Everyone knows that GPU prices are still very expensive so impossible to build a new PC.
However even second hand market, people are trying to sell used graphic card like GTX 1050 from $200 - $300.
Nothing wrong but however in my opinion unless the card is few years old and you want to sell $200 - $300
is reasonable.

Not to forget that GTX 1050 Ti can be brought brand new from SLS at around $300+. (No need to bundle with system.)
If the card have been asked for 5 years or more, asking for $200 onward for cards like GTX 1050 is too much.
Even GTX 9XX series I do notice people trying to sell more than $200, I recently sold GTX 950 under $100
and I did not take advantage of the current situation.

Used cards it is best to check the condition of the card such as:

- Age of the card.
- Graphic card oxidation
- Dust (Most of the time the GPU have to be cleaned before using it.)
- Any defects on the PCB like burn marks, damaged etc.
(*If you are not electrical trained/knowledge, you can just test the GPU.)

My point here is if you want to sell a used GPU for $200 example GTX9XX or GTX10XX series, is fine but
any defects on the card the value will be lower as well as the age of the card.
Aren't you the same techidiot who was trying to sell a 7 year old prebuilt for $300 a while back and then complaining when nobody bought it for that price? When your price high, you argue until the cows come home but when other people's price high you complain? Doesn't make sense now, does it?

Reported you for troublemaker.
Different topic, please do not divert.
If you argue back, I will report you again.
Stick to the topic, this is not about me or begging for cheap price.

Lets head over to the rtx thread instead to talk about nvidia where there is no reporting.

Everyone can put whatever price they want for whatever product they want to sell, if you want to sell 10 year old PC for $3000 also can. Just don't come and complain that people are not buying.

You can report me all you want, I'm not doing anything wrong by merely pointing out that you were on the other side of the fence not long ago.

I wouldn't waste the mods' time if I were you though, I think they're busy enough dealing with your anti-**** comments over at EDMW.

Report you yet again for discussing out of topic.
PS unhappiness with politics I am not the only one.
