Sounds like a buy to me. only $235 for a "INTEL P4 2.8C GHz 800MHz FSB SL6Z5 M0 CORE STEPPING 512K W/ HEAT SINK & FAN RETAIL BOX 3 YEARS WARRANTY" not sure what the street price is, but man I wish I had $235 now :(

Nice find , BUT ... Anyone order from this place before (memorylabs.com) ?

WOW .... SHIPPING IS $18 :eek: . Kinda takes the fun out of this . I guess if you want a M0 stepping bad enough its worth it .

*edit*
Going to have to check resellerratings on this one .
RESELLERRATINGS (http://www.resellerratings.com/seller3271.html) a 2.08 RATING , NOT GOOD ; BUYER BEWARE !!!

Gee, manufacturer's policies sure haven't stopped Newegg from handling RMAs proper.

Reading through some of the complaints...seems as if it's a bunch of shipping issues, unclear...material I guess you could say, someone bought optodisc dvd-rs and received unmarked gold for general purpose...they contacted these people, and gave a phone number to contact optodisc at to confirm they did make media like that.

You can only contact them in the morning apparently, as "John Wayne" doesn't monitor his phone after morning, though the hours are 9-6.

And they answer "I don't know" when asked why the shipping sits on "will ship in 24 hours" for a good...looked like 3-4 days at least.

Others have had good luck, guess the packagers didn't have any of the sticky stuff on those days. :rolleyes:

I wouldnt buy from them, memorylabs.net is as bad as BuyAib and both are infamous for bait and switch, chances are YOU WILL NOT get what you pay for.
