$12,895, says 04... *ding!*


Now, you must have another item, Announcer, right?

Sure thing! It's a brand new UTV!


The Predator 400-XL comes with a four-stroke single-cylinder 25-horsepower engine, continuously variable transmission, and front and rear suspension!

gamesurf, play or pass?

I’d love one, but I have no idea how to price it... let’s pass.

$6,789 says sequential Numbers... *ding!*


Two down, and the third's coming right now!

It's a brand new GPU!


Assuming you have a compatible computer, this brand new GPU from Nvidia has 48 gigabytes of GDDR6 synchronous DRAM, 4,608 CUDA cores, and allows for complex ray tracing and deep learning!


gamesurf, I hope you work in IT, else, I'm seeing this getting passed...

I don't work in IT, but I do know a little bit about GPUs, and it's tempting to pick this one--but the range of options it could realistically be is so broad I just can't make a guess.

Pass, please! Crossing my fingers for something easier...

I've worked with GPUs a bit but have never priced them, so I must pass.

If I actually decide to do episode 3, I know that I'm theming the entire thing except for a recycled showcase. You'll like the theme if it happens, because it's so common, that I'm surprised no one else has ever attempted it  :-D

tpiradam, you must bid on the GPU within 24 hours, else you will get replaced.

I don't even know what that thing is so I'll say $800.

...Well, that is a number. $800 it is. *ding!*


Three down, two to go. What is gamesurf's final vantage point?

It's a lovely digital camera!


In the world of digital cameras nowadays, you're either a Nikon guy or a pirate - because you shoot with a Canon. Or you're a scrub that just uses their phone to take photos of everything. However, this 20.8 megapixel DSLR Nikon D6 supports 14 frames per second of continuous shooting, an ISO as high as 102,400, and 4K UHD! It's powerful AF system will allow you to capture every moment to its fullest!

gamesurf, last chance to not be pegged with the last item.

That system sounds powerful AF

But I'm gonna pass on it, 9821.

Clarification question before I bid: this doesn't come with a lens, correct? It's just the body?

Yes, it is just the body. No lens.
