NewEgg lists MSI Radeon RX 6600 XT graphics card at an absurd $ 1100 dollars.
A MSI Radeon RX 6600 XT Gaming X graphics card was temporarily available for purchase at Newegg for the price of 1,100 US dollars. Following the official introduction of the graphics card, it is VERY unlikely that street prices will be THAT expensive.
AMD's new Radeon RX 6600 XT graphics card will officially go on sale on Wednesday. Newegg made an outrageously expensive offer. A comparable graphics card was recently made available by the US retailer Newegg, for which an extremely high price was demanded. The price for the exact model, an MSI Radeon RX 6600 XT Gaming X, was an unbelievable 1,100 US dollars (about 935 euros).
AMD actually plans to bring the Radeon RX 6600 XT to market for a considerably cheaper price than the current MSRP of $379. Most likely, the graphics cards will be available on the market in limited quantities, causing the actual price to be substantially higher than it was before they were removed.
The MSI RX 6600 XT Gaming probably won't cost $ 379, which is the official AMD suggested price for this model. MSI's Gaming X is the high-end variant with factory overclocking and an above-average cooling solution, which will definitely drive up the final price. It is not yet clear whether it will be close to $400 or $500. However, it definitely shouldn't cost $ 1100.

Newegg did, and will again, stoop that low!.... Same with Amazon!
The only reason they pulled the ad was because of people like us (Guru3D) complaining...
(this very article)
Any company that lets a scalper charge scalper prices while calling it a third party seller and yet they are supposed to be an "Upstanding Company" can kiss my ***...
If Amazon, Newegg, and eBay would stop supporting scalpers....prices would go down.
Edit: I should not have included eBay in that post, that is a legitimate bidding website.

Allowing 3rd parties to set there own prices that are scalping is one thing but Amazon and newegg have never listed there own stock at such prices. almost all those places list there own stock as sold out and msrp
But soon as Online sellers are require check serials number for items being sold buy 3rd parties, against "sold" database and are require to take them down when seeing said 3rd party seller selling at such prices it will stop. but it wont happen.

Amazon and newegg must be getting a kick back on total $$$
Best Buy will only sell at msrp here in the States and I hope they/their company grows bigger and bigger every year!... I will admit I used to not like them but now they are awesome.
