nvidia Small Story about a guy who wanted to sell a video card

[CountMaxMore]

So, I was browsing the kijiji's for a new video card just to throw in my old Core 2 Quad computer to get it doing something again when I came across a Nvidia GeForce 8800 and I thought that would be a great old card so I messaged the guy to confirm model and such because I was just going off from picture and I was correct so I asked him how much he was thinking it can't be any more then 50$ so he came back with the price of 450$ and I was like what lol and he was like yeah 450$ and then I was like dude I will give you 30$ for it and he was like nope 450$ and I asked him if he knows its like a 10 year old graphics card that doesn't have hdmi and would be surprised if it could handle 1080p gaming and he was like they are 450$ new so I want 450$ so I sent him a eBay link for 24$ 8800 and I said I like the price of this one better have a nice day

Has he ever bought or sold ANYTHING used before? You don't get the full price even if you just arrived with it back from the shop.

Wow I don't know guys but I think this is becoming a trend. There are a lot offers like this on ebay. In fact I found a guy selling a used reference GTX 680 for 400€. I messaged him to ask if he was for real and he really claimed that a six-eighty was worth that. I mean yes, the six-eighty was a beast back in the day, but today I just can't keep up.
