In lew of the buy.com cancellation on my order I am left with out a card to fill my empty void. So I want to know should I buy a GTX 260 now or is there any indication of these cards' prices dropping?

They will always drop, but I doubt we'll see another buy.com-like deal any time soon. I'd go with a 280 since those prices are almost in line with the 260 now.
 
Out of curiosity, what did you do with your old card?

Seems awkward to pounce on [what appeared to be] a pricing error, and then ditch your current card before the new one even ships.

To answer your question, the 4870X2 is down to $369 temporarily (Check the HotDeals section) and the 285 around $350.

nothing, i still have it, Just to make it clear what I meant was that I don't have a card that can fill the empty void that is the frame rate drops and freezing in the games I play now.
