Just seen the price change to £499.95. If you are within the refund period, phone Amazon customer service and ask for a refund...merely at clientco for the entertainment -
I thought that might happen when I saw your post about the TI - just couldnt wait to install itOriginally posted by eek View PostJust seen the price change to £499.95. If you are within the refund period, phone Amazon customer service and ask for a refund...
I'm onto Amazon to see what they can do though not going to worry too much about £50 quid after all my company paid for this for multi-monitor support

They are usually quite accommodating and reasonable and can manipulate prices to an extend. One of my deliveries went missing, so they had me to cancel the order and re-order it, when i pointed out that i mad the original order at a much lower price (can't remember if it was deal or the price just went up in the meantime) they told me to do the re-order anyway and give them the order number so they went in and adjusted the price manually to the original order price.Originally posted by woohoo View PostI thought that might happen when I saw your post about the TI - just couldnt wait to install it

Worst case scenario if they refuse to refund you the price difference - start a return procedure for the original order and make a new order at the lower price, when the item arrives - send it right back as a return of the original item, no need to remove the already installed GPU, package it etc.Comment

I've done the same myself in the past - delivery and collection came on the same day so I asked the driver to wait 2 minutes as I opened the box removed the despatch note added the return slip and put on the return label.Originally posted by sal View PostThey are usually quite accommodating and reasonable and can manipulate prices to an extend.

Yeah there's on point for regular work or coding. Windows is seemingly more efficient now than it used to be so why upgrade just for the sake of it.Originally posted by Scrag Meister View PostI used to build every 2-3 years but that has slowly drawn out, to a point where I dont even have a schedule for my next one.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment
