my Gainward 6800GT from ZZF on Wednesday, just got the system running an hour ago though. I have the normal no golden sample version of the card, which still comes with custom cooling, copper heatsinks on the gpu and ram with 2 fans blowing on the whole card and I can tell you that it is a monster. Mine autodetects at 434/1.16 and is stable.

Holy S*&amp;t, I wonder what the golden sample 6800GT will detect as?

I ordered the 6800GT golden sample this morning as well. My fingers are crossed. I have been burned on about 4 of these GT deals now, and am hoping I can actually get it this time.

Shows out of stock for me.

Weird, it was showing in stock for a bit. I guess it's possible the thing sold out already, but that's pretty ridiculous considering it's a $530 card.

Normally I would agree, but considering the huge demand for these cards it doesnt seem that ridiculous. If people are paying 470$ for a GT.. then 530 for the ultra isnt much of a stretch.
