What's the buy price on a 6900 now $600-$650?

High end desktops are not a volume business. It's also possible they people aren't even looking for the 6900XT assuming it's more than the 6800XT.
This one fit the bill of being only 286mm long which I didn't realize was a limit I needed until this morning lol the case I'm using has a max limit of 300mm-ish, if I have the clu radiator set up in side format
If you're nervous about a card, clean up the fans (you should do this anyway) and replace the thermal pads/paste. If the card is working when it arrives, it's most likely going to continue to work. Performance will be the same as a new card. Silicone doesn't just degrade and neither do its electrical connection points. There's no moving parts on the PCB/chips themselves so there's nothing to wear out. As long as connections are intact, it will continue to function as expected. The only things that wear out are the fans themselves (easy repair) or the effectiveness of the thermal pads/paste (also an easy replacement). For instance, I have an AMD RX 480 that I bought used for $80 after the 2018 mining crash... It has been in my wife's hackintosh for 4 years now and still is working perfectly fine.
However, if you want to spend 2-3x what MSRP should be, by all means, but I thought this was SlickDeals?

Unfortunately (or fortunately for us!) manufacturing doesn't work that way. Chip manufacturers are contracted out to make chips ahead of time. GPUs aren't just made in just a few days or even weeks. The whole assembly and process is months in time. Chips are contracted out to a company like Samsung or TSMC, then the chips are cut out of the wafer and tested, then moves to the next process. The cards arriving at vendors are from chips that started their life in manufacturing as long as 3 or more months prior. Cancelling chips from being manufactured doesn't let the manufacturer (in this case, TSMC or Samsung) lose money because Nvidia and AMD has already paid for the number to be made. So it's either lose money paying for chips not made anyway, or lose partial at retail.
Unfortunately if I want to use the case I want to use I'm very limited on 68/6900 GPUs since I need one on the smaller side.
As for the decreases. I don't think these are going to go as low as folks think. We're already pretty close to normal prices for the top tier graphics cards. I remember buying almost 500 dollar for my Geforce 7900GTX way way way back in the day. I'd say yea we might see mid 600s before the year is over but all it takes is another mining surge to change all that.
