*Update* for those of you who own amd 5xxx cards, I just sold my 2 5870s for 525.00! Unload them sooner than later to the bitcoiners if you want some cash out of them!
Suckers....
Hehe, while that is quite a lot for a 5870, it's relative. If nothing else changes, and the person you sold them to are adding them to an already existing computer, those cards will pay for themselves in 14 days and then start making profit.
Of course, things will change. The difficulty will change. And the exchange rate will most likely change. But I bet the person who bought those cards does just fine, even paying such a large amount, and is soon making money off of his purchase.
I'm happy I was buying 5870s for less than $175. I guess I was ahead of the mad rush.
