I cherry picked an i7 920 that would clock to 4.7GHz out of a mess of 10. Found them all homes at reduced prices, and this one I wanted a little extra because of my efforts. The guy cries about not getting a stock HSF, which was never to be included in the deal, and proceeds to get me to send the stock HSF. Today I find out he did a charge-back.

Contact PP or your CC company and explain/show them the PM's. Just send him the heatsink (you don't have a choice now) and get tracking for that. If you need a retail i7 box/heatsink (unused) I'll send you one for shipping, I still have it from build in September.

That is just unreal >.< I hope everything turns out fine Binge, you know you have TPU behind you

On the side note: i7 920's are 170$ now and free Gig mobo with the purchase of any of the select 5-6 AMD processors

$170 for i7 920
anyone wanna pick one up for me?

the one in Minnesota is sold out

theonedub · Mar 31, 2010

HT enabled i7s at that price is a great deal for the processing power you get.

What kinda momo needs a stock HSF for a i7-920? I would end up using it as a paperweight. I hope it ends well for you Binge.

Wow Binge, sorry to hear you have to deal with this. Just want to thank you for trying to do everyone a favor. :respect:

And now you end up getting shafted. Damn. :mad:

I had a similar issue with a guy once and Paypal did nothing to help me. So, I called his local Police Department and they went to his house and talked to the guy. He lied to them saying nothing was wrong, however it scared him enough to give me my money again.

If anyone's willing to pick up the i3 540 deal Fry's is running for me, shoot me a PM.

People who run out of money from buying the rest of the i7 parts, so they end up having to use the stock heatsink with some MX-3 thermal paste,and still get a good overclock out of it all.

That does suck though Binge.:shadedshu

Yeah Binge, any updates my man?

blkhogan · Apr 3, 2010

Sorry to read of your problem Binge. You try to do good by people and they cork you in the ass for it. :mad:

Everyone wonders why people dont help each other anymore, its because of shit like that. :shadedshu Pathetic petty people.

True. We have a pretty good core of people that buy/trade/sell here @ TPU. Maybe we need to restrict this thread to "known" members w/ reputation and the heat to back it. I would hate to see this thread die because of some stupid n00b fuktard. :mad:

Maybe somehow have a pre screened list of members that qualify for the thread. If the person is "unknown", they must have the backing of one of the members allowed to use the thread. Just a thought. :toast:

Ive used this thread 2 times personally with awesome results. :respect:

Yes, I spoke with Arlington PD about the guy, and I was ready to go to Texas. I figured I'd tell him that I was going to Texas to sue him in civil court, and the next day he returned my money.

Thanks. I know exactly how you feel.

This guy had a stellar reputation, and he's been banned from two forums for causing trouble. A 2nd class worm. Wasn't too bad, but I never want to deal with that again.

I'm happy you got your money back, albeit the effort...

He should have sent you bonus cash for not bringing him to court -_-

If you want to, you could let people know who it was so that we avoid doing business with these type of people

His name on other forums (where the deal took place) is scgt1, his name is Michael Runge.

He's a member here too. I seem to remember him from PP and Momento's shack thread. I think he's friends or acquaintances of their's.

That would be your best bet.

I wasn't aware of this situation. Glad you got your money back, it sucks ass when people try to rip others off especially when they go above and beyond to help them out. Leave the heat, and we can know not to deal with this person in the future. If you need any help from any staff here, please drop us a PM and we/I can assist you however we can.

Let's now please get back to the original intent of this thread.

negative heatware s useless you can contact heatware themselves and have it removed, so that means nothing. theres not a whole lot binge really can do. to bad too because not many people do the things he does for this and other communiies.
