So I hopped onto amazon looking at old cards and take a look at the 550ti. Well I guess that I shouldn't go buy that 1080, just get the 550ti instead. Look at this: https://www.amazon.ca/Ti-Graphics-ENGTX550-DI-1GD5/dp/B007RFXVAC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1478217475&sr=8-1&keywords=550+ti

I can buy 3 1070's for the amount of 1.5k CND pesos! which is cheaper than the 550ti. That damn 550ti has to be made out of damn gold to have me sold on it completely.

This happens with most used computer parts, it isn't uncommon that people have an unopened on from a few years ago and suddenly they think that it is solid gold, age can improve some items like old cars, and such with computer components used components just turn into trash.
