I'm confused.

We only have the vaguest idea of how these cards perform, and a guess on how cool and efficient, and are only able to estimate the price at anywhere between 400 and 800 pounds, give or take a hundred squid..

and people are leaving deposits :eek:

That's...errr.. hardcore.

8'000 of these in total, yes? how many of those 8'000 do you have?

We can't say, just a few hundred.

To confirm, we've sold a little over 100 units.

We have plenty of BF4 editions spare!

We have also ordered from manufacturers 100's of the regular 290X and 290 as well. :)

You realise of course McGibbo that you are the most hated man on this forum right now :p

YOU know how these 'bad boys' perform, and obviously YOU know how much they will retail for..and being a good businessman probably have a good idea what will happen to the prices of the 780 and maybe even the 290 given a few weeks of sales..

YOU know all of this.

I hate you.

It's 100% refundable.

If you cannot afford a £99 refundable deposit you cannot afford the retail card at RRP either.

Like it or lump it.

Will the BF4 Package include Premium or not?

This!

Some competitors are charging £1000, now that is bad conduct in my view when they full well know it won't be that much, but again its probably because they are only getting like five units. :D

Thanks for that wonderful insight. Unfortunately RRP is a mystery, let alone if there's the usual price gouging at launch.

It's totally pointless complication. I'd be very interested in buying but I'm not going to lend an etailer £100 for a few weeks on the promise of a card I know little about, least of all the actual price. How do you know they'll be competitive? If they're not you'll have to go to the hassle of calling up for a refund and waiting the usual 5+ days for your money back.
