The best deal I've seen for a GTX 280, no less the factory SCC model (Super Super Clocked). You need an eBay/paypal account.
1 - sign up for a live.com account
2 - sign up for the live search cashback program which gives you 25% cashback on certain eBay purchases with paypal.
3 - sign into live.com and type in "GeForce"
4 - click on the eBay sponsored link at the top of the results
5 - search for "EVGA 280 scc" and click on the one for $434.99 sold by "multiwavevideo" or "techtreasure"...both of whom are really www.mwave.com and send you an mwave.com invoice for the rebate.
6 - click buy it now, it breaks down like this:
$434.99 - 25% = $326.25
$326.25 - $30 rebate = $296.25
$296.25 + 10.99 ship = $307.24 after Live! cashback and rebate.
Free FarCry 2 link is with the rebate link above.
This card is $404+ shipping at newegg after a $30 rebate.
This method can be used on many different items, but the 25% really knocks a lot off on the high priced items (gtx280, 4870 x2). I also noticed the MSI 4870 1gb for $205 shipped after rebate/cashback, which is about $70 cheaper than Newegg right now.
