X99 mobo has gone down a lot as of late. Even in Canada, I can source one for 200 CAD, sometimes even as low as 180.

Used to cost at least 255 CAD.

I always try to go for the later steppings but they usually charge you more for those. I think it's worth it though. They usually have better m/b compatibility, fewer bugs and in my very limited experience tend to run cooler. QS (quality control samples) rather than ES is the way to go but you don't see those very often.
