The RX 470/570 GPUs are still going down in price on eBay you can get some for $80-90USD excl shipping right now.
It's pretty bad considering the older R9 280X are going for only $20 less.
If you think ETH might go up in the future, it's a great time to stock up on these GPUs. Some still have warranty even and I don't think they will depreciate any further than now.

damn Ill take some 470s then
Dont care about the rest much. Pay the lowest amount in gear, in power, you most likely wont lose. Around me they still go higher than that though, 225 maybbeeee (cad). 1080 : 400$ cad roughly from what i can tell. so 300usd

The resale value of GTX 10 series video cards has plummeted in the last week or two, but I think that's due to the impending release of the next series from NVIDIA (probably will be announced at the end of the month, whether a paper launch or a real physical launch remains to be seen).
There are only rumors about the upcoming 2 different variants in the market. Nvidia Ampere and Turing. Allan Turing is a cryptanalyst so it would be easy to speculate that they are going to create two different cards in two different markets. Overtime, the 2nd hand GTX 10 series will flood in the market and for sure, like cryptocurrency, will be extreme volatile in price. I'm projecting the value of 1070's to fall below $250 given the current situation in the buy/sell community.True, true. Launch price of the 11 series may be higher than people think to keep those 10 series from dropping too low.

In my countryside, Most of the techgroup buy and sell is flooded by GTX 10 series. The funny thing is, almost no one is buying it. Even i myself find it hard to sell my darn 1070's that has been up for almost 2 months now. There's a massive competition now in Selling 2nd hand GPU's in the market.
I found mining rig with 6x gtx 1060 3gb for 1000$.
But even at that price, by current profitability it would take me 2 year for ROI.

Probably a little bit less than 2 years if you try to mine Musicoin, ETP or any other coin still mineable with that card. As for the Equihash Zcash algorithm let me tell you my stats, 6 such cards are making me a miserable 0.38-0.40 mBTC daily and the energy cost is higher than the profit for the whole rig unfortunately.
Even at 1000 dollars is not worth it for a mining rig.

So the prediction that "Nvidia GPUs hold their value better than AMD" is basically false...
It's false cause only ethash which is, still measly profitable and amd cards hold the cost performance advantage, if equihash was the survivor asic algo then nvidia would be holding that advantage. It's a no brainer.
Not much of anything on CL here. Some 1050's and 1060's. $1400 for a 5X 1060 rig. $2600 for a 6X 1070 Zotac Mini rig. $1500 for a 3X 1070 rig. $800 for a lone 1080ti ... Lol. A few people asking way to much for older hardware that I wouldn't give anything for.
UPDATE:
Basically I am noticing many GPUs, PSUs, entire rigs, ASICs finally popping up everywhere on Craigslist and eBay.
It seems the loss for the RX gpus isn't as bad. I think they are going for around $150 USD and retail was like $200 USD if you bought during MSRP. This is for the low end RX 470 4GB models. The 480 8GB is usually $50-75 more.
I think the biggest loser is the 1080Ti which is going for as low as $500 USD and these retailed a few months back for what? $850 USD if I recall correctly.

Well looks like on eBay there are a few low end RX 470 4GB that went for about $130-$140 USD per GPU.
This is actually the first time I am noticing these GPUs being sold for less than their original MSRP.

Surprised to see this thread bumped up. Almost forgot I created it last year.
It's funny how it was almost a year later for mining profitability to drastically reduce to the point where we see loads amounts of GPUs all over Craiglists and eBay.
I also wonder too if we will ever get a mining boom again. Even if the ETH and BTC prices finally start going back up, the difficulties are just crazy high to go back to the $5/day/RX 470 profit levels.
In bearish market they are less coins profitable to mine so diff is higher, when prices are going up more coins is profitable and diff is going down a bit or stay the same level. When they are extreamly high profits per card many ppl start buying GPUs and diff start rising again It's funny how it was almost a year later for mining profitability to drastically reduce to the point where we see loads amounts of GPUs all over Craiglists and eBay.

So it's normal market process imo.I agree. I just make the GPU work more efficiently, so they will generate less heat.
It will also generate less heat, that will be most helpfull during hot summerdays. Multiple gpu rigs will consume a lot of electricity and generate a lot of heat.

Dont think you will ever reach that $5/day/RX 470 profit levels. The way BTC keep dropping, mining will return a deficit and not a profit after elec.costs.
