Trinity Designs Prices for Cool People
Trinity Designs Prices for Cool People
Finally, Cool People
prices on the Web! I will update these prices as often (or call /
e-mail me and I'll get up-to-date prices) as possible socheck this URL often [Look at the "Last Updated" date]
These prices are ONLY
available to people that are on my Cool People list.
If you have any friends that would like to get a really good deal, send
me a e-mail and I guarantee you that I will give them a great price
(usually less than 10% mark-up).
Please note that I will also
have to charge everyone for sales tax (8.25%) and for any shipping
charges.
Beyond that.. the prices you will get through me will beat _any_
local store!
I still build full machines
but I will charge you some small fee for
building the machine since it does take time I *do* have a real job now!
NEWS: - AMD will drop the prices of their K5 and K6 processors on August 1st. Look for price cuts as deep as 50% by mid-August.
