Microcenter.com Reseller Rating

Their ratings seem to be hit and miss. For a $400 video card for $150, I'd use a 1-time use CC number and hope for the best.

Must have been a price mistake. They are no longer letting it be added to the cart.

Thanks for letting us know, I have fixed the title and noted on the OP.

This deal is still alive!!! Rebate runs through the end of July, I just added to my cart to test BTW, this card is the fastest in that series of cards.
