    It's not vapourware at all, but you will have to stray to OcUK to get one, and their prices are at Scan's equally ludicrous level (though of course many can get free delivery with Scan, it's a bit redundant without stock).

    Thumbs to up Ebuyer for setting initial prices at a reasonable level, with far less price-gouging than the other supposed leading etailers.

    This is the point I made in one of the 4870X2 threads in the scan scare forum.

    One of the can guys took the screenie out of the ebuyer prices. Sounds like unfriendly competition to me.

    On a positive note. If anyone in the Uk wants one tomorrow, OcUK has them IN STOCK!

    (Do note, OcUK has priced them for being in stock accordingly). But nice one ebuyer for actually getting the prices right!

    (At this rate I may go back to ebuyer, I vowed I never would after an RMA went sour, but I have countless problems with Scan products, something makes me think they need to have a word with their supplier, stuff that looks used, damaged, more faulty stuff than I ever had with Ebuyer...hmmm....)
