TyGrr. It's called common sense. Only trade with people who have cred/rep. If they don't, tell them to ship first. If they won't - you should be happy, you just avoided being scammed.

I got a PM from this dude asking me for a loan.

Anyways, this is my guide to not getting scammed.

a) use heatware - it works
b) low/no feedback - have them ship first, if they won't then you won't get scammed
c) profit.

i've only been scammed once in 15 years, off ebay - this guy bullshitted on shipping me a single broken turntable instead of two and by the time it'd gotten to me the 30 day window of paypals retarded policies had passed. i was out $500 bucks, sucked, but i learned a valuable lesson.

thanks for the offer, i have a deal pending for a 6970 atm. i'll update the thread if it goes through.

Made a deal will Immunikization. Thanks for the offers guys.

would you be willing to ship first to someone with substantially more cred/feedback than you?

see my heatware (19-0) - http://heatware.com/eval.php?id=76107
or check ebay (13-0) member since '99 - http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&userid=hunda&ftab=AllFeedback

not trying to rip you off here, just doing my best not to get scammed.

Ugh. Why couldn't you have posted this like 2 weeks ago. Ended up trading a Galaxy 570 for 2 6870's.

I bought it from a member here in June or July I believe.

The X2 box actually has a X2 in it - I just decided to keep the X2 and sell the X6. I'll take a picture of the X6 and post it for you.

Going up!

I got my order over the weekend. Extremely hot, but very tasty peppers.

I just made a 16oz batch of salsa with 2 fresh peppers and HOLY SHIT that's hot. After a few bites of the salsa there is steam shooting out of my ears. My brother is a brewmaster and is going to attempt a 10gal brew with one of these. Naga beer anyone?

Sorry, I copy/pasted this from [H], I will accept BTC.

so don't buy it?

the gtx 570 is a little over 20% off of retail after shipping. i realize there's a rebate - but that won't be there tomorrow. also, i can give you a rebate - i'll send you $30 bucks in like 3-4 months if I remember to.

i don't price battle with rebates, it's stupid - if the rebate is that good, go buy it then and wait for your savings just like everybody else.

Pics added. I also decided to keep the x2 cpu, selling the x6 that I pulled.

heatware 16-0 (would have more if people would leave some bloody feedback) http://heatware.com/eval.php?id=76107

i wasn't really a fan of the dedicated physx gpu, so i'm going back to my crossfire roots. I'll pretty much only accept amazon payments, BTC, or USPS money order - to hell with paypal fees. Prices include shipping but not insurance, I'll be sure to remind you of that also.

I will entertain offers for large (22" +) LCD screen trades. Send me your offers.

$120 SHIPPED US/48 - AMD X6 1055T - CPU/HSF ~ I decided to keep my x2 since I installed it and unlocked it to 4 cores and have it stable at 4ghz. The X6 was run @3.8ghz and never got above 60C.

if that's not enough, go back to your paranoia cave.

You're probably going to find a lack of feedback because of the type of goods this guy sells. It's not illegal, but it's not exactly legal either.

In any case, I've ordered from him and received the goods - twice.

you already have a heavy weight.. it's called your body.

pushups and pull ups will bulk you up. also, if you're building mass (or trying to) how can you afford the food / supplements that comes with such a high caloric and high protein requirement?

just gonna throw you a protip - keep doing your 2 hours of running a day and spend the time you'd be pushing weights and recovering from it looking for work. you can bulk up later - besides, you're gonna want to do it right and that costs a decent amount of money on top of the gym costs.
