There are good cards to be had used still for decent prices. Check ebay for GTX 1070's for instance, can be had for around $300.
Grab them 3070s and never look back...take it from someone who let go of 4x 3070s in Nov.My local Memory Express just got '10+' EVGA XC3 Ultra 3070's in stock and a Sapphire Nitro+ 6800. You can only reserve and pick them up in store (good policy). I've been waffling for a few hours now. Still so overpriced. $829 CAD ($628 USD) for the 3070 and $1,135 ($850 USD) for the 6800.
I'm trying to balance whether I could make enough ETH mining with them during downtime to pay off the exorbitant price bump. I do have a B550 board and 5600X, so I guess the 6800 would have the SAM feature going for it...
4gb cards at that price and even higher.RX 570 8GB right? Still the way miners have cleared off the 6GB plus cards even the RX 570 4GB that sucks for mining seems to sell for around $200 used last time I checked. Briefly considered selling my 1660 Super until I saw how much it would cost to get a 570, and RX 570 is the lowest I'd go on my gaming PC.
Think they should start trading in GPU futures just like commodities, if OJ and meat futures can be sold, why not 3080s? Imagine buying an option on 3080s at 699 list due March...
Videocardz has an article about the 1050 Ti back in stock... sure enough it is at Newegg. One of the out of stock models says #1 best seller.
The 1050ti was probably the worst buy of that era, despite being pretty popular. Nvidia probably makes a bundle on those things which might be why they resurrected it.
I was hemming and hawing about buying a used mining rx 470 off ebay as a spare but they're gone now.
Hmm, and it's $40 to $50 more than the original MSRP 4 years ago.

Yes it is and served as a motivator when I purchased my rx 6900 xt on best buy yesterday when it was offered to me in the queue.This pricing is insane:
RTX-Spensive! Galax 3090 HOF Will Top Out at $4,000
Expensive enough to stay in stock?www.tomshardware.com
I wonder if it's just board partners selling off old stock though.

I sold my 1070 a couple months ago for $225 shipped, and people didn’t even bite for a few days ... now there are sold ones closer to $400. Can’t complain really, my 3080 FTW3 was “only” $810 back then.
That's a smoking deal, congrats. I'm seeing local 1070's for US$350, so...Purchased an eVGA GTX 1080 FTW for $225 locally. The seller got lucky and found a 3080, and was looking to sell quick. Not too long after that, I found my 3080 and replaced a 1660 ti with the 1080, then moved the 1660 ti to transcode for Plex.

Well that was how long ago?
A bit over a year ago I purchased a 1080 ti for $275 here on the forums and then resold to a good buddy for the same price after Folding for a while on it.
I thought that was a good deal then for all parties, but I weighed keeping it or my 5700xt and ultimately passed it on.
I had read (I think here on Anandtech proper) that nvidia has resurrected the 2060 and 2060S so hopefully we will see them in the channels before long. The way they are being put into Dells and other OEMs seems to indicate that there are already a decent number of them being produced.
Prices points were to be $300 & $400 I believe, which says something about how the real pricing on the 3060 is likely to shake out. I don't think we'll see it listed at less than $400 for quite some time.
Haha, remember all the Turing cards that got "dumped" because the 3xxx series was going to destroy their value? Hilarious, right? I moved too slow on some CL listings. Would have been genius in retrospect.
Early Oct 2020. Going rates for that card were a solid $300-350 at the time, so $225 was a great deal even then. Dinked around with selling my 1660 ti at the time, but ended up upgrading my Plex rig from a 1050 ti to the 1660 ti, and selling the 1050 ti for $100 locally instead.
