Was removed from box strictly to verify that it works. I don't want to deal with selling broken shit cross country.

Here are the results. This is stock voltage.

Other than  that it is new in box.



Bitcoin (18.5 includes shipping) or Dwolla ($200 includes shipping)

Obviously I prefer bitcoin but also wanted to make the sale newbie friendly.

I hate to break it to you but it cant be considered new if the box has been opened. Also a new 5850 goes for a maximum of $185 but you have a used 5850.

BTW notice some of those are used. I could have lied and never admitted opening the box at all and no one would be the wiser.
I'd rather know for sure something works instead of wasting people's (including mine) time.

Just to make you happy...

USED 7 minutes

Lowest price on amazon used was $205 not including shipping. $225 new not including shipping.
Some are new for $295.

People are just worried about cards used 24/7 @ overclocked.

This isn't the case. They shouldn't worries about that since it's stocked and used only for 7 mins.

I would bet good money that this card will do close to 400MH/sec at max overclock.
It's got 2 fans and a heatpipe. It's doing 386MH/sec at 961 MHZ.

Ya ok dude... try a different tactic.

I like how you picked out only the 200+ cards. Here's a screen shot of how the 5850 sold the other day.



Next I want to point how ever good your intentions were by checking to see if the item worked it is still used. To give an example you drive a car off the lot just to make sure it works then try to resell it at the retail price you will be deeply disapointed.

At $200 miners are wasting their money. People sell 5870's at 200 dollars here which is better. At 200 dollars you're only getting about 2 megahash per dollar put in (400/200). To give you an example a 5830 would have to cost $165 dollars to get a 2 megahash per dollar ratio. Would you pay $165 for a 5830? of course not.

That is exactly how car dealers work.

If you think the price is too high, don't buy. No point wandering into a sell thread just to troll the price...

He'll soon lower the price if there is no interest at $200.

Of course you can find it sold for lowers prices. That's no mystery. Do yourself a favor and compute the average price.
I'm not desperate or hard up for cash.
The vast majority of prices for USED 5850's is 200 WITHOUT SHIPPING.
If you can find it cheaper. Go there.

Anyhow I'll put pics up in a few, I have to charge my camera batteries.

DAMN YOU.

it's all good really, there will be other cards for sale.

BTW, the seller is cool about payments. I hadd sent payment, he informed me that someone beat me to it by a couple minutes, then sent the BTC back. I was worried for about 10 minutes when I got the PM that someone beat me to  it wondering if I'd get my BTC back, but it's all good now.
