Sandy said:hmmm deejay even today 6800 Ultra sells for atleast 15k :S
for a 7800Gt you should get 18 ~ 19k
switch I think you should wait for the next gen dx10 cards
"jab miya biwi razi to kya karega Kazi...."
hyeah:I Expect to see some 7800GT cards being dumped in the range of 14 ~ 15K here soon ....:clapping: :yahoo:
No. not currently...what made you think i was selling it now ?? :huh: (some strange presumptions)
but when i do upgrade to a better card in the near future then i will surely give it to you for about 9~10K. i.e. after buddy switch refuses it for 8.5~9K since i have promised him the right of first refusal ....
near future = Time is relative...so dont ask how "near" is "near" ....Got it.
so do we have a deal ?....(lets see who honours their commitments...hyeah: )
if you guys want to buy it here urgently with local warranty and all then on or around 15th of this month sapphire is gonna introduce these cards here locally .....(as informed by darky...)

well i can send u 8k for that card rite now if u want, but since you are waiting for upgrade, which will be atleast a month if i have to take a guess, till then, the prices wud fall even lower since the sapphire ppl are introducting these cards. so ur better off selling the card now then later at a greater loss
@ Sandy,Sandy said:haha
I may be stupid
....but i cannot provide false info. to the members..:no: or take them for a ride by price rigging or getting my net pals to influence the prices by "unnecessarily" asking them to post favourably in the market threads (most deplorable practise).....please remember that. I have always quoted prices at which i have "actually" bought or sold pc components (either for myself or for my friends)....and will continue to do so ...
Rave said:
@ RAVE , pal it seems you have difficulty in understanding some basic terms and sentences .....
READ AGAIN...
"No. not currently...what made you think i was selling it now ?? (some strange presumptions)"
"near future = Time is relative...so dont ask how "near" is "near" ....Got it. "
but if you insist on sending me 8K now :cool2: then i have no problems since we will put that in our mumbai lan gaming fund and keep a two minute silence in ur honour before the start of each session ....:clap:
ps: kindly remember i am not a trader of any IT components ....it is not my business, it is merely a hobby. hence even a few lakhs loss here and there for my hobby and passion would not make any difference to me ..and neither will a few hundred or thousand bucks profit.

dear deejay that was ment for rave merly to say that I was with him in other words I was stupid with and like him..

If you are then I am sorry sir you are completly wrong :no:

even the us pricing is close to 13-13.5K at this moment.deejay said:
Hell if it was that cheap i would already be on SLI.
But unfortunately we are in india. And even imported cards get sold at higher price here. And i dont blame anyone for selling it for higher price. They got it here from USA. thats not always free and not always possible for guys like us. So if someone charges some premium for it then ok. But it should not be unfair premium and what is unfair or not should be decided by buyer.
If i am to sell my 7800GT there is no way i will go that less even after launch of say next gen cards as i know even then 7800GT wont be available that cheap here locally and afterall my card is local purchase. I wanted to sell it now but due to some reasons my upgrade plan could not go through.
We all want goodies at US price but thats not always possible is it?
You have contacts in us to supply you hardware regularly, we dont

my those remarks were not all directed at you. it was generic in nature. not at all applicable to you. you are just unnecessarily getting stuck in the ongoing "intelligent" debate / discussion/ Banter between me and Rave.
but lately i saw some of this activity in the market section and pointing out the same for the benefit of other members...
since this is not the market section i can only hint about it in general terms at appriopiate threads.but ultimately it is the buyer and seller who are gonna determine the prices.
for e.g. Rave is forcing me to give my GTO2 to him @ 8K even when i dont want to sell.:huh: all i want to ask him is this "Dear Rave , How much would you estimate The Price of EVGA SLI m/b " ?? let him reply and then see the fireworks....:tongue:
please i do not want to start a flaming war (for what purpose??) as Rave is trying to do. but rave forgets that i am the chief Bhikhari of TE and beggars generally have the best idea of street prices , especially of used (second hand) items ..ohyeah:
psst.... Rave , you want a 3000+ venice for 4.8 ~ 5K + Shipping...(nearly full 3 yrs warranty left)
(Deejay imagining the heated debates / abuses Rave and his co. heaping upon me privately in the IM channels...:tongue: )

Hi funky...i fully agree with what you say above regarding non applicability of US street prices here. They should never be compared IMHO and i have never compared it.
i never see the price of nvidia cards anyways ...and to get stuff from friends / relatives from usa is sometimes more expensive than the local dealer prices if you consider the hidden expenses of trans shipment , wineing and dining them , local collection charges, Social engineering etc....
But the prices that i have quoted are based upon atleast 2 sales recently of used 7800GT cards.(Not here on TE may i remind you) i was privy to one Sale infact helped a little bit to lower the price and other i had actually bought recently for a friend.....hence i am basing my estimations on known, actual transactions. Since these are for used , second hand cards the prices are and will be ambiguous.
I am not in favour of lowering of prices unnecesarily since many of my /our mutual friends will be affected since most of them are on the verge of upgrading but hey i only quoted prices which i have seen actually taking place.
personally if i had a 7800 GT to sell and if i was upgrading i would have sold it at the most reasonable rate in the above price band and moved on ....no point in delaying the inevitable...
@Rave...why you had to quieten down so early....
just last night a very active member of TE was complaining that there is not much "activity" on TE since the past few days ...quote "previously when i used to press the new post button i used to get 3 pages full of new posts now i get only about 12 ~ 13 or so ...." unquote so i was just trying to do my bit to inject some excitement in the site ....:no: without getting too personal or commercial....

well deejay 7800GT are still 24.5K here. There is no way 13-14K is fare price for locally purchased 7800GTs. If someone sold it at that price then honestly he is either too desperate for something new or he had gone creazy.
Thats more than 40% less cost than purchase price and thats justified when there is next gen card available at similar cost as the old purchase.
