WTH? Cheapest dual slot 3870 is $240+?!

[batmang]

Just a week ago I paid $209 SHIPPED for a Sapphire 3870 512 that is dual slotted. I was looking to purchase a second dual slotted 3870.... but no one has them for less than $240 now?!

What gives!?

Should have bought two while you had the chance at $209

there is a 7-21 business day wait right now but sometimes it comes down before that.

CNY is not helping with prices right now either. The halt in mfg. has tightened up supply. Factor in shipping time, and hopefully in 3-4 wks pricing and availability will be a lot better.

I've heard reports that they're starting to ship cards that people ordered two weeks ago, so they're good on getting it to you for that price.

Ya I was trying to say sometimes it ships sooner even though it says 7-21 days.
