    HF FS/T scam - thoughts / a nod to the community

    Use F&F with extreme caution. I normally don’t bother with sellers who insist on it, good reputation or not. I’d rather pay the extra percentage (assuming the deal is still good) if that means I have some small degree of buyer protection. You only need to get burned once to lose thousands...

    NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang hints at ‘exciting’ next-generation GPU update on September 20th Tuesday

    EVGA no longer making GPUs!

    The whole reason to buy EVGA was American support. The few times I needed them, they were awesome. Welcome to the era of shitty Chinese/Indian support where you will wait 2 weeks for a poorly worded response to clarify your issue. Fuck man. This sucks. Good job nVidia, you short sighted...

    Selling Steam Games

    Selling Steam Games

    Most of the time, people have gotten either codes from a package deal and they are selling an unactivated code. You can't unactivate a game on Steam. You gotta sell the entire account.

    Hey. I purchased that keyboard at a gaming event second hand sometime in 2014. Unfortunately I wouldn't have been able to provide you with that information even at the time I sold it to you 6 years ago. Sorry about the USB hub, good luck.

    How to handle this situation....

    This is why used cards that still have a transferable warranty command a higher price than cards out of warranty. Plus he said he was mining with it? Tough shit. Only he knows what he did with it. Not on you OP.
