Why not stick them on ebay at £250? You'll get someone buy at that within 48 hours guaranteed. Use the funds to get a much cooler 1080 or 1080ti.

At the moment I can't particularly afford 500 quid on a GPU.
I wish I'd bought a Fury for 299 when I had the chance.
He is saying if you have a pair of 290X you could get upto £500 for the pair from the bay, then use that £500 to get something like a 1080 or 1080Ti.

+1 sell them quick before the mining bubble goes pop. Get a nice 1080ti..

I've only got a single 290XHe is saying if you have a pair of 290X you could get upto £500 for the pair from the bay, then use that £500 to get something like a 1080 or 1080Ti.
290X's = 290X is?
**** it, going to stick my MSI GE OC 290 up at the weekend for £350 and see what happens, if it doesn't sell then I'll drop it to £300 followed by £250 and if that doesn't sell then I won't bother as by the time the fees get taken of and I get a second hand cheap card etc. it won't have been worth the hassle.

Guaranteed £300+ and probably over £350 as it is one of the better 480s

These guys are doing an ex-demo 480 for £450!
https://www.overclockers.co.uk/asus...-pci-express-graphics-card-oem-gx-41n-as.html
Ex-mining* (There's literally no way they had 100 "ex-demo" units lying around) lol
I think I've convinced myself with the maths, I'll get it on over the weekend! No gaming for a few weeks for me it seems..
Nope, a load of gaming systems we built for gaming events and LANS sometime ago that have being sitting in our warehouse collecting dust. Which they would have carried on doing as there was no urgency to sort them but as an RX 480 is worth a small fortune we decided to get them dismantled pronto. If OcUK was mining these would not be for sale as RX 480 is AMD's best mining card.
Wasn't allowed on a post in MM yesterday. Though if ocuk are going to be doing it on used cards...0_o
Seriously?!
People have every right to choose their selling price on here......
If someone wants to buy a card at a silly price then let them.
Although there is no way anyone on the mm will buy such gpus for these crazy prices anyway.
Its against one of the MM rules as its considered "profiteering", though if ocuk are going to be doing the same thing i have to wonder...
I don't see the issue even if ocuk weren't charging the same prices, at the end of the day it is the going rate for 480s etc. now so people are perfectly entitled to list "their" product for that price too.
It would be a bit different if someone bought 3+ from somewhere and then came on here to sell them all for the much higher price but that isn't happening from what I can see.
EDIT:
Heck even gibbo himself is encouraging everyone to sell their 480s, 290s, 390s etc. etc. for silly prices.....
