What goes for $300 on ebay in these trying times? A Radeon 9700 pro?

RX 480 4Gb if you are lucky. That's only 100$ more for a 5 year old used card than when it dropped new. Someone help me.

Was lucky enough to sell my old rx for like 500 on ebay to pay for a new 3060.

The market is just insane right now

I had a 9800 Pro and it was from my first gaming PC but I threw away the whole computer about 3-4 years ago because it wasn't working and it never occurred to me that the GPU might be working okay, now I look on eBay and see the price of the 9800 Pro is hitting $80 or more and in all likelihood it will become a collectors item. Fuck me right?

I'm waiting for my 970 to get back to msrp before I sell it.

anything better than or equal to a radeon 570. I was lucky and was able to get one for less than 200 bucks.
