Only thing I can do is get an equivalent card, post my receipt and unboxing and make these guys come back to reality. With international shipping actually a thing now, "Can't get it in South Africa" isn't an excuse to overcharge anymore.

These are second hand cards with YEARS on them, selling for the price of new cards?

Not to mention the majority have been used to mine, so the fans will most probably be shot.
Before the mining craze (after the last mining crash) I got my RX580 8GB for R1800, and that was considered expensive as some of them actually went for R1500, because the market was saturated.
Main thing is, the cards are worth what people are willing to pay for them, and only if the market is saturated by second-hand cards again, will we see fair pricing.
