Micro Center Criticized for Low Trade-In Offers on RTX 4090 GPUs

Micro Center's trade-in program offers just $700 for the high-end RTX 4090, significantly below its market value.

Micro Center's trade-in program is offering shockingly low values for the RTX 4090, with estimates as low as $700, which is less than half of the GPU's market price.
The RTX 4090, Nvidia's flagship GPU, is still considered the fastest on the market, with prices rising due to the AI boom and import restrictions.
Competitors like Newegg offer much higher trade-in values, up to $1,500, highlighting a stark contrast in trade-in program competitiveness.
Despite the low offer, the RTX 4090 remains highly sought after in the used market, with prices on platforms like eBay significantly exceeding the trade-in offer.
Experts suggest shopping around for better deals and consulting with hardware specialists before settling on trade-in offers.
