So Close Yet So Far

[bossman111]

I was so damn happy when I heard that the package containing my two EVGA Superclocked 980 GTX's arrived at my house....

After waiting for about a month for it to arrive I couldn't believe that it was finally here...and that I could finally finish my Overkill Gaming build

My hands trembled with excitement as I slowly clawed away at the box.....My eyes lit up like that of a childs' on Chirstmas Morning as I bursted the last piece of scotch tape holding the box down.......Drool poured out of my mouth as I could no longer control the motor senses of that part of my body...... and finally after lifting the last and final box flap.....So beautiful....So wonderful was this feeling.....It was...it was..............

 

A BOX OF F****ING FRUIT SNACKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

So Amazon screwed up my order >_<  and after having waited nearly a month to get them because they were out of stock....I couldn't get them....And to make matters worse....They ran out of stock again..... So I still can't get them.....

Sooooo yeah.... Just thought I'd share this story with everyone, cuz well I have nothing else to do as I can't play on my new gaming rig as I still don't have the GPU's Q_Q

Amazon customer support should help you out.

Well it was fruit snacks.....at least better than getting a horrible thing.

[thekeemo]

Cant stop laughing >_<

[Semper]

Hey... at least it was fruit snacks. You can munch on their (likely) artificial fruitiness while you await your 980's. I mean... you could've gotten a box of dirt. that wouldn't have been much fun

[GhostWindGamer]

well that blows

A BOX OF F****ING FRUIT SNACKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

..and yet no pictures?

We're all aching for a good ol' unboxing. 

[AlexStriz]

Haha. I can imagine some random stresed mom with three little kids that are crying for their fruit snacks. She opens her package from amazon, relived that all the crying will soon finally stop. However, instead of her 150 piece jumbo Costco size box of Welch's fruit snacks, she opens her box just to find her package is filled with two Gtx 980s instead. Oh the disappointment

[DeViLzzz]

Pics or it is not real.

If they are haribo sugar free then don't eat them! Unless you want diarrhea with enough thrust to lift you off of the toilet.

You sir just made my day. Cant stop laughing

But on the bright side they will still run games better than XB1

This could not be a truer statement ^

These taste great but it's a trap, as they will make you experience Montezuma's revenge

Seriously

Can you give me the linx plox

[-ism]

I can only imagine your pain.

 

I bought my GTX 670 on a wednesday hoping it would arrive Friday, the pain of sitting by my window waiting for a UPS truck to pull up was excruciating.

 

It got here on the next monday.

Here's the pic for those of you wanting to see my hopes and dreams crushed  :mellow:

Well the first time I ordered it on amazon, they said it had just run out of stock and I would have to wait a while to get them..... So that was pretty lame but I decided to soldier on O_O

Man when this thing finally came I was just soooo.....Well I actually kept opening and closing the box hoping that somehow the GTX980's would magically appear after I opened it back up.......

Q_Q

[a_higby]

This is the best and worst thing I have ever read. Best because it's hilarious. Worst because I can only imagine how gutting that would be, I would curl up into a ball I'm sure.

[ShadowCaptain]

I would have been excited to get sweets :3

OMG!!!   you made me LOL hard.  Those reviews.....LOL!!!!

[colonel_mortis]

That means that someone probably ordered a box of snacks and instead got two 970s. If they know what a graphics card is, I bet they're feeling quite happy.

But amazon customer support is usually pretty decent, so you will be able to get a refund, and it might be possible to have a replacement, unless they completely empty their stock (which is possible).
