How do these people make money??
$89.99USD for an Athlon XP 2400+ (bare)and ECS K7S5A Pro mobo. I don't know if you all have ever heard of this place but it's called Fry's Electronics.

That is a killer price!!!
I cannot even beat that!!!
it might be reconditioned parts, or a scam. :D
I have seen a few people buy them... They are legit...
They deal in a larger large bulk orders... So yes I can see them doing that! Plus that doesnt come with a heatsink :)
They make you buy the board and proc... But they push other products on you too to make more of a sale :)
Its just a ad ploy to get you into the store :)
Why can't they have a Fry's in New Hampshire or Mass.:( The Compusa and bestbuy here sucks for cheap pc parts, everything is overpriced.
Aye a AMD 2400+ cost $140 at compusa compared to $80 I paid at newegg.com.. :eek:
They only have fry's in california, texas, and oregon i think.
Very true actually, the so called "ad-on sales" they try but do not succeed. Atleast not on me. All the parts are new and yes no heatsink but for a copper one its another 20bucks or so.Quote:

19.99 + 89.99 = 109.98 It's still a damn good deal IMO. Considering some places (like newegg) charge me taxes on I buy anyways...
Reminds me of this guy on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...category=31508
List of other bone systems he sells: http://cgi6.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...sort=3&rows=25
Shipping is steep at about $50, but he is shipping from Canada. But still at $70-120 that is dirt cheap for a motherboard,cpu(most with stock HSF),case and ps. Look at his seller rating of 15500+ and he is moving some major amounts of hardware and at a 99% positve!
haha,
What motherboard is he listing???
"Most Powerful SiS 746FX chipset providing the "BEST" AMD CPU Platforms"
????
They have a Fry's opening in Washington state in about a month :). Perfect timing since I will be living there for at least 4 years for college.Quote:
