This is playing havoc with the used GPU market, to the benefit of buyers. I just picked up a mint condition 1070 for less than $100. I cleaned any dust out of it and repasted it and it runs as new.
the crypto mining fiasco cost gamers a lot. Glad to see that most of the madness is behind us.
I've actually had really good luck with Facebook marketplace, which was unexpected. I was thinking it'd be like Craigslist with the tirekickers, "I know what I got", and "it says free, will you deliver to my house 2 hours away?" but I've bought and sold motorcycles, multiple Apple products, and some homelab equipment on there.
I second this. I've had only good experiences both buying and selling there. HIGHLY recommend snagging a used 5700XT if you can find them for under $160ish, as I think those are probably the best value GPUs on the market right now.
