There's a reason some guys here are starting to thin out their farms and sell gpus
Was just looking at my local retailers website and while there is stock - the dang prices...
I recognize that website
Check out the link on the product that says "see store for BYO discounts on this product"
Microcenter has held to MSRP on gpus for a while now. You just had to be there when they put the gpu on the shelf for the week to get any, resulting in them constantly not having any stock. I think this now pricing on the cards is akin to what newegg is doing now with the 'free monitor' when you buy this product. Microcenter says 'see store manager for best price on this product'. I think that a visit to your store could result in a price quite a bit under what is advertised.
I've talked to my local store about this discount. They wouldn't even discuss it unless I was purchasing 5 core components (mobo/cpu/ram/psu/ssd) or 4 core components plus monitor.
I even threw out the idea of buying two new monitors and a new gpu or two to upgrade my personal setup to 1440p and they said it didn't qualify currently.
I don't fully blame them. I understand the demand and why they are focusing the discount to people who are wanting to do a new build. The prices in general are just hard to watch sometimes.
Oh noooo, you showed proof that a gtx 1080 ti is being sold for $1500, the idiots here will say that is a lie even if you showed proof, they will say here that they can get them for $650 a piece hehe, rx 580 is being sold for $800 and they will say they can get them for $200 hehe. Trolls are such varan creatures hehe
The prices are real. Of course, it's not just gpus. I was looking for another ledger the other day and the only authorized retailers that had stock were selling $200+
