Only seen it in one store here, and it's fooking expensive.

85405 krones, one dollar is 79 krones, which makes $1100!!

This is madness .

4850 only costs $316 though, I'm definately going ATi in my next build.

79 krones to a dollar?!

edit - it's the exact same price in Norway! (well, 1128 USD)

Send me the money to pay for shipping (Will have to calculate it) and the card on Newegg, you send me the cash(or PayPal transaction), and Ill ship it to you.

Problem solved.

I suspect that Import Tax would be very heavy, otherwise everyone would be ordering from ... elsewhere!

Nah he just has to declare it a gift. There'll be very little to pay then.

Edit - JM beat me to it.

And as if that's not enough, hardware has a special "luxury tax", dunno how big it its, but it adds even more to it.
