Don't know if this is true. But, it is presented as true:

...AMD’s fastest Ryzen CPUs, the 7 1800X, 1700X and 1700 are now available for pre-order with a February 28th launch date. The three CPUs have been listed by Belgian online retailer centralpoint.be and are up for grabs at €499, €389 and €319 respectively excluding VAT. Confirming their previously leaked $499, $389 and $319 US retail prices...
A poll indicated half of Ryzen buyers are going 8core/16thread -- and that there are many "waiting to buy". Hopefully, I'll get in on the first action -- and not be "closed out" in the first hours after release (before I can order). On the other hand, maybe they made enough $499 Ryzen for the first couple days of orders. We'll see.
