Planning to sell few cards. Which places are recommended beside eBay? All are currently mining ETH. Radeon VII and 580 8GB

You can't sell faster here mate because people don't trust each other on here when it comes to making payment and receiving packages, I don't blame them because of scammers, even if you see buyers on here it's better to use any form of escrow, ebay is just a faster solution

Have used ebay for both buying and selling cards. Was just wondering is there is better marketplace as ebay charges 10%

Reddit hardwareswap is good to avoid Ebay fees.
Craigslist as well.

If you don't find buyers there, just use EBay.

IF you have a Facebook account your can try Marketplace.

Dreams Escrow works perfectly. I've just bought a 3070, and all went well. https://discord.gg/MezcCxb (https://discord.gg/MezcCxb)

Shipping to France ? :)

If ebay is charging 10% then increase the amount of your goods, add the extra ten percent back to the goods, this is how things work with online marketing, anyways, you can try Newegg or Aliexpress If you don't mind sending cards to other part of the world

If you don't mind me asking, which country are you from and how much are you willing to sell those gpus? If ebay isn't good enough for you there are tons of online stores you can sell those graphic cards, we have Amazon, aliexpress, newegg, best buy etc

Do not buy gpu from anyone without escrow, you might get scammed, I'm not saying OP is a scammer but replying based on your post, it's better to buy from online store than sending money to someone that may never send your goods

It is hard to ship internationally from US. Sorry

I am from US. Sold one 580 8GB for 295. Had it listed on eBay for bid starting 225 and buy now price of 295. It was gone in half hour. Noticed that eBay took $31 and $10 was charged by PayPal. So I would get  $254. Still a good price for selling a used 580.

It seems you are ok with how much you sold the 580? Then why looking for other means of selling your graphic card ? Now that you know how much ebay is charging you can add few dollars more to the rest of the gpu that you still want to sell, moreover 254$ for a RX580 isn't bad at all like you said, is that a 8gb version or 4gb?

The gpu was 8GB.
I have been thinking of reducing mining rigs and as there are a good number of GPUs and therefore was looking for more option.

What more option are you talking about? Are you trying to sell those RX580 for higher end graphic cards like RTX3060 and higher? It's better to keep mining with those RX580 since they are 8gb versions, I'm sure they are still giving 30mHs per card, now isn't a good time to buy cards because they are too costly

Do you still have the Radeon VII? How much are you selling? I heard about the errors that AMD Radeon VII are getting, hope this isn't getting any error 43 or so? If it's working perfectly I will like you to drop tell me the price and if it's good enough I can buy through eBay, all you have to do is drop me the link to the card on ebay

I dont want to sell for more. However dont like giving 13% commission to ebay and get not much seller protection.

The card is not giving any error. I am still double minded on selling the card but would message you with link of ebay in case I put it on ebay.

If you sell in marketplace here and use a guy like me to escrow the fee is about 20 usd minimum

but if you more than one card I charge 3%.

Ie 1 300 dollar card. 20 bucks minimum

3 x 300 = 900  x 3% 27 dollars

I did a lot of escrows.

I protect buyer and seller.

buyer has a day or 2 to test gear ⚙️

says it is okay and i release funds to seller.

so the old ebay trick of a buyer using a card for a month and saying it is no good does not happen.

so market place  sale is okay with a proper escrow.

but I dont like little 200  or 300 dollars sales as they are just as much work as 1000 dollar sales

You should just Craiglist your GPU or Facebook market place. Right now GPUs are sold out everywhere that there is high demand for GPUs like the RX series. I've been selling mine slowly since 2018 and it usually took 1 month to sell 1 GPU. Now you make an ad and it usually sells out in less than 24 hours. And there are less low ballers.

Back in 2018, I kept getting messages like "I know you mined with this GPU, so I will give you $20 CASH, TODAY!". While now most people send messages like "Is it still available, if so, I will pick it up ASAP". And you never get any low balls. If you list it for $100, normally you would get lowballed for $75 or $80, however you list for $100 and people pay $100, no questions asked. Meaning there is huge demand.

It does not matter where to sell now. Today you can just publish your sell announcement  anywhere and if price is ok - you get several calls per day.

for 5xx series it is fine as they are cheaper. The issue is when selling Radeon VII as they are going for over $1000 on ebay. What is stopping from a buyer to pay and then chargeback. I heard that ebay always sides with buyer. I would expect a craigslist buyer to check the GPU in a system before paying over $1000

Send it signature required.  If the buyer received the card and then tried to fraudulently do a chargeback you would win.  I would also press charges for theft and let their local authorities and credit card company see if they wanted to add credit card fraud onto the theft charge.
