Newegg had them in stock but sold out.
Newegg.com - 6990
$717-$753

Yikes, they still had the Sapphire's in stock when I checked early this morning, bout 5 or 6 hours ago.

There are some ballers out there. $700 is personally too much for me to spend again on a video card.
I spent $2500 on a video card in 1993 for my Amiga 3000, and I had to spend another $800 on a 340MB SCSI hard drive and 8 more megs of Ram to support the video card and apps that went with it. It was a Newtek Video Toaster 4000 card.

here is the Promo video for the Toaster,
