LOL. Sorry this guy had to go through this even though he might have also had to spend quite a bit of time to mine before he saw any returns worth talking about.

I don't even feel sorry for the guy. Crypto miners are the worst scum ever and they're the reason video cards prices have gone up significantly.

Thats really agressive. If they buy a lot of video cards, the prices might go down - which can be good for other people.

Miners are buying cards in droves, supply is down, prices are up. Cards are selling $200+ msrp right now.

Try up to 3X MSRP, not just +$200.

Mate guys like this buying prebuilts with a single graphics card aren't the reason prices are going up, it's people buying 10+ cards at a time to go into the makeshift mining farms they've setup in their dad's shed.

That's ridiculous, how can you blame someone for trying to make a bit of money? The onus is on manufacturers to equate demand with their supply, not blame those buying it.
