Sell your Intel Xeon E5-2673 v3.

The part, in brief

Why it’s worth selling, not shelving

These ex-hyperscaler parts are wanted precisely because they’re cheap cores by the tray, retired in enormous numbers by the big cloud operators. It sits right at the top of the demand we track, which means it’s exactly the kind of part we compete hardest to win. If it’s coming out of service, it’s worth a number before it goes in a drawer.

What moves the price

• Tray vs boxed — a boxed retail unit with its documentation is worth more than a bare tray chip; both sell.
• Quantity and matching — matched pairs and larger single-SKU lots price better per chip than singles.
• Condition — bent socket pins and heat-spreader damage matter; tell us and the number holds on inspection.
• The wider market — prices move; the sooner you send the list, the firmer the figure.

What to send us

The model (Intel Xeon E5-2673 v3), the quantity, and whether they’re tray or boxed. A pasted line from a spreadsheet is perfect. That’s enough for a real number inside a working day.
