Re: OT again, was Chipset fan

Yes, but their claim was that the MB and that box had to match serial
numbers. There was NO serial number on the box anywhere. They could have
swapped it then boxed the bad one in the new ones box. Or, they could
have actually tried to be helpful and stay 10 minutes late to allow me
to get them the box that night, but that was not an option with them.
Customer service is rule numero uno and in my opinion theirs is lacking.

In defense of Computer Deli, that's standard procedure for most
retailers.  I would never think of taking a bad item back to Target or
Best Buy without the packaging.  Just an observation.  

They've always helped me out greatly.  They even gave me a big
discount on a replacement T-bird when I accidently cracked the top on
my first one when putting on the fan.
