I had been shopping processors the previous day ... and just happended
to notice the glaring almost 2:1 price differential. I generally only
check web page mail-order terms on the lower couple sellers ... like
shipping costs, return policy, warranty, etc ... before I buy. It's
simply not my job, or worth my time, to search the several thousand
vendors that sell this product in the US ... much less the world.

It seems to me that it's in the best interest of an e-business to
take responsibility for timely representation of THEIR data on
search engines ... not the customers. Maybe Paragoncomp needs to
fix their technical relationship here ... or continue to loose sales.

The real point is the Duffy tried to make his sale look better than
it really was with the 4-fer gimmic ... and ended up doing a USENET
cancel attempting to hide their mistake. Using the net to allow people
to become self informed only makes the market more competitive, and
help them not get scammed.
