    I've sold 2 whole systems on the eVGA forums (need 50 posts in order to post on their Marketplace) and a few items.

    eBay is good as well.

    Overclock.net is a good place to sell as well, but the 35 rep requirement can be difficult to get.

    I usually just sell to friends locally, sold one or two systems to other XoO members though.

    Personally I would never by a gfx second-hand unless it was from a friend. Usually I just give my old cards away to friends with shitty rigs.

    Nice card. I'm with riot on that. I usually just give away my old cards. But if its worth 350 I probably wouldn't be replacing it anyway heh. Not much out there right now that can make it worth it.

    Really?

    The past 4 pc's ive built in the last 2 years have been almost all 2nd hand parts, especially the video cards, 2x 260's, 3x280's, 3x 465's, and 3x 7950's, never had an issue with any of them.

    Since video card depreciate so fast, getting them second hand is such a steal!

    Hmm.. I think the issue is most of us here know exactly how hard they pound their hardware on a regular basis... I wouldnt pay for any of my parts second hand by the time I'm done with them....
