TomliginyuNot at all necessary to provide a link; just stop buying them at inflated prices. Evidently, people are too impatient to wait, which in turn maintains the price or drives it up further, and 'marketplaces' like MassDrop plead to that impatience and greed, both on their side and the buyers', offering the "lesser of two evils." Just glad I got mine before GPUs were considered a commodity instead of a device to enjoy gaming or use for workstations requiring higher-end graphical processing.
MrGWrightWhile thoughtfully written, it makes no difference if the price is "competitive" if it's a relative scale. Either pay what the manufacturer suggests or wait until you can get one at that price. Turn down your graphics, wait an extra 5 minutes for that render to finish, or whatever... It's not the end of the world if you don't have THE newest card. Purchasing these at such an inflated price only indicates to both retailer and manufacturer that people are dumb enough to spend that much. I don't have an answer to the crap that's happening with the market, but it sucks that people who just want to game or WORK can't do so without getting fisted.
Tex-ArozziIt got pulled, hacked accounts and was the same ones on wish that all got pulled. Ill just go to my local Microcenter and get me a graphics card
