well, I've just bought a new card for £141 delivered.
I've stuck my old 5770 on ebay.
The new card is coming on Tuesday, hope I'm not disappointed.

I'd make sure you get loads of pics and stuff of the card ith a current newspaper and take note of the serial numbers. Many many *insert name of very well known site that may or may not be an auction site* horror stories on here

We all know it exists but you shouldn't mention it.

I think mods are lax about the auction place because it's not really a direct competitor, and people (like me) are always moaning about it in GD so they'd have a hard job deleting everything :). Good on them tbh, common sense.
