1/5

posted Mar-06-2003

I ordered a Radeon 9500 from Memory Media. The webpage specifically said that it was the older model, with the red PCB, that you could softmod to turn it into a 9700PRO. Well, 4 days later, when my order hadn't shipped, I called and asked why, and they said they had no idea, but that it would go out that day. They fedexed it to me, and when I opened up the package, and low and behold, what do I see, but the new version of the card, on the black PCB, which you CAN'T mod at all. I called them, and they said "well, we don't know which one we're going to get sent, the red or the black," so I politely told him that on their webpage it SAID red, black wasn't even mentioned. I now have to return the card and buy somewhere else, but I checked their page, just for kicks, and they still specify under that item that it's the red pcb, not black.

UPDATE:
It's been a week since Fedex Picked my card up, they still haven't gotten it, and they won't give me a tracking number for it. Once they do, it takes 2-3days for them to put it in the system, and another couple days to process it. So it looks like it'll be about three weeks after sending the card before I finally get my money back. It seems that taking money is their first priority, and giving it back takes the back burner if soemthing goes wrong.
