OEM CPU's

[DJ-CHRIS]

OEM is good to buy if it's a trusted vendor.

I like to buy retail cause i get the sticker lol. IDK why but im amused by the stickers that come w/ them and i use the hetasink for building other computers that would use a heatsink like that.

The good thing is he said he would send it first, then when i get it i send the money....

well that wouldn't be a bad deal, i guess.

try before you buy.

he must really trust you a lot.

i don't know anyone who would give a "stranger" $125 and wait till they give it back...hmmm.

and you say he says, " its supposidly new. He says he knows someone who works for ebuyer."

sounds a bit odd though.

if it's a respectable vendor, i wouldn't worry too much and consider it a good deal...however....

you say, "hmmmmm well im buying off someone over the net that ive been palying cz with for quite a while."

that's cool and all, but where is he going to send the "package"? your house?
then he'll have your address, knows a little bit about you from on-line, and giving you this very good deal....seems a little odd to me, that's all.

i'm not tryin' to freak you out or not trust this guy, just don't wanna see you get burned.

$140 is A LOT of money to be playing w/, whatever your salary is.

but as long as you have some kind of warranty, you should be fine.

I wouldnt trust him. only if i knew him real well like a good freidn that i hang out w/ everyday. then i would trust him.

[Nubius]

Im gonna see speak to others that hes sent them too and see what happens.

All CPU's speeds vary and ppl buy multiple OEM CPU's and max clock them to find the best 1 then they sell the rest so be careful when buying unsealed CPU's.If you recieve a CPU with compound stains on it,you can rest assured its been clocked!
