SSD Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Check on eBay, lowest price is ~$135. I got mine on eBay for $59 (shipped). Was not a refurb - but a new system pull. It needed the bracket which are hard to find. HERE is another source for $58 (free shipping). I saw a reference to someone buying from this vendor in another forum asking about the bracket, so assuming it does not come with one. Do the br10i's from this printsavings.com come with the bracket? If so, you might want to pull the trigger if you want one. Next thing you know the guy will raise the price again. Link to comment

Next thing you know the guy will raise the price again. Yes they do. At least my first one did. I should have the 2nd one tomorrow. Standard height bracket. Edit: I'm not really sure how printsavings handles their inventory since they have several listings at several different prices for that card. I assume they source them from different suppliers. So YMMV on the other cards. Link to comment
j5428 Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 I ordered three this weekend and they canceled the order. Said they were backordered. I see they are back on the site so I emailed the sales and service depts to see if they will ship my cards for the original price. Waiting to hear back. Link to comment
j5428 Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 They had them listed again on their site for around $54 refurbished. I ordered 1 again this morning and the order was canceled again. Got my cables from amazon and still no card to use. What a great company this is. They referred me to another website that was useless. Anyway just my experience with this company. Link to comment
j5428 Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Looks like they still have 80 available not to ship for $80.00 if you do a search on their site for br10i. Stay away from this place would be my recommendation. Link to comment
queeg Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 I had ordered 2 and then 1 the day they started showing no inventory and all 3 just arrived together in one box. The bag around them is folded in a specific way which makes me suspect they are either new or refurbished. Each has the full height bracket that has the two led holes. Link to comment
BRiT Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 I suspected that none of them were ever truly new but most likely system pulls. Though some could come out of a server with no use at all as sometimes it's cheaper to order a pre-configured server as is than to remove unneeded parts. Link to comment

That's how my second one came today. The first one was sealed and folded in the same manner but also in a sealed box. Installed, flashed it to the latest. No issues. According to the born on date, it's slightly newer than my first one. Link to comment
SSD Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 The demand for this controller must be going up! I posted THIS LINK where the card could be bought for $58 yesterday. Today it is $70. Link to comment
cj0r Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 So happy I got my refurbs when I did... provided they work since I haven't been able to test yet lolol. My CPU should arrive tomorrow so that will be the moment of truth. Link to comment

I checked one of my boards and it already has the firmware I was going to load onto it. Very nice. Link to comment
