Radeon 9800 Pro price increase

[WeZona]

I was thinking about getting a Radeon 9800 Pro 256mb for my new computer. Last time I checked, which I think was yesterday, it was going for $227. I looked today, and the price is $265.99. WTF???

Is this online somewhere? Or at a retail store? 'Cause $40 is quite an increase for a day.

ive been looking at the prices of videocards every week now and the 9800pro 256mb has been at around $260 for a few months now(at www.newegg.com anyways).

Maybe I was mistaken

Why would you buy one anyway ? For 270 I'd be looking for a 6800....
