Too bad for them that they can't do that BS with Amazon. I would never trust a stand alone no-name place like that w/o Amazon backing it up.

Same here cancelled my order, turns out it was a Mistake and $40 MIR

How did you find out? I haven't heard anything yet... :mad:

Duxx · Aug 28, 2008

lol, i just nearly shit myself because i missed the best deal of the century. Shame that its not legit

AddSub · Aug 28, 2008

Don't worry guys. All GTX 260's will drop to around $200 or even less once GTX 260+ (or GTX 265/270?) goes retail.

Yeah, I got mine through Amazon too. I haven't received any kind of cancellation from Amazon, and $188 was withdrawn from my account. Hopefully this will stick. Sorry to the guys who got screwed with this one. That sucks!

For those who ordered from Amazon, has anyone had their order cancelled?

mep916 · Aug 28, 2008

I ordered directly from their website. Couldn't find the link $175 link at Amazon. I was charged, and they haven't cancelled on me yet.

I hope Megasty is correct, and that Amazon won't let the order be cancelled. I'm kinda surprised that you haven't had your order cancelled yet, since you bought directly from them.

I'm gonna call them today. The money was withdrawn from my PayPal account, and as far as I can tell, the order is "in process." I'll post back after I speak with someone.

PaulieG · Aug 28, 2008

Well, the suspense is killing me. I just emailed the seller through Amazon and asked when my order would be shipped. I'll post when I hear back.

alexp999 · Aug 28, 2008

Damn! This is less than the price I paid in £'s for the vanilla EVGA GTX260. :rolleyes:

PaulieG · Aug 28, 2008

I just received an email from electronica direct, after emailing them through Amazon:

"Dear Valued Customer,

and we thought we have a lot more in stock. We are trying to get this item
from a different warehouse you should hear from our company what the results
was.

I can't believe I just bought a Nvidia card! Now I have to figure out what to do with it...

Sell it, make a profit, buy another 4870?

Yeah, well if this is the case, I will be filing a "bait and switch" complaint with Amazon.com and the BBB.

alexp999 · Aug 28, 2008

This is like that 4870X2 thread, through komplett.
What happened with that? did people just get their orders cancelled?
