Baulten Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 (edited) I'm looking to purchase an HD 5870. I know it's a long shot, but I thought maybe someone on this forum would have one they'd part with. Stock shortages have kept me from being able to buy one. I'd prefer a brand new card, but I would also buy used. I'm willing to pay $390 shipped for unopened and $370 if the card is used. Newegg should have stock by Saturday, so if I don't find anyone on here before them, I'll be doing that. But, just in case, I thought I'd drop a thread.

Baulten Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 Thank you for the pointless and already known posts. I only posted on the off-chance someone on the forum bought two for benching and might be selling one in the future. Unlike Ebay a lot of people on these forums aren't just wanting to shaft the other members. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike Ebay a lot of people on these forums aren't just wanting to shaft the other members. These pointless posts in these threads also really piss me off. I totally agree with you!!! Seriously guys, don't post useless . in a WTB thread, only post if you have what he wants. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baulten Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 Thank you Dark. I am not a moron; I know that supply is low and people are shafting people on Ebay left and right. However, it's a known fact that people on this forum aren't like that, so if someone, as I said, bought two or three for benching and wanted to sell them, I wanted to make sure my desire to buy was known. Otherwise it's gonna be F5 spamming newegg the next few weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baulten Posted November 1, 2009 Posted November 1, 2009 fearspartan117, Sorry, your post sounded like more of a "Haha, like you're going to find one!" then a genuine good luck wish. Thanks for it, though. And it appears I have found one! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
