If anyone still has their retail edge bundle, I am interested in buying the motherboard and CPU
Q9300

I don't care for Vista.
I have no problem with you making a few dollars. But don't be too greedy.
If you still have the bundled and it is new, and sealed.
I am offering $320.
I think that is more than fair, since you only paid $260 and you get to keep Vista (or sell it to someone else)

just fyi,
no one paid $260, minimum would have been $286US + $42 for taxes when it came over the border, so in reality most paid $370+42 = $412 for the bundle.
i'll sell you the mobo for $150 as i still have it.

Considering price drops in Intel CPUs and the crappy Intel motherboard included in the bundle, the offer is fair.
If the only reason you buy the bundles is to make some money, or sell the things you don't want for near retail prices, don't complain. Almost everyone is aware of the bundles and pricing now. That's why you still have your $150 *cough* motherboard.

to be honest i bought the bundle as well and i didnt think of selling it but the price the OP is asking to pay is WAY WAY too LOW!!!!!!
i mean literally if someone buys it for $400 and you offer $320 do you expect them to get $80 for vista and get no benefit out of it?
i mean thats just plain idiocy
but yes the price of the bundle is now exceedingly high considering the price drop that intel just did and YES The_Madz will most likely never sell his board for $150 considering other people sell the same board for $100

There are a lot better ways to spend $140. That wasn't one of them.

Why buy the bundle if you don't want it?

I am not sure if I really want this board.
I have been out of it for awhile, hence my absence from RedFlagDeals.
But a fellow member pointed out to me the pitfalls of this motherboard. (Thanks R****r)

I didn't realize the Retail Edge Package was in USD.
If I get a deal, I will take it, if not, there are plenty of other boards out there.

Your offer is more than fair... $80 for the board and $240 for the CPU. Considering people are buying and expecting to buy Q6600s for $160, $240 for a hardware refresh on the Q9300 is fine.
Don't let profiteers and people trying to unload unwanted hardware guilt you into spending more than you want to spend.
