Comparing prices I see we still have lot of stuff that is cheaper. Or better to say WAS 😀 Seems like this source has dried up.
Honestly still cheaper than many US items or Australian items also many items neither of the other two seem to have like obscure hardware (Motherboards, GPUs and soundcards) that were never released in the west in huge quantities. I found a guy from Russia selling old Soviet military computer tech, stuff I had never seen before, I'm guessing a lot of it was so old that no one really cares if its sold or not.
But damn if I had the money I would have bought a few of the old wire memory cubes.
