Picked up a GTX580 3b today for 5300 yen, nice!

Someone sold you a GTX580 for less than $60 USD?

How did you  manage to get such an amazing deal? :)


Probabaly for scraps, or she dropped a zero by accident. I somehow flogged a broken GT9800 for £35....and I clearly stated it was broken as well...

No zero dropped, Bought it boxed and new from a local (small) electronics store here in Japan.

I did ask (after paying and putting it in my backpack) why it was on sale (was originally listed at 64,000), and they said most of the pc equipment wasn't selling (pc gaming isn't a big thing in japan, at all), so they were getting rid of their entire stock.

Picked up two i7 3770K's for 10,000 yen a pop too.

That is a great deal on the card, but it wasn't new. The sticker on the box clearly says that it's "used". It's still a great deal though.

I'm going to be selling my 1.5gb gtx 580 cards for much more than that individually. Still trying to decide if I should get one or two 7970 cards.
