Dell Precision 370, P4 3.2GHz, 2GB RAM, 256MB QuadroFX3400 - £596.28

Hi,

Just got an email ad throught from Europc with this on it:


No Operating System, Pentium 4 3.2GHz Processor, 2Gb RAM, 2x 36Gb SCSI Hard Drives, DVD-ROM Drive, 256Mb Quadro FX3400 PCI-Express Graphics, Ethernet Adapter On board, Europc 6 Months Return to Base Warranty, Grade: Refurbished
£586.33inc vat (+ £9.95 postage)
http://www.europc.co.uk/store/view.aspx?t=emk&d=thu&pr=62921

Not got an OS and the hard disk isn't great capacity, but the Quadro FX3400 graphics card is worth over £700 by itself.

Here's a link to it on Pricegrabber: Quadro FX3400.

Wish I had the spare cash lying around to invest in this but still a couple of weeks away from pay-day so thought someone else might be interested.

Very possibly a pricing error but it's been on there at £704 for the last week and has just dropped in price today.

38 in stock at the moment and last time I checked a few hours ago so don't seem to be flying off the shelves so maybe manage to get myself one in a fortnight if the OH lets me!

Sorry, just copied as it was from the email.

Just thought someone might have wanted to buy it, bung the graphics card on ebay and get the PC for practially nothing. That's what I'd be doing if I had the spare cash.

I'm not an affiliate with Europc. I just thought I'd send on what I thought looked like a good deal when I got it emailed through.

I'll not bother in future.

Barely sell for £200 on ebay tho... Guess they're only worth what people want to pay, £700 for a graphics card is probably not most peoples idea of money well spent lol. One listed at £350 BIN failed to sell. But I agree this is a good deal, if I had the money I'd be there.
