Bought MSI K8T NEO2 FIR
Silex was the Seller on August 29, 2005 AnandTech
On 8/13 (Sat) I sent paypal (including fees). On 8/16 (Tue) seller indicated board was shipped. On 8/19 seller provided DC# at my request and said the board should "get to you by today, but hopefully by tomorrow or at most, Monday." The board arrived on 8/24.
I built the system on 8/27 and the board would not POST. All other system components are brand new except the video card. I tried three different video cards in the board (including a PCI card) and still no POST. I installed the included Diagnostic Bracket and it indicated failure at "early chipset initialization".
I informed seller of DOA and he said the board was AS-IS and he sent a copy of his receipt so I could RMA the board. He did not offer to pay shipping for the RMA or any other remediation.
No where in the PMs or emails was AS-IS stated. It was not in the original post either (seller claims it was, but has deleted info from post and I did not save a copy...silly me).
Overall, I am not happy with this deal or this seller. I will RMA the board and will probably be fine eventually.
This was just not a pleasant experience (unlike the rest of my trades on Anandtech).
Response from SilexThis buyer defintely saw my Terms as they were blatantly posted at the end of the OP. I advertised the motherboard with a 3 year warranty as provided by MSI and evn emailed him the original receipt. He even lost that copy so I mailed him it again. This transaction went the way it should have and the buyer just needs to be more careful reading Terms from now on.August 30, 2005

Good buyer. He paid quickly. I sent wrong DC by accident, but sure enough package arrived safely and on time. Sorry for any delay caused by that. Hope to do business again with this buyer.
