Eric,

I have been told this many times as if I am involved in some large tax
evasion scheme.  I pay ALL of my taxes every year.  Yes, you are correct and
I am aware of this.  The funny thing is that I hear this even though I am
paying 7% sales tax to NewEgg.  That is why I am paying $275 instead of $256
as previously stated.  Hopefully, $220 after tax and shipping if this coupon
works on Monday.  My Amazon pre-order will most likely not happen in a
timely manner if ever, so that point is moot.
