> European retailers

Half of the ones you have listed are UK retailers.

I haven't checked the others but computeruniverse.net has various RX 5000 series GPUs in stock. So does mindfactory.de at the moment.

The new RX 6000 serious GPUs have been selling out quickly but they were just released this/last month and new stock does keep popping up.

They list 5600XT, card slower than Nvidia 4 year old 1070, at 350 Euro. 220 Euro for a 5500, slower than 4 year old 1060, slower than $160 MSRP 1650s. But wait, there are no 1650s in stock, and no 1060, and no 1070. There is 1660 Ti however, $280 MSRP, listed at 410 Euro .... thats almost twice the msrp for a 2 year old product.

The only products they havent run out of are listed at 2x the markup.
