That's what I was trying to tell him in my 7950 sale thread.  But he said he was going to have a solution with regards to the inflated sales prices:

It's all good, I'll soon have a solution.  Just working at it.  Wish me luck, please.

I'm guessing offering less than retail is his solution  ???

Exactly... at £170($297), that's still about $840 for 3 of them.  That's if you get a steal like you did(and you got a steal!).  At preev.com prices that's 1.162BTC.

Grendel... you need to be more realistic about what GPUs are selling for right now.  You're asking people to sell 280Xs and 7950s at $240 a card.  It's just not realistic, mate.

People bid under market prices all the time.  Big picture, it's plenty realistic.  Insert volatile nature of btc comment here: ...

I bought a brand new, in box 280x for .375 btc (high recent btc value).  So how is .333 btc for a used item unrealistic?  It's because so many have literally 'bought' into the hype.  I just choose not to and if my strat is to wait then that is my strat.  Realistically, mate.

Updated the subject to be more price neutral.  Going to want to put some of this btc to use one of these days.
