Check out the codes post on the main page. I would think that your local vendor would allow you to see the serial numbers if you offer to purchase based on the codes on the main page. If not you don't want to do business with him anyway.

I wouldn't bother messing with a local dealer, especialy at that price. The last I checked, a 1.2 266 could be had for $229 + S&H, and 1.2 200s are even cheaper. BTW, you want to check the second line of code on the chip. Ed has an article in the front, and you want to see if you can get one starting with "AXIA"

Yeah I'm going with the 1.2 266 will order it today if the funds clear on my card. This is the best price I've seen for the 266 FSB I got it from Stool. Athlon
