    I’ve learned my lesson. I bought a graphics card and a monitor a few weeks ago. They were the kinds of desirable purchases that were never going to get discounted on Black Friday.

      Been watching a new GPU for the last week, waiting for my paycheck to come in

      35% discount, steepest in it’s history according to CCC, holds right until this morning, payday, now it’s a 5% discount

      Its not the usual scummy price shit but I’m def pissed off

      Idk, I bought a 4k 240 hz oled monitor for $300 off for black Friday, the lowest price it’s ever been. I think deals are still out there.

        Deals are there, many are not worth the wait and the real (good) deals are often less desireable items.

        At least from what i’ve seen myself.

        But i always hope the more expensive stuff gets a discount so i can get something better than what i would’ve bought otherwise.

        Right now there are a couple 4080 super’s discounted but it’s only like €80 difference for a model i would only buy if the difference was larger, so i almost ended up buying a non discounted 4080 super model.
