the problem is getting your hand on the supply, and you better be prepare to deal with difficult/picky customer, and you will surely get some bad reps if you happen to sell certain batch of CPU that don't overclock worth a damn...seen it many times. Some people just do not know how to appreciate this sort of service, ask TankGuys and I'm sure he'll give you some pointers.Quote:

Unless you do some serious volume (and I'm talking thousands of items at a time) not only will you not get any discount, but the pricing you'll get will be significantly more than you'd pay even shopping at any of the major stores. Not to mention, I'd be more than willing to bet you don't have a good understanding of the associated costs of doing business, am I right? ;)Quote:

Yes, I'm sure if the additional overhead of tracking what processors were what stepping wasn't an issue some more retailers would be doing so. Even now Newegg is still sending out mostly or at at least half C0 steppings, even from the same warehouse.
Added, thanks!Quote:

my order page says out of stock still thuo:(
Yep, I saw that too. I started to send them an email about it but after giving it some thought I was going to wait a bit longer first. I see it now says out of stock again (and no change in my order either), so either its a refresh timing issue with their website program or something else.
I know now my batch: 3847A764 SLBEJ
So i hope it is good:)
Have it later today or tomorrow.
it got my hopes up because the list time i talked to someone there he said monday or tuesday.Quote:

Santa Clara Microcenter just got in a new shipment today. Was told they were not D0. The guy specifically told me that they're all SLBCH. Don't expect Microcenter to get another shipment in for another 2 - 3 weeks.
Fry's in Fremont and San Jose both don't have it either. It would be great if someone knew if Fry's Campbell or Sunnyvale had it.
4 now, just ordered one! $305 total, there is a $2 handling fee. They actually called me to verify the CC info. I like that, it makes me feel warm and fuzzy.Quote:

I was promised last week my D0 would be sent, then was told that this week they might come in, then was told that if they don't come in this week they will cancel my order.
what a shame. They need better communication within their company and distributor. I got my order, but it was a C0, sent it in, and that was monday of last week. Now I am going on week 2....still nothing.
just a heads up to those who are waiting for Compumusic to do their part and send out our replacements...it might not be happening.
Start thinking refund.
