Newegg Commerce, Inc., a global e-commerce leader for technology products, today announced the launch of Newegg's GPU Trade-In Program, allowing customers to trade in an eligible GPU device and receive a trade-in value credit toward the purchase of a new qualifying graphics card also known as a graphics processing unit (GPU).

Newegg's GPU Trade-In Program not only helps customers upgrade to a newer GPU model, the program also helps limit electronic waste. By offering a resource for customers to exchange their unwanted GPUs for new ones, the program simultaneously contributes to waste reduction and facilitates cost-effective PC upgrades.

You’d get more money selling on eBay. Plus with Newegg’s reputation, I wouldn’t trust them to not fuck around with people’s returns.

Though then you have to screw around with selling on eBay. Worth it for some, not for others.

Newegg is far worse than eBay

They'll offer $90USD for a 3-fan Gigabyte RTX2060 6gb. Vancouver has some Gigabyte 2060 cards listed for >$200 CDN, so Newegg is undervaluing my card by 50%. I guess the trade off here is I don't have to barter but... I'd sooner list it myself and get the cash.

Wow the 10X0 line isn’t even listed. I bet there’s a lot of people out there who are still clinging to those.

I’m still rocking a 1080ti. Still runs the games I play, although I would like to try ray tracing.

Same boat here (except not a ti). I want to upgrade but Nvidia is fucking crazy with their pricing. I’m considering AMD as my next purchase. (Typed ATi and had to correct it.)
