and sold them in hours for four times that. That’s a tidy profit for the buyer and still a good CPU for its resold price.

the whopping deal they had found. $350 below its MSRP, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D was selling for $99.75 as the Walmart they work at was remodelling and the components section was closing alongside it. It is unclear right now if they plan on reopening it but much of the tech in-store had been there for some time and the Ryzen CPUs were some of the last stock available.

at the end of last year. The 7800X3D is currently powering my home rig and it’s still an excellent chip, despite being surpassed.

the poster. The reason these CPUs sold for so cheap is that the store was selling off its components for 50% off for weeks prior to the lucky moment the original Redditor had found.
