Does anyone know of any SA retailers/suppliers that currently have stock of Raspberry Pi 3/4 boards?

I can't seem to find any stock in SA at the moment. Sites like RS Online have these on back order for 2023 only, otherwise it just shows as out of stock on every other site I checked.
 
 
Been unavailable for most of the year. I've heard that Raspberry Pi prioritises large commercial wholesale orders of minimum 2000 units which are used in embedded products/manufacturing. So very little gets to the consumer market right now. I know of someone who sold their Pi 4 for R15k to someone who desperately needed it!
 
I have one, and I do use it, but not often.
I wonder if I should sell it because i am looking to get a nuc.
 
I had the same issue been waiting Months for some light to upgrade my Pi2 to the latest version.

So got me thinking of building a celeron based machine just for running my linux projects or docker containers.

The cheapest build I could get was about R3500 to maybe replace my Raspberry Pi and maybe setup as dedicated Plex Server and some Linux Projects like Adguard.

If you are still interested in a small form factor Pc.

I have a 6th gen i5 NUC with 16Gb ram and 128Gb ssd that I can sell to you?
 
I am selling my PI4 - 8GB if anyone is interested.
 
The price of these things shot up to like wtf!!!
