    Thumbs down Sapphire 4890 Turbo Edition price increased

    I just went to purchase two GFX cards from SCAN and wanted the Sapphire 1GB Turbo Edition which was priced yesterday at £202.00 and now the price has risen to £211.00. Is there any reason why the price has gone up instead of dropping in price? Or is the supply and demand for this product increased and they have decided to increase the pride to slow down supply and demand. Either way I'm still getting two of them regardkess of the price.

    It's probably gone up in price due to the exchange rate.

    Price's change based on Scan's buying price from their suppliers we're told. That's probably why it's changed. It always happens so might as well get used to it.

    Actually that makes a lot of sense, I never thought about the buying price, thanks for the reply both of you were helpful.
