they sucked anyways.

Well that fucking sucks.

Any other good used gear retailiers? I picked up a number of thinkpads from these guys.

Kinda shocked they decided to pack it in this close to the holiday.

I've never even heard of them.

They must have sucked.
But capitalism must go on.

Glad I never used them, in fact never even visited the website.

" The e-commerce landscape, as well as the consumer electronics market, has changed dramatically with intense competition and a 1000lb gorilla (do we really need to say who) competitor that can lose millions of dollars to buy customers and suck up inventory. They can lose money with impunity, supported by the stock market. We cannot. "

see this is what happens when you faggots use Amazon

Is that reference to Amazon, or Newegg?

>>35731087
Or Newegg. They're pretty massive in that market.

Or Zipzoomfly.

Or yes, Amazon.

Selling tech isn't exactly a greenfield market. You want to fight companies of that size, you'd better have something serious to compete on.

That said, it's always sad seeing a smaller organization die like this.

Well shit were will I get my core2quad now?

the lose millions is definitely amazon

There's something fishy going on there, seriously, there's no way in hell they'd just up and disappear like this without something major having happened. As for whether they'll tell anyone or it'll leak out remains to be seen but, something fucked up must have happened to cause this.

Something really fucked up.

>>35731087
No this is what happens when small companies lack the economies of scale to compete with big companies, and then pretend that their competitors are acting anti-competitively to get sympathy.

where will I buy my long obsolete motherboards?

>see this is what happens when you faggots use Amazon

They just sold a lot of old stuff, refurbs, and some odd and sometimes cool gadgets

They've had outstanding deals on new hard drives lately, both mechanical and solid state. Hell, they e-mailed me some highlights of their latest sale yesterday, for Flying Spaghetti Monster's sake.
