Forum CPU & Components : CPUs [Solved] I am purchase-nervous...

Hello Forum,

I'm on an extreme budget, but all I need to complete my computer build now is an LGA1155 processor. I've waffled all around, but I've come down to the decision that I only need a $50-$60 CPU to get me through before my financial situation changes, where then I will take out the cheapy-chip and build a HTPC for my mom to replace her 7 year old Sony laptop that takes 2 minutes to open Internet Explorer.

So I was thinking of buying the top Sandy Bridge Celeron from Amazon, when I saw Directron.com selling the Pentium G620 for 59.99 shipped.
Now, I know that either will be fine in the short run till my finances change (and ivy bridge comes), but the $60 price for the Pentium would be ideal.

Can I have faith that this Directron is ok to buy from? They do have a lot of positive reviews on Google and price grabber, but I don't have the same peace of mind as buying from Newegg or B&H. Thoughts?
