You left off who the shipper/seller is...  Is this one of those people who purchased up the initial stock and is reselling?

That is a screenshot from the Newegg app. I had set up an alert for in stock because I missed the first round by seconds. Got that in stock alert, and I am not going to buy at that price.

Still, who does it say is the shipper/seller?  Newegg hosts a lot of third party shipper/sellers these days as well...

Pricing is definitely sucky, but I have a feeling that this is more Newegg than AMD as they have a Sapphire Vega 64 listed at 689.99 and an MSI Vega 64 listed at 719.99. (Of course with the $129.99 value in games included).

Yeah, the games added is a joke. I hate that they do that. If I wanted those games I would already have them. Sure there are some people that will want them but we all know how this works. They sell cards with these game codes banking on you not using them. And on top of that, a lot of times they aren't Steam codes. I am just not going to install multiple game clients on my computer. Not interested at all.

Reminder, folks. Blaming AMD for retailer pricing is a recipe for disaster.

 

Also, here's the Canadian Peso version.

I didn't blame either the dealer or AMD. Just posted the price.

Right, though I didn't directly aim that at you. My apologies.

No, in CAD they're 900. That's as much as a 1080 ti.

Exactly. You would have to be out of your mind to pay that price and not get the 1080Ti. Only reason I am not getting an Nvidia card is that I have two FreeSync monitors. I am just going to have to wait a while. When I can find one for around $450ish I'll go for it. But I know I am going to have to wait and keep an eye out for a deal.
