Try being in New Zealand. Even after exchange rate it's $1178 USD.... I could buy one and ship it for way less :((((

Do you know also suxs about being in New Zealand is that the aftermarket coolers from Asus, gigabyte and the other will cost another $100. We are seriously getting ripped off.

Yeah its total crap. I used to work with a retail store and the markup he had was soooo small & even then it wasn't as competitive.

Well I guess it's a good thing that Memory Express price matches and you save 25% of the difference =P

 

If I plan to buy one I can only hope they keep it at this price. I'd save $47 price matching it to newegg's $599 and only having to pay $552.49 ;)
