1080ti Prices - Do they actually sell?

They sell, like pretty well considering the pricing.

Why? Because some people have money .. lots of it. They don't care about FPS -> Dollar or Price -> Quality.

All they want is the newest card.

You also have the less informed, who shell out quite a bit of money and never know the overpaid!

 

Honestly selling your card to make profit is a human thing, in essence we are all just out to survive & we do that by keeping ourselves well .. stacked.

I could have sold my ASUS STRIX RX 480 8GB for a huge profit, I decided to keep it. It works & selling it then buying a new card might put me into trouble; I've been really fortunate with DOA items lately.

 

Anyhow TL;DR

They sell, because some have too much [$$$] or are not informed properly.

What can we do? Nothing, what we witness is Supply VS. Demand at its sweetest .. or most bitter.

Looking at ebay, I can't help but notice the ridiculous 1080ti prices, especially editions like Asus Strix OC or EVGA FTW3. Used cards selling for £950+, some for £1100 even.

 

Do these actually sell? Like at that or near that price?

 

Because if so I am gladly going to sell mine  which i got on release (£619) and use my old 970 till the 2080 comes out lol

I doubt many go for those prices. For that money, you can get a Titan Xp, after all.

Which is slower in games, especially compared to a Custom PCB 1080ti. That's why i'm asking :)

They sell because people are buying them to turn around and mine with them. That means these cards actually turn around and make a profit in a few months.

 

Some of these cards are being purchased by gamers who just want to get the card, but there are better ways out there to get these for MSRP still in that case.

 

So the people who have high demand and are willing to pay the mark up because they know it will still be profitable are the miners... so since that is mostly the case I would mark it up and sell it.

Actually, it's faster, custom PCB or not. Plus, it will hold its value better. Nobrainer, really.

Actually you are right:

 

 

 

However temps and noise are much better on the Ti, in this instance.

Yeah, that's the Titan's downside. Still, for the same money, it seems the obvious choice.

Yeah I guess, it really depends what you value. It's either 2-3 more fps on average or better temps/cooling/aesthetics.

Seriously within the hour 13 people have allready bitten lol. It must be a scam or a mistake. No one sells a brand new 1080ti for 80 pounds lol.

 

Change that all 30 have sold out. Thats 30 people which will have to wait to get there money back from paypal any luck becuase they will not be getting a Brand new 1080TI in the post anytime soon lol

It can sometimes be a bigger performance difference than that, and of course aesthetics are pretty subjective: I prefer the Titan Xp's design to any custom 1080 Ti, for example. 

 

What would clinch it for me is the resale value. The Titans hold their value very well, so when it comes time to sell the card in a few years...

Well i sold 3 card in the last 2-3days. 2 1080 hybrid  & 1 Ti FTW3.

the 1080 for 700$ each, used for 2 months & a ti FTW3 used for like 7 months, for 900 USD.

I got the 1080s for 600$ & the TI for 760$, So i didnt lose much.

in my experience not as much as you think.  A course they sell at these prices or they wouldn't be listed so high.  But in my experience especially on EBAY 1080 Ti going at $1200 are a dime a dozen so they aren't flying off the shelves.  I have sold a couple 1080 Ti's I got for MSRP and on EBAY you have their fees, Paypal fees, and shipping.  Even if you include shipping your looking at $155 on a $1200 sale.  Actually the fastest way I found selling cards is local for a 8%-12% above MSRP.  If it's a used card expect even less...
