Lets me retire the last of my 4tb drives.

I have a nice retirement resort for them if you're looking.

Not sure if they'll take offers, but I'd explore this one if I were in the market: Seagate HGST IBM Hitachi 6TB 3.5" SAS Server Hard Drives Enterprise 12G DELL Lot | eBay

Am I missing something or are they really asking $70/ea for untested no-refunds 6TB SAS drives? I know it says "lot" but I don't see a quantity anywhere.

I've been scouring the net for 10TB drives and haven't found anything I'd consider reasonable. I've run out of spares and have multiple drives that are on their way out. I've resorted to spinning up some old 3TB drives, striping them, and adding them to the array as a spare for the 10TB drives.

Looks like what they are offering.
It likely used to be a okay deal by the amount of sales, how old listing is and how many price changes listing has had.

And they are indeed not selling lots, their excuse will be that they are splitting up a lot or selling alot of drives if asked.
(But ofc the goal is just to get into search results of those searching for lots)

There is no such thing as "no refunds" on an eBay item marked as "Used":

The item may have some signs of cosmetic wear, but is fully operational and functions as intended.

The seller does not accept returns, which means they don't want you to send the drive back, but if it does not work, eBay will refund your money.

this really sucks. i should've picked up a bunch more of these 10-14TB ones last year ;(.

now heard that new cpu prices are also going up. This was the last thing that hasn't gone up. I guess my stock of gold 61xx cpu and maybe even 26xx v2, v3, v4 might see some new light too? lol...

The best way to bring prices back down is for people to stop buying. But, as usual, it's the poor who suffer the most.

The STH effect: can't ever stop buying...lol
