This place has the 6800 Ultras and X800 XTs in stock, and they have more X800 XTs, but they want about $750.00 for the XT and $615.00 for the eVGA 6800 Ultra.

This is the same card I sold for $1400.00 about a month ago. Thought some people might want to know. Compared to $750.00 for the XT the $615.00 price seems almost reasonable. I'm going to buy one so I can do some testing.:D

Paying over MSRP is for dummies. ;)

And people who don't want to wait.

I was going to add that...

I don't think we will have to wait too much longer. I've already been waiting since June 16th for my x800xt from gayway :rolleyes:

Well they are available now, so that's a good sign. Now the prices need to deflate a bit.

It doesn't say "out of stock" here and at a decent price.. I would call first though.

That's a great find. Looks like a decent store too! Has anybody ever dealt with these guys? Are they good?

My friend bought an A64 from them about 3 weeks ago.. He ordered a Clawhammer but received a Newcastle. Shipping took about 3-4 days after the order was processed.

ps - when he went back to the site, they had changed the description to read "Newcastle".. So he might have just ordered right before they were going to change.

Edit:

pps - he called them about it and they said they would give him a full refund.. so i guess it souds like a decent place.

Let me know how it goes.. I may just cancel my order from gateway and get one here.
