Will check it out.
Not a bad price - ZAR907, but, still more than GBP32, or GBP26...<smile>
The one I have here was bought from Communica shop in Centurion area, in
December last year, and only really included the board and the case,
but, the two ones have heard about the most this side are
pifactory.co.za, and, if remember correctly, pishop.co.za, but, I know
guys from house4hack in Centurion - some of the hardware hackers
mentioned that, among other things, run pi/arduino combination
workshops, have had guys bring in their own bulk lots from overseas, at
times.

Odd - unless they're doing something like IP address location tracking, just
went back to that page, and pulled the following line of text off it:
"£26.67"
Who knows, but, either way, both of those prices are way cheaper than we get
here in South Africa - the pi 3 I have here ended up costing just over
ZAR1200 including housing/case, which would currently equate to roundabout
GBP70, but anyway. And, that was when got hold of it under a form of
clearance sale special...LOL!

Hi mate,===========================================================
Not sure how you're seeing £26, it's showing up as £32 here.
Sadly brexit seems to have made everything more expensive... I didn't
realise that extended to PIs as well... I'm certain they were cheaper
when I bought one last!
Ah well. :-(
Cheers for the site though.
Take it easy,
Chris.
