44USD for a GF4 TI4200 128MB

This is from a newegg adv. in pcmag dated may 2003,
this must be a typo but is interesting to see if somebody really ordered this one.

My friend found a Ti4600 for 14USD on pricewatch. He ordered it and they even gave him a recipt for the card, but later they wanted 200 dollars for the card, and I got my hopes up too
