Thinking of buying the Combo HTC is doing right now of a Vive, Fallout VR game Code and GTX 1070 because I figure for 200 bucks more then the Vive by itself I should be able to sell the 1070 and come out cheaper then buying the Vive at it's normal price so trying to estimate what people might be willing to pay is USD for a NEW IN BOX Founders 1070 to see if it's worth the effort.

400$ solid, I'd say maybe 370 or 350 lowest

375$ is a very solid asking price, there are people who do prefer the Founders Edition looks enough to get it even second hand if the bargain is good ^^

founders is also guaranteed to have a waterblock for it if you want to go custom loop, I'm all for selling for a fair price if I do this (wouldn't try to rip people off charging to close to retail like some do), anything over 200 bucks is when I would start saving money off the stand alone headset cost but I would want like a 100 more just to make it worth the effort, but not opposed to more if it's reasonably fair to ask for it, which from what you guys are saying with the 350-400 range (backed up with ebay sales) seems justifiable.

already up to 400 on Ebay, we'll see how much higher it goes (Buy It Now set at 455 because Ebay makes you set the Buy It Now 30% higher then the starting bid and I couldn't find out how to set a reserve so I set the starting bid at 350), just on day 1 of the week long listing. Been on Ebay for MANY MANY years, but never sold anything on it before.
