What do you reckon the catch / scam is?
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B076C45S44
You cant even purchase the graphics card on its own for that price? |
The insides are covered in poo.
While disastrous to most, this is your dream come true! |
Seriously though, the i7 costs more that the entire computer to buy on amazon on its own, same as the graphics card - Too good to be true is coming to mind - I really tempted - Amazon guarantee and all that... But don't want the hassle if its something really obvious that I'm missing?
I mean: 65% Off? Save £976.95? There's gotta be a catch? |
Oh well, off to bed now - If its still available when I wake up tomorrow, and there's no real reason not to do so, posted in this thread, then I'll click 'Buy Now' lol

First review titled "not as expected"

Not sure where you are seeing the price on the i7 either. Seems to be about a $300-$350 processor on its own with the GPU coming in at around $500
|
All built on the same board would be my guess as look like no cards in it anyway. The graphics card looks like it is there.
|
That graphics card can be bought for under 400 quid. The 2080TI's are the £1000+ ones
|
Well moot point - I should have taken the chance - This morning its now become Price:£1,199.95 and its now available on prime... I thought the catch might have been that it was sent from china and if I wanted it within a reasonable time, Id have to pay a huge delivery fee - But never mind - as they saying goes - "You snooze, you loose' and I snoozed and lost... :(

was on here yesterday with my own computer stuff and already had Amazon open when I read your thread. was in buyer mode myself so instinctively looked at the seller and his name was Jump. Han Jump or Hun Jump, not sure of the first name, with an address in China you saw as well now check your link again, the seller at the new price/on prime is the actual company, ADMI wonder if the co/Amazon caught the scam and took over the listing? whatever happened, don't think you missed out on anything |
don't be noobs, only buy parts then assemble
|
If you are buying PC, make sure you have enough brain to collect it all

I think you have got it in one - I remember looking at seller yesterday like you say and it was in china... Now it's the proper make from the UK... Thanks ! That cheers me up a bit lol |

It said 65% Off Save £976.95 but that was from some chinese seller Then this morning when I went to order it, it was about £1600.00 then its dropped back to £530.00 again. This wasn't from the Chinese seller - This was from the UK branch of the business located in England. Went back to get it now and it's at 1,199.95. Its fluctuating as I look at it... Literally really weird - Im gonna start doing screen grabs... |

That is weird at £530 and must be some sort of scam or typo. |

Most of the time when you see a deal on a computer or parts online, it's really shitty or not what they say... For example, some might just say i7, there are a lot of different i7's. Mine is 4 years old and 8 cores. |

and as said above, some of the spec is not accurate, overclocking to get the 5ghz etc :2 cents: |
