In this post I am going to talk about fair pricing. "Fair pricing" means that you aren't paying too much for a product. Remember that if you are reading this a month or more from now, this guide would be nearly useless, but read through anyway, the important stuff comes next.
Online retailers usually price their goods less than brick-and-mortar stores, but shipping may make ordering online a waste of time. Also think about tax where applicable. Here is an idea of what I'm on about:
PNY GeForce GTS250 1GB
Newegg.com: ($150 before $20 MIR , FREE CoD5, $7.59 3DAY shipping = $157.59 + TAX where required before value of CoD5 and $20 MIR) $157.59-$40-$20= ~$97.59 considering you were going to sell the CoD5 and do the MIR!
BestBuy.com ($190+$6 Standard shipping = $196+TAX where required)
$~97.59 or $~196, your choice!
Fair rates: (online) (non OC, stock)
nVidia:
9400GT ~ $40
9500GT ~ $50
9600GT ~ $70
9800GT ~ $95
GTS250 ~ $110
GTX260c216 ~ $160
GTX275 ~ $200
GTX285 ~ $300
GTX295 ~ $510
ATi

4550 ~ $45
4650 ~ $50
4670 ~ $70
