    Hi Joe,<br>
    <br>
    The price listed on the Minnowboard website for the Max is the
    manufacturer's suggested retail price.  Its not the official price
    you will pay for a Max where ever you buy from.  Mouser only seem to
    be charging $6 more then this, I've ordered one without any
    hesitation, just waiting for it to arrive now :)<br>
    <br>
    Kind Regards,<br>
    Cameron Andrews<br>

        <div>Hi, I have a quick question about the pricing, hopefully
          someone can answer…<br>
          Why are the authorized distributors selling these boards for
          higher-than-official price?<br>
          Minnowboard.org still shows $139 for dual-core and if I recall
          correctly, when the MAX was first announced, dual-core version
          was advertised for $129...
