Remember when 70 class cards like the GTX 970 launched ~$350? Calling $500 for the lower end one quite attractive is laughable

There will be no competitive pricing from AMD or Nvidia unless they want to take a loss because tariffs.

There should be - non-US (and USA plus US tariffs). (But, as to GPUs, AMD never fails to miss an opportunity.)

There's zero point getting these cards unless you can't get anything else. It's priced as badly as Nvidia when you take performance level into consideration.Hopefully these prices are wrong.

In fact, the prices are wrong - they are ~$100 higher than feared;) Told you, AMD never fails to miss an opportunity.
