I couldnt help it

[Comixion]

I bought another set of those G51's. Ironically for the same price. ($80)
I was hoping to get them at a cheaper price that the 2 others that sold just after the ones I bought.
But hey, still a steal.
I already have them sold locally for 140.00.
Watch out Donald Trump.
Thats a $45 profit (after adding $15 to have them shipped to me):dev: :D

He just listed 3 more for sale.
What a hell of a cookie jar.
hmmmmm....maybe another 1?

[AKHandyman]

Where's that goddamn link ... I want a pair ... seeing as how you know the guy "so well", see if he'll send me the set for regular shipping... say parcel post... I don't care if I don't get em in two to three weeks ... :p

[Comixion]

[Comixion]

Well, I input 99501 because it was in alaska and dam $103 for ground via UPS.!!

Cool show, watched last season and got a kick out of it!

Yeah, one time Omga14 thought NewEgg was discriminating against the people in Arkansas, HI, and Puerto Rico because of the shipping ... he said something like he didn't think Arkansas was that far away, until I pointed out that AK is Alaska, not Arkansas!!

[Comixion]

Since they changed the state abbreviations from 3 letters to 2.
Alot of people get confused.
I always confuse MI for Mississippi or Michigan

[Comixion]

This is too funny.

The seller shows Charles Smith in Phoenix Arizona
I sent my M/O to a S. Hamidou Maiga in Ny, New York
and received my speakers from TigerDirect.com in Missouri

[Comixion]

[Comixion]

It tells me I cant Bid again!!!

Because I am either winning or bought the maximum from this seller in the past 10 days.http://www.pasthelp1.esmartweb.com/pissed.x

[AKHandyman]

Now that doesn't sound right ... and I am trying to find the platinum version on the Egg for some comparisons and all they have is the Fatality version ... what's the going rate for that sound card anyways?

[AKHandyman]

Oh duh!!! Senior moment! I see that he is selling the Fatality Platinum version, he's just using a different picture of the box ... :o

[Comixion]

$199 at BestBuy
TigerDirect $179
Whats the difference in the Platinum fatality and the other one?

[Comixion]

Oh duh!!! Senior moment! I see that he is selling the Fatality Platinum version, he's just using a different picture of the box ... :o

There are 2 different ones.
The one he has listed is discontinued from newegg. But still for sale at other places from $179-$199
unless like you say he put up the wrong pic. Let me read the details again

Hey AK...read the "Auction Terms"

Trying to bust my bubble? :p

[Comixion]

Yes...I mean No.

Really though, I wouldnt ask. Go ahead and let the auction end. Just play the ignorant game. I'm sure he will take your money.

[Comixion]

Besides, I'll wait for the next round. I'm sure he will have more of these.


PS: My other set of speakers arrive tomorrow.:D

[Devils00Champs]

com, how do those g51s sound? im tempted to put up a bid for that set he has up again.

[Comixion]

Currently just on my onboard sound. Great!
I can imagine how the Fatality card will improve them even more.
That control pod is one hell of a convenience.

At that price, and if you need or want a set. I would suggest get them while the gettin's good.
plus, he ships before you even pay him.
I won the bid Tuesday and he shipped them the same day.

[Devils00Champs]

wasnt really looking for a set, using a decent set of old logitech speakers, but for that price, its almost too good to pass up. Might end up bidding on that Fatality too, thou the P5E ive got did come with a 24bit sound card.

[AKHandyman]

com, how do those g51s sound? im tempted to put up a bid for that set he has up again.
He's bluffing ... they probably sound terrible ... he's just trying to say that they sound good because they really BLEW UP!!!! Hahaaahaa :D

Nah, they probably sound Heavenly ... :p

[Comixion]

Nah, they probably sound Heavenly ... :p

How would you know what heaven sounds like?

I'm a good mind to register as a new user on ebay and up that bid, knocking you smack dab out of contention.

I remember when they use to say that a good mind was a terrible thing to waste ... what happened? :woot:

[Comixion]

Don't know really.

Hope he lists more of those cards tomorrow.

[AKHandyman]

I don't expect to win ... I just did it for grins and giggles ... :p
But would be nice to get it for the amount I bid ... he said that it would be flat-rate and for the 50 States ... I didn't see where he said only Lower 48 ... :confused:

[Devils00Champs]

Usually Alaska and Hawaii cost somewhat more to ship to

Not when it comes to flat-rate ... it's all the same across the board ... that's how my wife gets a shi*load of her quilting stuff from the Lower 48 and from here to the Lower 48 ... flat-rate ... there are two different size boxes and they are like a little different in size, but I believe the flat-rate is $8.95 ... anywhere, anytime ... :thumb:
Here is the info from their website
Boxes
• Flat Rate Boxes can be used for both domestic and international shipping:

— Available to anywhere in the U.S. for $8.95

— One rate to Canada and Mexico for $23.00

*20 pound maximum for international shipments
• The inside dimensions for the two boxes available are 11" x 8.5" x 5.5" and 13.625" x 11.875" x 3.375". The two boxes are different shapes to accomodate a variety of contents.

I just knew it.

"csmithdesigns"

All of a sudden..
No longer a registered user on Ebay.

Anybody want to splain that?
He had items for sale when he jumped ship or got showed the door.
Wonder what he did to unregister or get banned. Or maybe skeered off.

I'm glad I havent paid for that Sounblaster card yet, and I was going to send it today and happened to look on ebay and see that that seller is gone.
WTF!

[Devils00Champs]

his deals did seem to good to be true, could the items have been stolen? You did say your speakers arrived in a Tiger Direct box right?

[AKHandyman]

I bet the Internet Po-po got him ... dragged him off to Internet Pokey, never to be heard from again! Lucky you! :p

[Devils00Champs]

The whole thing did seem little weird as you said you sent the money to one place and received the item from a totally different place.

[Comixion]

Yes I got my speakers....both sets.

and yes they came from TigerDirect.
My M/O was sent to an individual in Ny

Talk about fate. Just as I was leaving the office to go to the PO. I looked to see what else he was selling and how the bids were going and .."POOF". It was all gone! Those items had a few hours left when I looked earlier.

But I did get what I paid for on the speakers. And he shipped before he got his money.
My question is: why would he ship his items before he received the money?
