These Fxxxks have had my return for 7 days now

I will contest it. I sent buy .com a message telling them they have the wrong stock photo on the item and it mislead me to believe I was getting a 3870x2 1 gb not a 3870 1gb. I don't think it will be a problem thats a giant company. Sent them a nasty gram.

and still no refund several email from these goofs not a single person talks to each other. I would never buy a thing from buy.com
