Most useless deal on NEW LGA 1155 heatsinks and fan 18 of them for $120 WTF?! :( [US]

hawaiims

Never seen a deal get hotter than this before! This is THE deal of a lifetime

 

Here are the CPU benchmarks. This is basically an ivy bridge i7 without the integrated GPU:

http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu=Intel+Xeon+E3-1230+V2+%40+3.30GHz

 

Same CPU selling for 230$ a piece on Newegg right now. That's 4200$ worth of Xeons for 120$ on ebay. Excuse my language, but holy shiiiiiiiiet!

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819117286

 

BRAND NEW XEON E3-1230v2 (4 cores, 8 thread, 69 watts, LGA 1155 clocked at 3.3 ghz with turbo up to 3.7)

 

http://ark.intel.com/products/65732/Intel-Xeon-Processor-E3-1230V2-8M-Cache-3_30-GHz?wapkw=e3-1230+3.3

 

I would have bought this in the snap of a finger if sellers actually knew how to ship on the cheap to Hawaii :( . Anybody buying this can EASILY make 2000 bucks profit just from selling them back individually on ebay.

You can probably tell how excited I am by this deal

 

It would be great if someone could pony up and buy the set, then sell some of them individually to some of us LTT members. I'll pay 20 bucks per CPU to whoever buys this. I'll pay for 4 of them if that person is willing to sell.

 

and don't forget, even if the seller has no feedback IT DOES NOT MATTER. I ordered one of those 80$ 1440p yamakasi monitors and got my full refund including shipping from ebay quickly when nothing was ever sent and the account taken down. This seller also actually seems legit. 

 

Edit: got so excited I forgot to put the link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/CPU-Fan-Heatsink-18-units-Intel-Xeon-Processor-E3-1230-V2-LGA-1155-/131148736709?pt=US_CPU_Fans_Heatsinks&hash=item1e8912e8c5

 

You know what, I might even buy it if my gf doesn't get supermad at me for ordering nearly 20 CPUs lol

 

AAAAAAAAAAANNNND I just realized they are just the intel heatsink and fans. Still a relatively good deal but not ridiculously good.

If it sounds to good to be true.. It almost always is.

 

Edit: Dude they are selling the heatsinks. It says in the item specs "Type: CPU Fan with Heatsink"

No seller feedback.. . Clearly states in the title CPU fan and heatsink. CPU is clearly not included. No thanks

Good news, I reverse image searched the pic on the ebay post and got no results other than the post itself. This tells me with pretty good confidence that it's not a stolen picture and is legit.

you're not gonna OC with locked intel CPUs anyways. Think about it, 18 i7 3770 CPUs basically for 120$

I meant that the lot is just boxes and heatsinks. No CPUs.

I have to admit, I laughed when I really thought of the conversation that you would have with your GF (based off your words and a little injection of my relationship).

Him: "Hey honey... please don't be mad at me, but there was this great deal on CPU's that I just had to get. It only costs 120 plus shipping, but don't worry, I got 18 of them and can easily sell them for 20 dollars to others and still be a great deal for them."

Her: "YOU WHAT? NO ONE SELLS THINGS THAT CHEAP UNLESS IT IS A SCAM!!! I can't believe I am even dating you, you better give me half of the profits - up front, pay up now."

 

Two weeks later when the shipment arrives.

Him: "Uhh... sweetie... you remember those CPU's I told you about for 120 dollars?"

Her: "Yea, did you finally figure you got scammed?"

Him: "No, they came, 18 boxes of CPU fans and heat sinks"

Her: "Wait, they sent you extra? What kind of idiot sold it so cheap and sent you extra? GREAT, more money for me... I mean us"

Him: "No, no, I thought I bought 18 CPU's, these are the fans and heat sinks"

Her: "Ohh, so you did get scammed - told you so!"

Him: "Umm... not really."

Her: <Looks at him quizzically>

Him: "They actually said on the listing that they were CPU Heatsinks and fans... I just didn't read correctly."

 

And this is what posting a "deal" on here can save you - your relationship status. Now that's a perfect reason to be on here so much and how I'm going to justify it to my GF now. Thanks!
