INR depreciation.

Taiwan floods?
Inflation?
Corruption?

Btw, this is not a news, so needs to move in chit-chat section.

PS: Sam, need your help! Pls Check PM!

Yes, you have guess it right.
Barring the past 2-3 months, you have seen that prices of every computer peripherals tend to decrease all the time.
Wait for at least 3-4 months more & then see what happens. :unsure:

I was just going to assemble my pc by the end of durga puja, the vendor asked me to wait for some days as prices had suddenly increased and till now it shows no sign of fall in price.

Any one any idea? When are the prices going to fall?

Dont think it will fall any sooner

This is a real sad news. Hope prices fall in spring and summer.

Price of doller has came down 1.5-2 Rs in few days, i hope it continues.
