WD Blue 2TB $20 [Turned out to be a pricing error]

Aereldor

NOTE: This listing turned out to be a pricing error. NCIX is in the process of issuing refunds to buyers.

 

I came upon this a minute ago when I was trying to put together a cheap build. I think this might be the best storage deal I've ever seen. Sure, it's 5400 RPM, but it's two terabytes for $20. That's ten cents per gigabyte.

 

These drives typically go for $70- almost four times the current price.

Regards,

Aereldor.

 

Edit: Wow, fifteen minutes to sell it out. You guys are fast!

Hold up, hold up... before we get all excited, remember this is NCIX we're talking about here... who've had many pricing errors in the past ($260 MSI GTX 1070 Gaming X anybody?). Safe to say that if you 'buy' one, you'll receive an email in the near future notifying you that it's a 'pricing error' and offering you a refund or an alternative product.

'Fanboyism is stupid' - someone on this forum.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

It's when you've added them to the cart. I wouldn't mind buying four or six for the hospital, but I have a feeling that it'll just be refunded back.

Alright, who is willing to spend 20 dollars to test if this is true or not? Gaben already claimed all my money from Steam sale

"This product is not available."

 

Well dick. And here I got all excited at the prospect of finally parting ways with my WD Black woodpecker.

Aerocool DS are the best fans you've never tried.

Looks like my post here sold out the listing. For some reason, however, it still gets added to my cart.

 

Sorry, I wish I'd known you needed a replacement. I'd have messaged you with the information beforehand.

Sorry for what? Dude, this is an awesome catch. Hopefully those of you who got an order in receive a hard drive (or ten) and not a refund letter. I don't need to replace my WD Black...I just hate having it clicking away inches from my face lol

Think it's worth reporting? It's clear that he/she/2016 pronoun wanted to hide his/her/2016 pronoun address information. Maybe a moderator can remove it.
