Asus R9 280 DirectCU II priced and dated for South Africa

Oh how I wish I had R5k to waste... just for once I'd like to buy a new high end card.
Instead I just go second hand mid range...
 
I was due an upgrade and recently bought the Asus R9 290X DirectCU II OC for around 5,300 SEK (around R9,000). I see the same model (R9290X-DC2OC-4GD5) is going on Takealot for R9,999. Yeouch!

5,300 SEK gets you about as far in Sweden as R5,300 does in ZA. Just saying. Hence the "yeouch!"
 
Expensive considering you can get a MSI Radeon R9 280X 3GB 384bit GDDR5 Overclocked for around R5200, but that's only if you can find stock :p
