Just called about 10 mins ago to a TD agent and they showed my order as being for 2 680i motherboards to which I promptly cancelled. Do yourself a favor and get it out of the way now before they send you the boards and have to pay to send them back.
Guys this is a typography error as someone from EVGA said themselves.
Here's how it works, on YOUR side you see item numbers, part numbers and pictures that match the GTX 260, but on THEIR database side, someone put in a SKU or internal database number that matches the 680i, so while you're trying to add it to cart and trying to order a GTX 260, on their side, their computers see "680i added to cart".
This isn't a bait and switch, it's a complete mess up. The item number for the GTX 260 could've been 12345 and the item number for the 680i could've been 13245.
And honestly you could've seen this coming, it's not fair to call it a hoax or scam or something. You knew walking into this that this was most likely a mistake. I mean come on, the 8800GTS G80 has been out of circulation for a year now and most retailers still have those hanging around the shelves for $350. Even if the GTX 270 and GTX 290 were around the corner, the 260 and 280 wouldn't be clearanced out for 50% off or more. I watched this thread from the moment it surfaced because I knew it was similar to a situation where a 37" 1080p TV on a website was listed at $345 and people were maxing out their credit cards placing orders on SD. When they deal fell through, they tried to give the site bad ratings and reseller/pricegrabber took the site's back because no one's going to expect a site to take a $10,000 to $20,000 hit for "customer service".
Not in today's economy.
So cancel your orders before you get shipped a 680i motherboard. This was a mistake on Amazon.com's part and if you cry hard enough, I'm sure they'll reimburse you shipping charges to refund the motherboard and they might even give you a $20-30 coupon so you really CAN order a GTX260, but for a reasonable "deal price".
