I paid $279 for mine back in early March so I definitely feel I got my money's worth. Plus almost any of them can overclock near or at least 14 Gbps. I do agree though that having three cards all in the $200-$300 price range is too crowded. This card should basically end the production of the other two.
Man if I were a 1660Ti owner I would not be too happy right about now...

While my 1660Ti wasn't in service long, I'm in the same position as jbscotchman. These cards are only slightly faster than a stock 1660Ti, and by "slightly", I mean less than 5% faster in most cases according to the few game charts I flipped through. That still leaves these cards on par or slightly slower than my MSI GTX1660Ti Ventus XS.

The market doesn´t stop, something better will always appear at the same or cheaper price.
Look what also happened to the $700 Radeon VII, 5 months later the RX 5700XT comes out with almost the same performance for $250 less.
That's different. This is literally the same chip as the 1660, just with better memory. The original 1660 and Ti variants just seem like beta tested hardware. But also remember, the Radeon VII remains its own product for the high end and prosumer, while the 5700XT is tiered for gaming only with half the vram and no FP64
