Looking for a desktop deal. I don't need a monitor, just the CPU

[christina5704]

I know this is soooo last minute but we bought a CPU from geeks.com, got it this evening and plugged everything up and it doesn't work. I am looking for something in the $250.00ish range, it can be refurbished. This is for my husband and son who don't do nearly as much stuff as I do on the computer. lol Thanks in advance

Can anyone tell me if this is a good deal? Thanks

I think it's a good price but you have to remember that's its a refurb - and the warranty is only 90 days. I've been looking for a processor only and this type of unit new has been running around $350 without the monitor.

Thanks for your reply I ordered a computer for them from geeks.com but when I got it yesterday it was DOA! Now, I am hesitant to order from them again. And figured if maybe the one at walmart was decent I could at least take it back to the store and pick up a square trade warranty.
