Appears to be a new operation perhaps trying to make a name for itself. You might want to use a one time use credit card until they've proven themselves.

Here's a link to all of their video cards sorted by price.

Perhaps some of you internet sleuths can shed some more light on the legitimacy of this site.

They have no customer service. So what happens if I order a 9800 GTX and get a basement instead?

See we should be telling all the newbies to jump on the deal. That way the rest of us will know if the place is reputable or not and they can build up some good or bad resellerratings. I mean ... someone's gotta be the guinea pig.

I don't know.... might be worth the risk of a 1 time use credit card. Worst case, you file a dispute. Best case, some stolen vid cards

Interesting checkout system.. everyone puts stuff in one basket, someone pays and you all jump in and hope you get what you want at the end!
I am about 30 miles away, but if I have a reason to get over to that part of town, I'll take a look... not sure I'll see anything as they'll all be in the basement though....

I may drive by here over the next few days and check it out. I'll also call them locally.

I got to chat to the customer service. They said they were having some pricing issues and they were still fixing them. They also said they just launched their site last month.

nice if they haven't updated prices in the month they have been operating, how long is it going to take them to ship your item(s)??

I caught a CSR in live-chat and they said they're opening a store-front at their Gilbert location on July 14th.

I ordered a CPU for a ridiculously cheap price, but they cancelled my order and corrected the price of the item in their website. I think they are legit, but they messed up the pricing.
