I don't think eVGA has em in stock right now, suprisingly. But i will happily trade up to one when they do come in...

Screw this price gouging crap all these internet companies are charging, they are already making money off of these cards.

At least they're down to $424 from $480 Hopefully the fact stocks are increasing and prices are decreasing (even if they're still just going *back* to MSRP instead of falling from there like previous video releases have done :disgust: ) means 6800 Ultras will be attainable soon. And hopefully 6800 Ultras in a PCI-Express version soon after that.

I want my PCI-E 6800 Ultra! :| I'd pay $600 for one right now, sadly enough. Then again, if I'd pay $600, they'd Ebay for $800

The stores apparently get these cards for ~$325US. The price gouging is terrible; that's why I'm waiting for the supply to pick up before I buy one of these cards.

Damn Newegg! First you want tax, and now this.

$425 is hardly a bad price, remember that $10 of that goes towards shipping. For neweggs excellent service, an extra $15 might be worth it.

Considering that most of the time these computer stores have a profit margin of less than 10%, the 25% margin that Newegg and the other stores have going on these cards is outrageous.

I got an eVGA 6800 GT from Newegg weeks ago for $409 (shipping included)...

The card is still worth $430 IMO, so this isn't too painful. You have to remember that you do get FarCry with eVGA cards, which is a $30 value. I already finished it, so I gave my copy to a friend.

Shipping is not included. The price of this card w/ shipping is $429.

Yeah, i was watching the site 2 days ago when that card was due back in stock. It didn't show up that day, but i did see the price hike from $409 to $424 while waiting. ack.
