Price Surge on GPU's - Apparently this is a sale.

[casinocoin]

I have been mining since early Nov, Starting with bitcoin and then moving onto litecoin and some alts to trade for BTC/LTC

When i started my rig ended up getting 3 r9 280x MSI for roughly ~1000 a little less.
Tigerdirect has just sent out their "sale" flyer through e-mail and the price of the same GPU is now ~449.99 (thats with $54 off..)

The point and question at hand is anyone actually purchasing at these prices..?
Wanted to upgrade to 6 cards from the current 4 I have(bought one with BTC) but doesn't look like ill be doing that anytime soon.

They love to fuck us here with prices, it's about an hour and half hop to the border!
I was in the states last weekend, and couldn't find any 280's (mind you I was in Detroit)

Newegg just dropped their prices to sub $350 as well.

Prices are down big time recently.

They'll continue to fall as the market is flooded with used equipment.

ASIC's are just around the corner.
