What makes me laugh is that they always seem to sell for the same price, but the guy won't sell more than one at a time for that price Smile I have one but won't buy more than one if I have to pay the same shipping each time Smile

He doesn't have one listed at the moment, and the listing says he doesn't ship outside the UK. He may if you ask him though, otherwise I could bid on your behalf when he lists another one, and forward it.

I've just contacted him to see if he still has more and ask whether he would ship to the US or if he would prefer to deal with me. I'll let you know when he replies.

The chip is cool, but the printing on the box looks like a homebrew inkjet. Pretty low budget. These were repackaged here in the UK.

evergreennow.co.uk has gone.

With regards to sealed box versions of anything, I dont see a problem in opening it up, as long as nothing is damaged or inner seals broken. The outer shrink sealing can be easily re-applied.

Yeah the box is not as nice as the US one. It just looks to be a plain box which some distibutor added a label and stuck the CPU and other stuff in.

Still its my first boxed cpu and Im a happy chappy Very Happy

He has one listed now which I am bidding on for you Smile Pretty good really, as he told me by email reently that he wouldn't sell any for less than £5 because he had done a deal with someone on most of his stock Smile

It's a shame the guy doesn't take Paypal and would rather claim a big deal than make one Sad Just another seller that says he has been offered more than he has Smile
