This is a system I bought from them a few months ago:

It's not bad for what I paid, about the same as you, and it seems to outperform yours.
Like they said, I'd go back, cancel, and try again if I were you. It's all about timing.
I also prefer CRT to LCD, so that might be a factor in your pricing. I upgraded to a 19" CRT. But I also have a video card that allows me to have multiple monitors, and that is worth it in and of itself.
Also, it's completley nutty that I had to pay $20 to have a 3.5" drive.
