I'm curious to know everyone's opinion on how much an used graphic card should be priced according to its MSRP.

i think 30 to 40 percent (or even less, maybe even 5 percent more) because people can really profit because of the shortage

Its hard to give a percentage.  It all depends on its age and usage and the general quality if the card.

It depends:

  • Age/generation. I'd pay 90% of MSRP for a brand new RTX 3060 Ti (pretend we're in reality here), but wouldn't pay more than 40% of MSRP for a 4GB GTX 960 these days, and wouldn't dream of paying more than paying more than 5-10% of MSRP for a used GTX 285 that I plan to drop into an old retro PC setup.
  • Condition of the card. If your RTX 3090 has no cooler and someone has clearly tried to eat the board...I'll give you a dollar. If your GTX 285 is BNIB in perfect, unused condition and I'm looking at it as a flip or a collector's display piece, I might come up to 20-25% of the original $395 MSRP if that's what it takes.
    • This kind of also applies to historical significance of the card, if any. For a boring reference cooler GTX 780, nah. No bonus points. For that wacky Gigabyte (I think?) 780 that had five fans? Oh yeah, that's got my attention and would be worth a little more. Emphasis on little.
  • What tier is the card in? If you're trying to sell me a used GT 710 1GB DDR3...lol. I'll give you a dollar, and I do not care what condition it's in. If you're trying to sell me a used GTX 1080 Ti, well, now, let's start looking at the condition of that card.

Aerocool DS are the best fans you've never tried.

In this current time you'd pay MSRP for a used card. I bought a damn prebuilt so I could get a rtx 3070 for under $1,000
