This is...the most...irritating style of writing...I have ever seen...

with the
possible exception
of writing
like this.

No disrespect to your content, just how it's presented. Good luck with your cards.

The 8800 ultra has held its value better then any other video card to date. They still sell for $200+ on ebay. You can buy a new card with better performance for less money new, but the Ultra is still a sought after card. They are like rare sports cars, some actually increase in value. I know someone who bought a few when XFX released a line of them about this time last year for $199 and he turned around and sold them for $250+ on ebay. Even while you could still get them for Tiger for $199.

Sometimes things sale for more than they are really worth on Ebay
must be the thrill of winning against people from all over the world

Check the price that the GTX 285 is getting on ebay

Not to long ago I bought an ultra from someone on here just to have one. For the price I paid I could have gotten a faster card but I just had to have one.

It's still an amazing card and can still play any game out there.

Those are still some of the best looking cards from Nvidia to date.

I wouldn't say the best. One of the best maybe. GTX285 classified from EVGA looks amazing.

Nice cards though. I remember when those cards came out and drooling over the specs and crying over the price tags.
