I remember those old leafblowers.

Could either be an engineering sample or a pre-release card to board partners.

I would never buy a piece of vintage hardware just to make it a shelf queen in an RGB glass case.

This was the first GPU I came to know about when I was trying to buy my first GPU.

someone really wanted that card pretty badly.

Over a thousand dollars for a non-working card, there are some crazy collectors out there.

Looks like the previous auction was won by an unregistered Ebay user, may have been a troll or something.
