I'm happy to get one of these for $400. Some guy bought alot of the dell deals where they can get a 3.2 server for $495. He sold me one for $400. Should I just buy more from him and start selling on ebay or anything?

Nay... You're lucky to get 400$ for them on ebay after fees.

so you saying that I shouldn't buy them to sell right? If it's only $400 on ebay, then I'll just stick with mine.

Put it this way. Mine just sold for 425$ Ebay takes about 5% You're down to ~5$ profit. They pay with paypal, you lose money.

The guy you're buying from is the one making the killing here. Get him to sell you the chips at $ 300 or $ 350 if you want to resell them.

Don't think of making profit.

Just enjoy your new processor. ;)

I was actually considering dropping that much for an Athlon64 when they launch next week. Sadly, reality kicked me in the ass and told me to stop dreaming. :(
