This is $93 at Newegg! Shipping was only $2.40 for me when I bought it a few hours ago.

I talked to Dell on the phone and they told me it came in the retail box from Creative and included all the stuff that comes with the normal version, including Rainbow Six 3 and Tomb Raider: Angel of Darkness.

It says it will take 1-2 weeks for the item to ship but I have a feeling it will be quicker. I ordered it a few hours ago and Dell put the delivery estimate as 10/27.

Note that I cannot prove this is the retail version. Sometimes Dell sells parts that are refurbished because they are meant to be replacements for Dells under warranty. But the Dell rep told me on the phone it was the retail version and even told me everything that came with it (which is everything the retail version has). Anyone who has ever had any experience with Dell knows they can tell you things are are not so true so buyer beware.

Even if it was refurbished with the sound card only though, it's still an awesome deal considering OEM refuribished models of this card sell for $83 at Newegg.
