You see them on ebay all the time. People selling 3870x2, 4870x2,GTX295,9800GX2, 8800GTX and Ultra, all for outrageous prices. Why do I want to pay $200 or more for one of these cards when there are faster cards BRAND NEW for the same money? Who would actually pay this much for one of these older cards when so much better is available new AND with a warranty if it breaks? Shouldn't something like a 9800GX2 be only worth about $50 given it's performance and the fact that it is useless in DX11 games? I don't care if you paid $500 for it 3 years ago and it's still in perfect working condition, it's outdated and I can buy better with that money.
