Well, it appears the GeForce 6800GT is still commanding a good price.

My system has an eVGA GeForce 6800GT 256MB DDR3 _PCIe_ and it's still up
there in price:

My wife's system has an PNY GeForce 6800GT 256MB DDR3 _AGP_ and it too
is about the same price (although NewEgg.COM does have it for $324.00,
while all others are above $350):

With that said, I might have a buyer for one at the LEAP meeting this
Thursday.  If not, if anyone is interested in either for $250, let me
know.

If you want the PCIe, let me know by _Monday_ so I can order my GeForce
7800GTX and get it in time before Thursday.  I don't have any other PCIe
card to use "temporarily."

If you want the AGP, just let me know by Wednesday, because I have
plenty of spare AGP cards.  I'll downgrade her to a GeForce4 Ti4400
128MB AGP for the next week or so it takes me to get her new, PCIe-based
system.

BTW, I just found out that eVGA has a "full purchase price trade-in
program" for _all_ their video cards!  But as luck would have it, it's
only good for the first 90 days -- and that would mean I just missed the
deadline in July.  Oh well, 90 days is still "nice protection" against a
new card coming out shortly afterwards.
