    Lame.

    I know it the law they have something so that if the price is way out of proportion then they don't have to agree to the sale but not sure of the exact details.

    However its cool see how its going to pan out!

    Well, the interesting thing is that usually where things are obviously mispriced that they get picked up on before a contract is formed from the offer (you placing the order) and when there's acceptance (in the form of the retailer accepting your payment).

    Has anyone had the money debited from their cards already? If so, there's not a lot they can do to back out unless their stock mysteriously vanishes..

    i know someone who has had £12 quid debited from his account after placing this order, although with the card + delivery it comes to about £15 so it may well be something else ..

    he reckons if it works out and comes through, he's going to order 50 :)

    I am surprised that people can't do any of their own detective work, though ;)

  • If memmory serves me right this is a very powerful card , used for CAD and such like . its not for video edditing , gaming etc.

    And yes it could well be the price of the end of life product to clear the bins , it should be matched up with an os and software to do cad which cost thousands for it to work at peak....even if it is old hat some architects and engineers will get a kick at that price for upgrading a home setup which is always less powerfull than a work unit.
    Have you tried turning it off and on again?

    Even so.... for £13 who wouldn't buy it?

    me , no need , and anyone that doesnt run cad software.

    Just informing folk before they realise it wont work in their systems for gaming , and they may need to upgrade further hardware including a 100 quid psu....not that cheap then is it?

    But for cadittes its a steal.
