    So... I just ordered 2 x 9800GX2 for £180

    ...Will they arrive? It's a reputable company, but it looks like a mistake when putting the item online.

    Ordered from here: http://www.ballicom.co.uk/new-produc...i.p388963.html

    I hadn't heard of them, but other members say they are big, they have a phone number and an office in Coventry. I hope they go through and send me them

    What do you think?

      Because they are stupidly cheap.

      A single 9800GX2 goes for £220, so if they arrive, profit time :awes

      I doubt they will ever come, most likely a pricing error, but we'll see.

          Oh yeah, i'm Radeon for life (until another 1337 Nvidia card swings my way).

          I'm 99% sure nothing will come.

              Out of stock and no product info. I wouldn't be too hopeful.

                So you bought 2 of them even though you didn't think they would come? I would have stuck with only 1 just to try them...

                  If they don't come, you'd get your money back right?

                      They weren't out of stock when i ordered.

                      If they take payment for the card, then by law, they must send me it or allow me to cancel the purchase.

                      If they don't take payment, they can cancel the order and tell me it was a listing error. A lot of other people have ordered items from them including the £104 GTX280!

                      I bought 2, because if they send me the cards, i sell them on and make £/$/€. If they don't, they don't take money and i get nowt. I lose nothing either way. It's not a scam site either, other people have bought from that site before.

                        Problem is if they dont arrive dont expect to get your money back right away, it might take a weeks as refunds usually get processed slowly

                        Let us know if they arrive

                          Nope, the website realised they messed up bad and cancelled all orders :)

                          They didn't charge anything either. Was worth a go :)

                            Why didn't you go for the GTX 280 (I'm being hypothetical here).
