So I Sold one of my 8800 Ultras

Post by MrBlah » Mon May 05, 2008 6:35 pm

Yes i did it... i sold one of em. For a whoppin $460 on Amazon... after shipping and Amazon's cut, $420 about.... if you ask me, by far the best investment a person could have ever made in a video card. 70% resale value after one year... better than even some cars :D lol...
