true, the card in question is a modded card. you keep saying that jamban was at fault for not contacting you before he put the card in. common sense may have told him however, that it would be ok to just try the card out anyway. here's where it gets complicated;

from what i gather from all your posts, kcnyc, is that you require your future buyers to know how to overclock, and know how to use slash own a multimeter. i use modded stuff, i have basic knowledge on how to overclock something, but i have no idea how to use a multimeter, or what a dmm is.

my point is, you may not have been clear enough as to how severe the consequences may be if your buyer were to assume that the card was plug 'n play. some people see a good deal on a good graphics card, they might just decide to buy it. i mean, you can't expect everyone to be as smart as you, or to meet all the criteria i mentioned above.

and top of all that, mr viper john himself said that it couldn't have been anything wrong with the card itself if it were direct from him. he also mentioned that it couldn't have been the voltage or whatnot because if you said it worked on your pc before shipping, it should work on any other pc as well. no offense to you kcnyc, but i'd take mr viper's word against yours on this.

i might have missed something, but is it true that you have referred a friend to jamban who you can trust to check the card out? considering you would rather not have any senior lyn members check the card out for some reason. well if you friend can check it out, then by all means. jamban has contacted your friend, showing his good intent and not wanting to make too big a deal of this, he just wants a working graphics card.

anyway, good luck. i hope you two can reach an agreement, and i hope jamban can get his graphics card.


PS; i think $150 is pretty steep considering the card is 2 years old. and the packaging doesn't exactly look like it's in the best of shape. who knows, the card may have been damaged during transit any how. but what i would like to point out is that, mr viper did not recognize your name as anybody to whom he had sold a card to, meaning that you may have obtained it from another party. if so, the this also means that the item for sale is 2nd hand, yet you did not specify this in your sales post.
