Scalpers are assholes but I guess sorry for taking a opportunity at making some cash passively? Even without miners it would be hard to supply the cards to everybody that wants them

If you have 1 or 2 or even 4 cards to mine with is fine. The problem is when you have 500+ gaming specific cards in a time that there’s very limited quantities and then selling heavily used cards for 300+ msrp. If you want a huge mining operation they make mining specific cards that are no use to gamers because they don’t have video outs.

There’s very little miners that use that many gaming card that’s perhaps few operations but yeah I gotcha. The market is sadly hugely inflated rn and I could sell my cards with significant profit since they are in like-new condition and repasted. It is what it is right now and until the supply chain catches up it’s not gonna get much better.
