Sadly true . We are kind of on another planet when it comes to hardware pricing.

Funny thing about that is it's only true when the rates go down... When they go up it takes effect here immediately.

TBH it makes more sense to say it's "minimum scalping retail price" because anything over is scalping?

noob question, but why are the prices for gpu falling?
Crypto craze especially mining is now for bigger fishes.
Intel is going to launch its GPU soon.
Plus the so called chip shortage drama is over.

At launch, primeabgb had a 6500XT model for around 18k for some time. But honestly, for pre-2021 pricing, it shouldn't even be 15k as 1650S is still a superior option but bad price.

Boi these prices are crashing hard. If anyone's wondering why it's because of 3 things...
- Testnet Kiln is live for ETH POS and is on track to be scheduled by end of Q2 2022.
- Even if ETH POS doesn't get merged on the mainnet a huge difficulty bomb is coming in the same time which will make mining pointless on GPUs
- Due to the above reasons large mining institutions have stopped bulk buying the GPUs now so there's a influx of surplus stock for gamers.
There was no stock problem before but the stock that was shipped to the countries/importers was directly re-shipped to these large mining institutions who were buying in bulk.

From what I've heard easyshoppi is shady, af.
Many complaints of defective products. Used items being sold as new. And a few allegations of fraud too.
I'd suggest extreme caution.

Stay put and Asus 3070Ti TUF deals seems to be genuine as I have heard it is readily available for 76-79 with multiple sellers now due to huge stock.
Stay put and don't buy GPUs right now, let the pricing bleed more.

I bet that all the vendors / distributors are like "Hold the Door... Holddoor... HODOR.. " right now, against the floodgates of abundant and cheap GPUs.
I can't speak for them but i have bought a GPU from there and received it in New condition. I even checked serial for warranty in Asus website so they're pretty genuine from my experience.
Another seller in FB for the same price.
I also saw 3060 tuf for 46k in vedant computers

Asus dropping prices of 3060, 3070Ti.
Wait for a few more days and let others follow too which will definitely be lower than Asus pricing
Just few more weeks left before normalized pricing and happy gamers time!
