I just saw this listing on Ebay for a 9800XT with the Half Life 2 voucher for $350.00-new. sealed, retail package. Even though I have a 9800 Pro I bought one. I will either sell the Xt or my used Pro. You gotta figure that HL2 will retail for $50.00, so the purcahse price of the card is a cool $300.00. Not cheap.....but still $200.00 less than retail.
The list says that he has 45 cards available. Just thought someone else might be interested. Here are the head details of the listing.

Eh, I don't see any reason to pay $150 more for the 10% performance increase you get going from a Pro to an XT. You can even mod a pro up to an XT if you have the guts to do it and a little bit of know-how since the only difference between the 2 is the clockrate.

I still say that the 9800 Pro is the best bang for the buck, 2nd fastest card only by a small margin and just $200 nowadays.

But if money is no object..hell, that is a pretty good deal.
