Sigh.............:eek: :mad: :(
You must've already been charged for the item. I would have bought elsewhere by now. Heck I'm thinking of getting a 6700 instead and selling my 6600. I thought the 6700's would be closer to $700. $600 seems pretty reasonable during a launch & shortage.Quote:

I saw the thread where Cather tested different grid and 600 turn out to be the best.Quote:

She said that they are getting a bunch in though. So I ordered one today. Hopefully I am in line. If not I at least get it cheaper than almost anywhere else. :/
Overnight shipping too so I will hopefully get it the 22nd or 23rd [23rd w00t! THE DAY I START SCHOOL!]
About when did you place your order?Quote:

An update on my ClubIT order...
Ever since the debacle on launch day, ClubIT has been trying very hard to make nice with me. They agreed to honor their original deal, and my 6600 has shipped, though I do not have a tracking number yet. They also sent me a t-shirt and a copy of GRAW. I also got a call from an Intel Field Sales Engineer, and they are taking the blame for the mixup, and they also want to make me happy.
Although the ball was dropped on Aug 7, ClubIT and Intel are bending over backwards to ensure that I am a satisfied customer, and I have to respect that. With this kind of dedication to customer service, I have to think that I will be dealing with them again.

Later that day they called me left message said they had 'em. I called back, was put on hold forever, so I hung up emailed them saying go through with order. Today they finally update that my order is no longer cancelled. I sent email enquiring about when it would be shipped. I asked to ship today or I will pay for usps overnight if they ship tomorrow. Got two emails later. One saying send $64 for overnight, the next saying your package has shipped USPS Parcel Post!. I immediately called, they said your order has not shipped yet. I gave name of person who sent email they said no one works here by that name. I said I paid for usps priority. Was told we'll make sure it get shipped out that way..click. Rude :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: ing person. I'm certain it will be next Saturday before I see this motherboard.:mad:Quote:

I'd give BLT a call. There was a problem with my card(used shopsafe) and David called me up this afternoon to straighten it out. Seemed like a decent guy. Did you change your order at anytime or anything like that?
This was for a 6600, just for the record.
Yeah, I was close to cancelling once or twice and just getting a 6400 since I've already spent a small fortune on a motherboard, ram and a bunch of watercooling equipment. But I ended up getting a retail 6600 for 355 shipped, which is a bit less than Newegg, ZZF, Clubit and so on. It worked out in the end.Quote:

BLT's prices seem very fair, and since it seems very likely that they will be getting some E6700's and other conroes in stock in the next few days, I'm betting theres a good chance my chip will come from them :)
565 for boxed isn't bad at all. I don't expect the price to drop much more than that as long as the tray prices are, what? 530'ish?
-Stigma
Yep, I ordered from them yesterday afternoon - Retail E6600 ($369) + ASUS P5B Deluxe WiFi ($223). Altogether, $606 shipped and no tax, yay! :) ShopBLT has even better price ($345) but not in stock yet and projected to perhaps have some today, according to their realtime status. But I wanted to get this over with and ordered from ISORM :lol: This morning they called me to confirm it and let me know it will ship today. So far, so good...Quote:

Email this morning....looks to have 17 E6600 in stock
Haha, man these guys are great! :) I just called them up and asked If I can have the price adjusted, since I ordered last night and was charged for a CPU $369 this morning. A sales rep (Matt) said "no problem" and I'm back to $359 :lol: Sweet! :toast:Quote:

I think the prices shopBLT is offering them for now is probably about as low as youl see them until there is some kinda pricecut (probably at _least_ not until the kents get here, so don't hold your breath for that).
I'm glad I waited tho... the prices at BLT now are after all ca 150USD lower than neweggs original monsterous 700USD pricetag for the E6700 ~_^ It does make a difference, especially when im buying three of these (building some systems for various friends of mine).

Not in this lifetime lol.Quote:

i just ordered a retail E6600 from www.markonecomputers.com for $348 + shipping. They have a good reseller rating and seem to be well priced. I'll let you guys know what happens.
Got mine on Saturday, but didn't install it yet- :( Will try to do it tonight. I ended up getting a week 25
well, markonecomputers turned out OOS so i quick searched on Newegg and found em in stock! After ordering mine though it quickly went to OOS though, sorry guys...
Anyone who preordered a OEM e6600 from Fry's Outpost have any idea when they are suppose to get in stock? Last I called they said today, and that was on the 17th. If nothing get said here I'll call them after work.
i FINALLY got my 6600s. unfortunately, they're all for pre-order fulfillment.
e6700s are slated to show by the end of the week.

I called outpost.com just now and the guy said they were suppose to have them today, but they never came. He said maybe tomorrow. At least he was courteous and said that he was also waiting on it too and is in the same bind as I am. [having all the parts except for the processor] Come on Intel! Deliver those bad boys!

if anyone has gotten a 6600 from monarch, what week are they shipping?
very truly yours,

anybody pick up an oem e6600 from micro center like really recently? Just wanna know what batch week they got.
My Retail 6600 is on the FedEx truck to be delivered today...Got it from ClubIT, who have been really nice to me since they couldn't deliver on Aug. 7.
I'll check back with the date code later.
Now All I have to do is decide on a Mobo. P5BD seems to be the front runner ATM, since I don't really care about dual video cards.

I just got a Week 26 E6600 from Newegg, pack date 08/07.
:woot:
Just had a visit from Santa Claus (AKA the FedEx guy), and he dropped off my brand new week 27 E6600. Any word on how well the week 27's perform?
Mark
Funny, preordered mine 7/28. After reading a few posts about Monarchs reliability being questionable, called them around the 8th about to cancel preorder.... They shipped it 8/10, got it on the 14th ( been running 3.33 ghz 24/7 since). Maybe you should give them a call?Quote:

No word yet on what you guys got from shop blt? I couldn't take it anymore & ordered from newegg Today. I'll post back what I got in a couple of days:)
I got a week 24 from NewEgg last week, received my processor on Thursday, ordered on Friday(long wait, I know.)
Just an FYI: We've got 6300, 6400, 6700, and 6800's in stock right now. We'll have 6600's in and shipping Friday.
What week are your 6400's?

I want one of your 6600's what are the chances of usps overnight if I order on from you Friday a.m.Quote:
Originally Posted by TankGuys

If you order Friday, it won't ship until the Friday night batch, which doesn't usually "ship" (reach the carriers) until the following day (sat for USPS, Monday for FedEx). So yea, Thursday is the better bet :)Quote:

Will do and thanks for quick responses. Your customer relations is what keeps me coming back to ya. BTW will you have more P5W DH Friday? Preloaded with the 1101 bios? There's a greater chance of that board having the 1.85v chipset.Quote:

Too bad zipzoom doesn't do same day order processing. If I order Wednesday a.m. it won't process and ship 'til Thursday or Friday.:(
Seriously, any idea which week ZipZoom might have? Are the week 25s still shipping. Can I be conifdent I'd get a week 26 or 27?
My Newegg order shipped today from the TN warehouse. I can let you know what I get Thursday. Eta for more is supposedly 9/1/06. Tankguys is the same way, I should have one of theirs by Saturday, But I'm sure Ben will post in here what he has available Friday. Right now I'd avoid week 24's.
...and week 23's. I know of myself and quite a few others with "bum" 23's.
Thanks.
Pretty sure all the neweggs should be 26 and 27 from the few people I asked recently
As far as I know, all ours are at least week 26. From the ones I looked at, I did not see any earlier ones.
That's not to say it's impossible though - I was only able to check a few, but I'll try and get a better idea Thursday night.
TankGuys...is this Ben? :)
I'd put money down if you could guarantee me a week 27 E6600 on Friday... :)
Yep, always ;)Quote:

I don't get my "stock" until Thursday afternoon, and we'll be spending much of the afternoon/evening packing those for pre-orders. I'll then check the remaining ones and get them listed based on what they are.Quote:

:) I knew we'd be able to count on Ben stopping by with good info on inventory. I'm just gonna order one usps overnight Thursday afternoon. I'm pretty sure I'll be happy. TankGuys never let me down with dual core optys:)
ClubIT has stock, $354.99 shipped. So does Outpost, $357 shipped (E6600s)
