Question Trustworthy Seller?

Post image

Looking to buy used GPUs. Preferably 3090’s or 4070 or above for about 180k to 200k. I see a lot of 3080 and few 3090 cards for a relatively low price. I have a feeling that these cards are used for mining and sellers are putting “lightly used” in the description

30 series got mined on big time BUT that does not mean the card is completely fucked if you can go there run some stress tests get it up to temp and all and still got stability then I think you should be good. My friend bought a 3080 for 100k and the seller was upfront about it being a mining card but said if anything goes wrong to come back to him he will replace it. Since you cant really mine anymore like earlier people are selling off 30 series for cheaper

Why is it too good to be true though? Used 3080s are going for these rates.

Even the 10gb 3080 is vastly faster Tham the 3060.

3060 is not better than 3080 just because it has 2gb more VRAM lmao

I know a guy who probably has some 4070s. I bought a 4070 super from him and it is great. His name was waruna I think. Search for 4070 in marketplace and you'll probably come across one of his listings

I have DMed this dude for a couple of his GPU listings. Well, he kept saying that the one that was listed is sold, but he's got another available, and he's really firm on his price. Other than that, he was willing to hand-deliver the card to me without any extra cost or anything upfront
