I would think they'd stabilize around Athlon 1000 Slot A prices (80-120€), being uncommon but not rare/impossible to find/prototypes.
That is, if I allowed myself to think about things that heave clearly no predictable behaviour, like CPU prices 😉

Hmm, I have that card sitting in its box in the attic. Might be time to loose it...

Edit: and no, I'm not offering it for sale here. If I really decide to part with it, I'll likely use ebay, since that's where the crazies are 😉

How much normally such card would be worth without box but working?

Last one I bought unboxed was back in May 2017 for $71 + shipping. That was for a backup of the one I purchased brand new from a store back when 3dfx was still around.

Prices have gotten stupid as of late.

The usual eBay prices go for boxed around 150USD and bare card around 100USD.

I sold two v5 5500 agp cards this year, cards only. One sold for 130 euro and one for 100 euro, both in good working condition and original fans. I sold them locally so not on ebay.

I think a boxed one will reach around 175-200 euro. I have a Boxed V5 Pci mac edition (not for sale) that would probably reach 250-300 by now?

voodoo2's are also still going up up up up here...

EDIT (29.12.): Wow, and somebody bought it. I'm stunned...

Someone is going to need to explain this to me.

You pay 56000 and get 900 back. Sounds a lot better right?
