Good news for anyone who wants to buy GPUs. The insane, ridiculous, BULLSHIT HIGH GPU prices on ebay will be crashing soon. There is precedent for it, and I have called the market correctly twice now.

How do I know this? Two main factors.

1. Burnout, plain and simple. The prices have been so high for so long, that enough people are beginning to say "F@CK THIS SH!T", and simply not bid or buy. The greedy commie bastards who have been buying up all the GPUs and boosting prices super high are about to get a huge financial loss, and I hope it gets even worse for those greedy f@ckers.

2. I just sold my 1070 GPUs on ebay. I bought them in mid December for $1325 shipped, and I decided that if I couldn't buy more at these prices, I'd offer mine up for sale at what I thought was a ridiculous price. If they didn't sell, that's okay, I'll keep mining with them. If they did sell, great, PROFITS for me! Some guy paid a little over DOUBLE what I paid for them. I kinda felt bad for him premature ejaculating all over things and paying such a high price, but hey, someone has to pay my bills!

Back in late 2017, I paid $2000 for 3 Avalon 741 ASICs, and put them to work mining for me, and they did well. I wanted to buy more, but the prices were rising too high, too fast. So I made up another ebay auction with a ridiculous price, and someone paid SIX THOUSAND DOLLARS for them. What the hell, box them up and ship them out, and PROFIT!

So I'll take this influx of cash to pay off the credit card, and I'll sit quietly and wait for GPU prices to crash. And even after they crash, I will still offer lowball prices to buy many more on ebay, and rebuild my hash farm.

Even now, seeing the money in my bank account and looking beside me at my GPUs humming away, knowing I have to box them up tonight, it's a tough choice. Keep the money and lose the GPUs, or keep the GPUs and give back the money. The money will win, I can always buy more GPUs cheaper later.

We've hit the turning point, so if you are about to buy GPUs on ebay, STOP RIGHT NOW. Wait a month or so, and when the commie theiving scalpers are hurting, prices will crash. THEN buy, like I will!

Time has changed, this is not 2017.
"COVID" has changed the entire world.
