just selling my old stock RX 480s and stock RX 470 and getting new RX 580/570 instead of them. It's a good deal. though a funny feeling i have while selling them 120€ over the price i bought em...but it's the market dictating the prices... Sad

With the more effective power consumption, not sure it was a so good deal...

Now, it is more productive to buy nVidia GPUs :-).

yeah, also having a bunch of GTX 1070, 1080 and 1060 working like horses. but for eth AMD's are the way to go. Reference RX480/470 are getting very hot and very loud in my environment. and i only had like 5-6 pieces, which i couldn't combine in one rig since it was dying all the time. Since i received RX 580/570 without any problems it was a way to go to sell the old ones.

You guys must of never sold anything on eBay before.

The Paypal protection only covers the buyer. Someone can buy a GPU today, mine with it for 180 days and then file a dispute saying "Its broken".

Paypal always sides with the buyer. It doesn't matter if you got a 10 year old account with great feedback.

Search this forum for horror stories if you don't believe me.

No.

You try and sell on eBay and you might get a chargeback due to Paypal protection.

You try and sell it locally like that and who knows... might get robbed or might get into some low-balling people who just waste your time...

No idea why you would even sell at a time like this since by selling you would lose more money than selling it at a huge markup right now.

Paypal seller protection specifically protects you in the case of a chargeback.... ive had it happen a few times to me and PayPal has always covered me.

Now, selling locally is just stupid, you have a far, far bigger potential market online. Besides some of us live in the middle of nowhere so online/eBay is all we can do anyway.

If you have RX cards to sell then now IS the time. Not often at all that a GPU is worth substantially more than you paid for it...

I probably should sell mines I have 40 RX470s sitting in a box that i just removed because i bought 1080tis to replace them. I need to stop being so wasteful. Hell I have about 100 AC1750's that I yanked that have been sitting in my garage for 2 years. At 70-100 each... yeah i should stop being lazy lol

Charge back for what?

The buyer has a %100 feed back.

I have been on ebay since 2000 and only had one issue and that was as a buyer.

I already made my ROI months ago and with the new cards coming out I wanted to sell them while I could get top dollar.

I made money by selling them and when you consider when new cards, AMD and Nvidia, come out in the next month or three the prices on used ones will drop and the more they drop the more my profit will end up being.

I sold each of my 2 RX480's for over $100.00 more than what I purchased them for a little less than a year ago.

I figure with the shortage and high price I could sell them for more than I would mine with them in the next few months and I'll use the money to upgrade.

Haven't decided what tho. Huh

Maybe with the money I'll buy THREE RX 580's when they are back in stock. Cool

Or just go with a GTX 1080 Ti.........

I was able to get some 1080's over the weekend and the day I got them, yesterday, they went up $120 each. Surprised how fast all cards are rising in price. Just a few weeks ago 1070's were on sale for $330.

Maybe instead of ebay you try to find tech for sale forums to sell on. Ebay never sides with the seller.
