Is this pricing correct?

I was on PC Part Picker doing some system build things and I came across this. The i7-4770K is more expensive than both the 4790K and the 6700K. What is going on?  Also I checked the base prices. Only the 4790K has a $10 promotion which still makes this the cheapest.

OFF TOPIC: I suggest every poll from now on to have "**CK EA" option instead of "Other"

Very common when an item gets updated versions, this one being 2 updates to be lower in stock, giving it a higher price

theres such thing as supply and demand, its nolonger being made so the supply is low and the demand is higher then the supply so the price is raised

Ah so its like High Demand, Low Supply = Higher Prices

Normally it's incentive to buy the newer items since the 4770/4790 can run on the same mobo

Very bottom 4770K $400

NVM thought he said the 4790k is more expensive. No its not a pricing error its the 4770k going out of stock where its cheap.

Thats that. If you need to get in touch chances are you can find someone that knows me that can get in touch.
