How much did you spend on your 6990?

[KING_OF_SAND]

Simple question for those who have the card. The 6990 seems to have a HUGE gap in terms of pricing, ranging from $650 if you are lucky and $800.

I purchased my Sapphire 6990 for $785.00. Really was not my money rather an Amazon loyal customer gift card. But still that is REALLY expensive!

I will be getting mine on the 15th of this month!

It's $710 on Newegg for the Sapphire and PowerColor ones.

hardware prices over here are always massive compared to across the pond, look at the gigabyte g1 assassin thats £440 or there abouts and thats $720

 

[SieB]

Strait conversions from £ to $ don't work because of UK tax also Americans get rebates so they usually end up paying less.

 

[thestepster]

yeah thats what im sayin we get charged quite a bit more over here for stuff

 

[T.A.K]

I would still rather live in England than the US. Even if things are cheaper over here.

Why if you dont mind me asking?

i can understand living in england because they have some awesome sites but other than that i personally do not see anything beneficial over there that you cant get here and cant get here for better. in the US.

with VAT and delivery?

Yeah that includes vat and not delivery, so add about £8 - £10 for delivery I guess. Although I find this even btr HIS 6990 for £479.99 this week @ Overclockers inc vat and ex delivery.

Thats how it works

you have spys looking out for you and once they seen you buy something they contact there central headquarters to drop the price

So whenever a new product comes out i want YOU to buy it right away so i can get it for cheaper than you.
