still, a decent price for them though

Yea, I wasn't going to mention that because it's still showing on price watch.

However, NCIXUS has stock of 3870's as well and cheaper!

-no, they don't say "backordered" although out of stock would have been prefered
-it does read 2-5 day shipping and Avail says "YES"
-After further review it appears they will be in stock early next week. Lets hope that the prices hold.

impressive deals at ncix, but real inventories would be nice.

**Syn.** · 11-23-2007, 04:08 AM

all UK stores have run out of stock. Mine is on back-order awaiting restock.

How are you able to see how many that they have left?

There are plenty of 3850's in stock at the egg and it has pretty much been that way since release. No such luck with the 3870s, indeed there seem to have been a lot fewer shipments of those than 8800GTs which have been coming in and selling out on a regular basis.

You can find out how much of something the 'egg has in stock if there is no limit on the orders you can place on the item. You just add the item to your cart, put in 100 for the quantity (that is generally the max order quantity) and then just hit the update quantity button. If it is under 100 it will update the number to how many they have left in stock. If there are over 100 in stock it will leave it at 100. If there is a limit on how many you can order it will just give you that limit (assuming that the limit is less than how many are left in stock).

Here is an example:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814131071

I'm showing 31 left at the moment.

**NapalmV5** · 11-23-2007, 08:44 AM

anyone got anything besides the card from newegg?

the game included is that just an ncix thing?

**Kayin** · 11-23-2007, 09:25 AM

Ordered HIS 3850, should be here next week.

One down, two more slots to fill...

Which is why I canceled my first order from NCIX and got the 3870 I have from the egg when they first had them in stock. Would like to get a second but only place I can find that has them in stock is ZZF and at $289 I'll just wait a bit.

**tbone8ty** · 11-23-2007, 04:38 PM

damn they are $269 now at newegg.

must have increased the price since they are popular. well that sucks i was gonna buy one, now im not, the 8800gt looks better at this price level

**zerazax** · 11-23-2007, 04:40 PM

Newegg price gouging? Shocker!

3850s seem to be selling well, they restocked them earlier and now they're back close to sold-out levels

**Bootup05** · 11-23-2007, 05:04 PM

In same way people buying Bugatti Veyron are idiots, all Ferrari owners are idiots and so on. I think it's not right to call anyone that way

. If someone has more money and want to spend it, it's his business ...

Try to be more polite on public forum

I finally saw two ferrari's in person a few days ago, and I was not impressed

The Aston Martins on the other hand, are perfect in person, really really amazing cars...

Bugatti Veyron costs more than a million £ to make and they sell it at £875,000. So they are actually selling at bargain price and any person buying that car is in no way an idiot for doing it.

Anyway i bought 3870 at higher price because i been waiting a year to upgrade my PC with a DX10 graphics card. Even with the prices being higher then what they should be the card was still £30 cheaper then 8800GT which comes with crappy drivers but with bit better performance. Price gauged or not i wanted that card because i got to play Gears Of War, Crysis, Assisin's Creed, Bioshock etc.

**DangeR!** · 11-25-2007, 01:40 PM

3870, 3870, wherefore art thou 3870.

I really want to buy 2 of these in the UK, but can't find them anywhere.

£145 max
