Price Check- HIS 6850 1GB GPU what's reasonable?

[RichieLee]

I'm looking to sell my GPU in the classifieds but I have no idea what to charge for it
It states in the classifieds section that it's ok to post in the relevant hardware section for a price check so here I am. What do you guys think is reasonable?

It's this one:

I bought this HIS 6850 a year ago brand new for about £120 if I remember correctly. Everything's fine, the outer box got ripped when I was opening it but the inner box and card itself is perfect.

TBH my pc has seen very little use so it's in very good condition. I use a laptop as my workhorse and have had very little time to chill on my gaming pc (I'm typing on my laptop now!). To try and alleviate that, I've now decided to jump in the deep end and bought myself a 7950! Which is why I'm selling this GPU.

Any pointers appreciated, I'd sell for a decent price, it's a cracking little card and runs pretty much everything on high @ 1920x1080.

I would say roughly £80 - £90 but you need to also state the GPU-z screen shot reading on the advert to show it working

Hope this helps

Not sure you'd get as much as £90, though you could try. £80 should be doable easily enough; if you're looking for a quick sale £75 wouldn't be unreasonable. Definitely don't let it go for less than £70

As to GPU-z, I don't think I've seen any listings on Hexus which include it - sure a buyer could ask if they want to check, and you could post one if it's your first forum sale and you want to provide a bit of extra reassurance to people, but (as an FS mod) I wouldn't say it's expected or necessary (we expect you to be honest and not try to sell broken cards as working ).

you wont get £90 - that's more than when they were new , £70 is more realistic , since you can get GTX 470`s for that money


edit:

that and hd 7850`s are around £110 when on special on scan

Great thanks for the advice guys. I'm not sure what gpu-z is but that's fine I'd be happy to run that and screenshot for peace of mind and hopefully a successful 1st time sale. Nothing's going anywhere quick in this weather so I'll try set it up for next week.
