Misc D. V. CENTURY

I just tested this co out they were reciveing some bad reviews.
i found them on price watch so i ordered a vidio card just for fun. got to love credit card protection make you take chances on all kinds of stuff. ok my experance was not to bad the shiping was slow ordered on the 14th recived on the 26th the packing could have been better. i called on the 16th to see if they were gona ship it and was told it will go out tomarow. well they got a tracking number with ups but the item was not scaned in till the 19th hm started thinking of callin credit card co. but decided to wait. what i ordered was a a cheap $87 ati 8500 I was expecting a white box with no drivers "you know the deal". what i got was a Devil Monster 2 retail box drivers cable's and all. i bet it was out of stock so they sent the better video card its still a ati 8500 just a retail box. I was suprised due to them listing this card on the site for $105. if you order from this co dont go with the free shipping its way to slow pay for faster shiping. ill give url if any one wants to check them out or just look them up on pricewatch

Mang,
I just checked the price on http://www.dvcentury.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv for an AMD XP 1.9+ processor and they listed an OEM for:

584731(Detail Specs) AMD XP 1900 OEM $179.00

I checked pricewatch.com and stopped counting the venders at 12 who had the same processor for $85 or less, these prices included shipping.

That is pretty damn wild, HUH?

LOL Just for the hell of it I checked the price on an Abit AMD motherboard. All they listed was the older mobos.

I check the price on a KG7A RAID it was listed at:
ABIT KG7-RAID AMD Socket A w/ 4PC1 600/PC2100 DDR DRAM
Code: 856947(Detail Specs)
Price: $115.00


Again I checked pricewatch.com and found several venders at less than $77 with RAID All included shipping one I noticed was FedEx Saver

Re: Price screwy

Just like ever vender on line they have some things cheap some things priced way to high.
ill never under stand why they do that. i guess they think well im ordering one thing from them might as well get everything i need from same place and youl not care if its overpriced on most of it.

oh the vidio card works great. i was a nvida fan till yesterday that ati runs great. didnt think i would use it in one of my computers but im keeping it.

and good choice on abit. I run a old abit be62 ver 2.0 and its one of my faverit boards the hp 370 raid is a lot beter than the promis raid that is on my soyo dragon+
