Never saw it, still can't see it, damn good deal if someone got it!
I got real lucky on an open box Asus 5850 last week. $215 shipped. Should get here tomorrow, hopefully with no problems. *crosses fingers*

I decided it was not worth it to pay the extra cash for the immediate benefit.
ordered the XFX from amazon for 266. not sure how long it will take for them to get it back in stock for my order but at least I don't get charged until they ship.
...lmao.Well, my open box "5850" came today. I was all excited, opened the box, and took it out only to realize that they had somehow managed to send me an Asus 9600GSO instead. Nice one Newegg.
Dang, why so cheap, lol!
These 5800 series prices are getting out of hand..
right now ewiz is showing sapphire 5850 available, the catch is that it's $339. all I can confirm is that it let me add to cart.
has anyone put a 5850 in your cart at amazon while they were on backorder and been notified?
My guess would be sometime before Christmas. AMD and the card mfgs will want to grab the Christmas market.
Prices are probably going to go up even more as Christmas approaches. I would not be surprised one bit to see retailers selling these cards at the $499 price point by then.
