I'll admit I put it on ebay because I wanna get the nVidia GeForce 6800 Ultra for $500. I bought this card for $400. I really could care less if this sold on Ebay but if anybody was stupid enough to buy it for $550, then I could use $500 for the 6800 Ultra, and the $50 for Doom 3 and I'd break even.

That's for reminding me never to do business with you in the future.

Well if I really wanted to sell something I wouldn't jack up the price like that. I'm 99% sure nobody would pay $550 for an X800 Pro anyway but I was bored and figure'd I'd put it up on Ebay to see what happens. If I actually wanted to sell something I'd put it up for auction starting at 1 cent and maybe set a buy it now price at or slightly below the retail price. Once I sold a CPU and RAM at the EXACT price you could get it new for the lowest price on www.pricewatch.com. It's all good

You scam skills need a lot of work. Especially with the "excuse" part. But you're getting there.

Ya know what, after I listed the item. I had second thoughts of charging for shipping, I guess it was too late to change it. I should have made it free shipping!

I don't think that would make up for the fact you listed a used item for $150 over retail.

I feel ya. I was mostly messin around with putting it up for that much. I'm counting on it not to sell but if it does, then hell yeah!
And hey, when it comes to scamming, look at yourselves in the adult business!!! Charging people mad loot to look at porn where you aren't manufacturing anything and just taking in money!!!! hahahaha I'm just fuckin with yall I know it's all business.

If it's been used, it's not new idiot!
Damn, you really fucked up haven't u?
Well it basically is brand new. If I used it for like months then it really wouldn't be all that new. Hey I'm just tryin to run a scam here cut me some slack!!! hehe

It's not new if the box has been opened. You used the fucking card for one week and you have the guts to use "BRAND NEW" to describe it.
I was just thinking. What I'm doing is viewed as somethin fucked up but it is happening all around us. Here are some examples:
Movie theaters charge INSANE prices for popcorn, soda, candy etc. You can buy a whole box of popcorn like 10 packs for like $5, but at a theater its like $3.75 for a large popcorn and about $2.75 for a small. A large soda is like $4 and you can get a 24 case of pepsi for like $8.
A pack of cigs at the local club in my area (Top Dog) is $7!! A hot dog at the Football Stadium is like $3.
A HUGE example is getting drunk at a bar/club!! A fucking shot is like $6 and you can buy a whole bottle of vodka at a liqour store for $11 and that has more that enough shots to get like 3 people reasonably drunk. A beer at a club (unless they have $1 drinks) is like $3, when I can buy a 12 pack of Natural Ice beer for $6.
Basically I'm trying to make a profit on what I'm selling, and I am well aware that it is $150 more than the retail price, but like people who go to the movie, bars, clubs, and football games are being jacked up the ass for products and they just deal with it!!
So don't give me shit for what I'm doin!!! NUFF SED!!!! GO FUCK YOURSELVES AND HAVE A GOOD TIME!!!

Well the difference between movie theaters, cigarette companies, coca cola, pepsi.... Is that they are not stupid enough to admit they're charging more to make a profit and scam people like you just did, idiot.
Well I really wasn't trying to scam somebody. I'm not forcing anybody to buy it for $550. If I really wanted to sell it, I would have auctioned it for at least half the retail.

I would avoid the cards manufactured by VISIONTEK. Go with a company like
SAPPHIRE instead. (the price difference is rarely more than a few dollars)
*these video cards may be designed by ATI, but then can be manufactured by any number of different companies to varying degrees of quality and/or modification.

You're a fucking idiot, plain and simple.
Tell the truth: You're not really a webmaster, right?
I rebooted, deleted temp files, history, cookies and everything...still cannot view the news clip. All I see is that fucking gay ass music video from "Rick Roll". Anyone else have a different link to the news clip?

There are some idiots on GFY that would pay that, only problem is that none of these idiots can spare the cash.
Originally posted by EviLGuY Yeah I'd rather pay the extra 10 bucks and buy a new one locally and not deal with the whole bidding and paying and shipping thing.
Especially with video cards, if it's broken at least you can go change it for another one right away.
Unless it's a somewhat old video card, you won't get good deals on Ebay
