If you bought it in 14 days, then depending on the return policy just return it.

I only see your reply if you @ me.

Unless you bought it from a truck there is a good chance you can return it and get the 1070ti

 

If that is not possible at least you saved yourself from the stupid rgb lighting.

The card was 299,99,  you're getting 290.

The other card was 349.99. 

So how does that make an extra 100? 

 

Hmm you got 290 right, not 199,99 ??

 

Some countries allow companies to charge more while others consider this illegal. 

Congrats with your new card.

Unless you totally destroyed the packaging and throwed away the content of the box.

You can just go to the store and return your 1070 to get the 1070Ti.

It's easy to get to a store and say, i don't want this i want the more expensive one.

 

I wish i could oc my body, during winter overheating would be great.

Yes, I am confused. 

So you are paying an extra 50 bucks for the hassle of swapping the mini for the TI. 

I have to agree with what frong said. If you were living in Europe then this would be illegal.

Laws might work differently in your country but yeah still it sucks.

I mean there is such a thing as a restocking fee, but generally that is $25-30 at most. The fact he is listing it for about 10 less than what you purchased it for means he isn't really seeing much of a loss and at most you should double that difference so $20... which puts you at 70 NOT 100. He is using this as a way to take advantage of you.

 

What is the name and location of this shop. Maybe I will make a call today.

So you're looking at paying $400 for a 1070Ti, which is standard pricing.  It's not $349, it's $399 for you.

 

Is the guy who's buying the 1070 from you, the same one who sold it? Or a different guy?
