French enthusiasts are particularly keen on this model, but local availability has been sporadic at best. When cards do appear in European retail shops, the markup is often high enough to make one consider a very expensive career change. Checking out us trends shows that the Founders Edition specifically remains a top-tier target for international buyers looking for that sleek, industrial design that only NVIDIA provides directly.

Why the US market remains the tech gold mine

The price difference between US retailers and French outlets is the main reason for the current cross-border shopping surge. Even with currency fluctuations in 2026, the US MSRP for the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Founders Edition is consistently lower than the retail prices found in Paris or Lyon. This price gap is fueled by lower initial overheads and high competition among US-based tech giants.

If you want to shop us store options like Best Buy or Newegg, you are looking at a significantly more attractive base price. However, getting that card from a US shelf to your desk in France requires a bit of strategy.

The BuyForMe solution for French shoppers

The process of buying high-demand tech can be frustrating. A major problem for shoppers in France is that many US stores, such as the official NVIDIA store, Best Buy, or even Apple and Sephora, often have strict security protocols. These stores frequently block international credit cards or automatically decline orders that are being sent to known package forwarding addresses.

The solution to this digital barrier is the comGateway BuyForMe service. With this assisted purchase option, we buy the item on your behalf using a US domestic credit card. This bypasses the common security triggers that lead to cancelled orders. For a high-stakes item like the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Founders Edition, using BuyForMe is the safest way to guarantee your order actually gets processed and shipped to our warehouse. Check our guide on Read more: French credit cards vs US store security: Buying the RTX 5070 Ti Founders Edition for more details on this process.

Getting your GPU from the US to France

Once your card arrives at our warehouse, the next step is the journey across the Atlantic. Using a freight forwarder allows you to consolidate your packages or ship them individually to France. To get a clear idea of what the total cost will be, it is wise to use a shipping calculator. This tool helps you account for the weight and dimensions of the Founders Edition box, which is notoriously sturdy and slightly heavy.

The how it works section on our site provides a step-by-step guide for those new to international shipping. It ensures you know exactly where your package is from the moment it leaves the US warehouse until it arrives at your door in France.

Import duties and shipping rules

Shipping electronics to France involves a few logistical considerations, primarily regarding import tax and VAT. In 2026, French customs regulations require a clear declaration of the item's value. Being aware of the import duties beforehand prevents any surprises when the delivery driver arrives.

Additionally, it is important to review the prohibited items list. While graphics cards are generally safe to ship, there are specific regulations regarding batteries or certain restricted goods that might be bundled with tech products. Ensuring your NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Founders Edition complies with all shipping rules is essential for a smooth delivery. By using a tax-free us address provided by comGateway, you can at least ensure that you aren't paying US sales tax on top of your French import costs.
