Title: [WTS] Sapphire Radeon 5850s (40) - Price Reduced!!!
Post by: citizen on February 08, 2013, 09:50:25 PM
I have a huge pile of these cards leftover from my mining days.  I mined a couple years back for about 4 months.  Since then the cards have just been sitting in my basement, taking up space.  All of these 5850s worked great - I can't remember any specific issues with any of the cards.  I will verify to make sure fans spin before shipping.  They were only used a few months, and not aggressively clocked and voltage never changed.  I will guarantee that they work with full refund or replacement if you notify me within 7 days of delivery.

I have other mining hardware I'll be selling too, including some 5870s.  So keep an eye out for those listings.

I am asking $75 per card.  We split shipping.  I prefer not to ship overseas anywhere.


Thanks!

I'm not 100% sure, but I believe you may have a hard time selling a 5850 for $90 each. I guess time will tell.

You might be surprised, for some reason 5850s sell almost as well as 5870s (despite being a fairly inferior card both for mining and gaming). However you *are* flooding the market by dropping 40 at a time, but if you're in no hurry to sell it might be fine.

Always a good suggestion:

1) Pictures of cards, to show they haven't been sitting inside of a dust ball for years, to show which version of the card they are (reference, custom shroud?), and to prove they're real.
2) Shipping item will includes boxes, cables, adapters, or card only?

$70, you pay shipping to Canada  because of low posts, will only use escrow. Period. Final offer.

Maybe it's because 5850s (and 5870s) can be used with OS X in a Mac or Hackintosh, but 5830s can't.

I just reduced the price of these.  I'm trying to clean up and downsize on computer equipment.

Discussed offer and shipping. Only request is time stamped pics and then I'll be looking for an escrow. If anyone is willing to offer to do so step forward any time.

We discussed shipping and verified over the phone through his business. Buying without escrow, waiting for an address.

Still waiting for the coins to show up.  Since you sent from deepbit, perhaps there is a delay on their end.

Maybe it's my client - I'm running an older version.  No worries though, I see that you sent it in the block explorer, so we will just wait.  I have no doubt they will show up soon.

Hey Sal,

sorry for not responding sooner.  I'm not really interested in using an escrow service.  I would be more open to using a member as escrow.  But even that is a little time consuming, and time is something I'm short on.

pwn's bitcoins did come through finally.  They came in at around 6:30 PM central time - a good 3-4 hours after he sent them lol.  kinda strange, guess slow network or something.

Assuming he deliver's I would recommend this user as escrow-less, great communication and open to showing that he runs a business and remains in the professional mindset in using bitcoins as the currency.

Even you have left?, As for 2 cards, with shipping to USA. Thanks, you could declare the shipping worth less than $ 100. Thank you. I need you to give me bill to go through customs, and then be sent to Venezuela.

Just recieved. Haven't tried it yet but it looks like it will work, everything is what I expect from bitcoin mining. Oh and another thing, not only was this a Sapphire 5850 card but it's also an Extreme.

But ebay+paypal fees will cost you about $10 per card. So you actually sold them for $80 each.

Actually, he sold them for 90$. Selling price and profit are not the same thing.

What's the availability on the 5850s and perhaps 5870? I am looking to buy 5ish.
