Sold on craigslist for $949, $1 under the list price.

2.66 GHz Quad
12 GB RAM
Radeon 4870 + NVidia 7300GT
6GB ESATA card
1TB HDD (straight out on my new 6-core)
Apple wired keyboard
Brand new Magic Mouse​

I suppose I should be happy with this (after getting low-balled by scam artists who thought they could land this package for under $600, including gazelle.com who offered $350). Didn't get one bid on ebay at the starting price of $799. Score one for craigslist!

Great job! Congratulations, George! Wow! Love the resale values on those.

I still haven't bought my 12 core...but will once we get the budget sorted out. Unfortunately it's a $1200 extra for 2.66 over the base 2.4!

I hadn't thought about this but I wonder if we'll be seeing 2 threads per core when the refresh comes? That might be a reason for waiting....but 2013 is so far away!
 
We're heavily into video with NUKE and After Effects, in addition to 3D rendering. We're hoping to render way faster than now.

Just go for it! I bet you will be able to get at least 50% of what you paid for it 2-3 years from now. My late 1,1 is still a rocking machine for the guys who bought it from me (a couple of super nice Cambodians who are trying to start a wedding photo/video business).
