I know it says no GPUs here but I'm genuinely trying to find out what a fair price for a used ASUS AMD RADEON R9 270X 2GB GPU is. Seeking info for a friend. It's in good condition and comes in box, no invoice.

It performs slower than a 1050TI, slightly faster than a 760 but consumes as much power as a GTX freakin 1080 (180W TDP, minimum PSU required 600W).

I would say 4-5K, nothing more than that, even in the current inflated market at the lower end.

Swappa has listings for the exact same specs [except its the 8 gig 5600m] ranging b/w 1900 -2700 USD depending on condition. Maybe use that as a baseline?

Keyboard repair cost is 8k, how much after I get it repaired?

That's insane. Where did you ask? You don't need "branded original" one. A third-party keyboard shouldn't costs over 2k. I've replaced laptops keyboards for only 1300-2000 in Nehru Place. Also one can always use a separate keyboard.
That's the only feasible way for you to sell imo. Or just keep it with you. Selling old laptops always lead to a huge loss.

The keyboard is held in place with plastic tabs, which cannot be removed, so you would have to replace the whole mounting mechanism, otherwise the keyboard backplate, which is made of metal will cause a short..

There is no other option but to get an original. Asked in Delhi, Indore, and Bangalore laptop markets. Service centers are the only way to get things fixed for this model, and that's what they've quoted.
Also it's 9.5k, lol. I would have done it years ago if it had been a 2k fix, albeit I could find the battery for a little less, but no luck with the keyboard.

And we use an external keyboard, although portability suffers as a result.
Question being, can I sell for 30k after the repair or even that is too much?

No 30k is too high. It won't be feasible for the buyer. Try to sell it as is and see how much you can get. Not everyone carry their laptop everywhere they go so not all is lost yet.
This is admittedly more complicated than I thought. I thought it would just be attach and detached. Its not even a mech keyboard and they make it so complicated. Another reason to hate on gaming laptops.

I'm not a mod and I don't know. Do it privately. If you don't have a fb account create a fake one and join multiple buy/sale groups and curate the prices yourself. More work but more info.
