249.99 2500k, but then they are having 70$ instant savings... only 179.99.
AWESOME deal!

they have some killer cpu/mobo bundles. i am glad i am happy with my build otherwise id be kicking myself at these prices.

for all of you looking to build rigs now or real soon, compare these to what you have been.

Sadly there are no micro centers near my home.

thats a bummer. if you shop them right, they can be cheap. but if you go to a store, chances are you are paying sales tax, which is equal to or greater than shipping.

That's where I got my 2500K. I think that was the price I paid too.

Georgia has been having back to school tax free holidays for a number of years. I do not understand the hype.
The stores do not discount during these sales so you are only getting a 7% discount. Yet people flock to these things and buy like crazy, Including computers. You would save more shopping store back to school sales where they offer a much larger discount.

Holy cow... that is one hell of a deal. Do you guys think Newegg will lower the price if I show them this?

It wouldn't hurt to ask.

They said they don't match competitor prices

EDIT: Good news! I found a Microcenter in Long Island and a friend of mine (who drives further east) is willing to go and pick it up on his return. HUZZAH!
