    Incredible is weird with their pricing. Some things are reasonably priced, but some things are ridiculous. The other day I wanted to get a Flash Stick, but I didn't want to order from Rectron for just one little flash stick (about R75 incl VAT for an 8GB one), so I stopped off at Incredible, and I think theirs were something like R170 for a 4GB one... I also remember at one stage looking for a network cable, and it was a couple hundred bucks, when I can sommer make my own one for maybe R20. I think their markup on accessories and stuff is super high.

    Yeah laptops, hdd's, cameras and monitors are generally more or less well priced. Other things I would far rather go anywhere else.
    contact me if you are in Cape Town and looking for PC Hardware at very competitive pricing. We also do web and graphic design.

    its some times old stock that was never sold and still reflects the price that it was booked into the store a few years back

    Its like my clan mate bought a 6870 asus GPU from them for R1999 and te 5770 was R1700

    now the 6870 is basically 2 x 5770`s

    so the 5770 is a rip of but the 6870 had a price that you will struggle to find now any where else .
    if you buy from IC wait for the gaminginc specials to start again,
