I thought we already had "early reviews" out by a couple of sites.................old hat now!
What about NDA? That's why those "early reviews" where so vague. But this ones have been bought and are supposed to be NDA free.

How can they possibly be "NDA Free" if the card has not been released and the NDA is such that info is so scarce?..............I didnt think that within an NDA period there was such thing as "NDA Free", it may just be a phrase someone uses to hide the fact they have a card sourced from somewhere it shouldn't have been sourced if you get my meaning

Yeah but that is suspicius to begin with, so you can quess it was stolen. But that is not the case. He bought them for their price (well he bought what he thought it was a pair of 8800GTs for a reasonable price for a pair of 8800GTs), so he couldn't guess where they came from. No way that's illegal.
Anyway I doubt these cards were stolen. Stolen from where?
No, probably they were samples for a reviewer that sold them. Probably to the guy that then sold them to Xazax. IMHO the only thing that could happen is that the first one, the reviewer, will be charged of NDA infringement. And I don't think there's any penal consecuencies for that, or is it? I know nothing about laws.DarkMatter

I meant that it's the first one who sold them that has infringed the NDA, but neither Xazax or the PCPerspectice Admin signed any NDA. But as I said in the post above I don't know a shit about laws.

Without actually seeing the NDA originally placed with the reviewer, you cannot tell if Xazax would be under it. From a legal stand point, the court system will be behind Xazax only due to him not "knowing" what he had purchased and what was shipped to him. Unless he is not telling us the truth behind these cards and is a way to hype mid-range, but why would a company want to do that? You think they would want to hype up the high end upper range of their next gen. Another point to add, maybe to hype mid-range to compete with ATi's HD3850.
Whomever sold him the cards broke the NDA unless their were numerous owners of these cards.

Well I don't know there, but I know that you can't be charged of anything here in Spain in the case you bought something that had been stolen. I remember seen in TV a guy who bought a car that had been stolen in Germany. The only problem he faced was that he coulnd't get his money back, that's all. IMHO the Penal System is broken if you can go to jail for that.

They call it accomplices.
Meaning if you are aware that there is an intent of crime being committed you are guilty as well.

Yeah but from what we now there's no such a crime. I may be wrong, but I don't think a NDA infringement is a crime. At least not one punishable with jail or something like that. An NDA is an agreement between two parts, that is resolved between those parts, a third which is not aware of that agreement has nothing to do with it and shouldn't be charged of anything.
EDIT: Anyway revising your posts, seems to me as if you misandertood something in the legal system. It is not you who have to demostrate innocence, it's the court who has to demostrate you are guilty. If someone is not aware of the crime (a posible theft in this case or NDA infringement) he is not guilty, unless they prove otherwise.

The problem here is,would you want to be sued by nvida? I certainly would'nt.
I dont suppose it makes no differance to zaxaz as he bought them legitamatly.Were they came from is not his concern.Hes not at fault for buying them,its the guy who sold them that nvida would butt f*ck with a lawsuit.

He's got them listed on eBay again....under another eBay account?
Also, he links to another forum under another forum name.
I thought he sold these already. I wonder what's going on?

This guy sold it to that guy at ~$650, why is he selling them both for ~$350? Something's fishy.

That's an interesting concept regarding NV. Both sellers on ebay (yesterday and today) share 2 things in common.
1. Both sellers had "Marine" in their name.
2. Both sellers are in California.
I could be wrong, but isn't NV based in Santa Clara, California?

+1. It's called Viral Marketing. From now on I'm a suscriber to the "this is a Viral Marketing campaign" theory. Maybe too early to tell, but still.
