  Quick search on FB Marketplace. Search "2080 Super" and then click the "Sold" filter to see recently sold items. Do the same for ebay.

  Estimate more than $1k. Possibly up to $1.2K if your buyer is desperate enough to buy one, minus 10 percent final value fee if you're using eBay without seller promo

    Cool thanks for that. Sounds like I could sell it, pay a little on top and get a new 3070 with slightly better performance. Probably a smart move in the current market…

  Is it worth selling a 2080 Super to a miner for a 30 series LHR card for non mining workloads?

  3070 ~ 2080 Ti, so unless you're getting a 3080 or 3090, it's not going to be huge upgrade.

  From what I understand the 2080 Supers have decent hash rate and the second hand market is quite highly inflated, wondering if I could upgrade for free or cheaply and get a better 30 series card.

  They're not great - probably around 40 MH/s, compared to a 3060 Ti or 3070 which will get 60 MH/s.

  Where's the best place to track what price second hand cards are selling for?

  eBay.

  That being said, my hunch is that you'd probably get ~ $1k for your 2080 Super. You might pay ~$1.2k for a 3070 LHR, so it's $200 more for a marginal performance bump. Only you can figure out whether it's worth it.
