They will be soon EOL, grab them wile you can.

Ummm... I'm not desperate. Simply said, I know ignoring sunk costs is sometimes a good practice but there's no way I can pay $450+ for the same blade I bought for $230 a few weeks ago, not with better stuff around the corner. EOL should drive the pricing down, the lack of sophistication in the secondary equipment market is demonstrated by the bidding up of these components, will just need to wait until the weak hands shake out.

So I bought my blades for $230 and $300, picked up a backplane for $114 and the plan was I could expand this setup. Now seeing the shortage and pricing on ASIC blades it's clearly not a cost-efficient plan to expand unless there is a surpluss and depression in pricing. Anyone know if these Blades are still in production? The demand is there but it seems like there's a shortage.

In a way it makes sense for post-release equipment pricing to follow BTC, but with the rising difficulty it's a bit unreasonable where these blades are at right now.
