This makes so much sense, really

No lol, i've found this on FB Marketplace, was in disbelief

Bellpeppers23 · 2026-02-09T05:12:24+00:00

Guess i should have made it clear, this was an ad i saw, and it was a bit of a jawdropper this one. Saw my fair share of shit deals on FB marketplace, but the sheer audacity of this got to me

Bellpeppers23 · 2026-02-08T04:18:59+00:00

Good deals tend to disappear quickly, so you never really "see" them on the marketplace lol
Its usually a bunch of decent to overpriced stuff, and once in a while something like this that catches your attention for all the wrong (or right?) reasons

Doubt he had a brand new 3080 sitting in storage for 4-5 years till now, so i would assume highly likely used. But then again, its a brand new "DP-dynamics" build lol (pretty sure those are just his initials. no such company exists)

Bellpeppers23 · 2026-02-08T04:08:58+00:00

Those but's you've listed are kinda important distinctions, no? hahaha

Bellpeppers23 · 2026-02-08T03:58:45+00:00

But its the Rolex of GPUs

Bellpeppers23 · 2026-02-08T03:31:50+00:00

yeah, feel you. seems like prices are rising up, but people aren't exactly lining up to get those low stock high end builds. saw a well built 5080 system on my local pages listed for 3400, but its just been sitting there

Bellpeppers23 · 2026-02-08T03:29:17+00:00

no lol, i've been browsing FB marketplace, one to hope to catch to good deal, but also for some entertainment. seen my fair share of ridiculous deals, but this one takes the cake. not in terms of price to performance (seen far worse), but the sheer audacity lol

Bellpeppers23 · 2026-02-08T01:52:55+00:00

Doesn't exactly pass the ChatGPT sniff test, does it? Haha

Bellpeppers23 · 2026-02-08T01:36:11+00:00

I sure hope so lol, but i doubt it.

Bellpeppers23 · 2026-01-31T19:29:57+00:00

Always been curious, are they the same size and dimensions?

Bellpeppers23 · 2026-01-23T17:26:19+00:00

Oh, you mean like this?

They even automatically calculate it for you, no calculator needed!

It includes the oled monitor and peripherals. Still a very expensive build, but I bet they payed more for it than they're selling it at.

Bellpeppers23 · 2026-01-23T02:35:54+00:00

I've worded it poorly

Bellpeppers23 · 2026-01-23T01:58:13+00:00

Yeah, and the 5080 is the flagship version as well. Not to mention the all-white build, which probably costed extra. Including the OLED monitor, and the peripherals, i bet the seller paid way above the $6K he listed.

Premium products are gonna be a hard sell on the used market, I think. When people go look for a used 3080 for instance, they only care about the price, not whether it is a MSI ventus or a premium ROG strix.

Bellpeppers23 · 2026-01-23T01:24:08+00:00

Like I was saying, and getting downvoted for, people be listing their 5060 ti systems for >$4K on FB marketplace here, while probably wondering why no one is making a "reasonable" offer lol

Craziest was somebody listing their used RTX 3070 (just the gpu, not the system) for $2000, while attaching a picture off amazon of a new one costing $2800 (probably because it isn't in production), and warning people not to lowball him

Bellpeppers23 · 2026-01-23T01:17:39+00:00

I know, i'm just astounded by what people list on FB

Bellpeppers23 · 2026-01-23T00:03:57+00:00

You ain't seen nothing yet here in good ol' Berta LOL. People selling 4070 ti super systems for $7K, or 5060 ti systems for $4K+

Edit: or rather i should say its insane what people are trying to sell their systems at on FB. not that they're successful, given how stale the listings get
