Gaudi 2 rumoured $700-900 module price is a stale 2025 liquidation echo - not on eBay Oct-2026

Planning docs and community threads carry a '$700-900 used Gaudi 2 module' figure that does not appear in any Oct-2026 eBay listing - actual asks are $1,499-2,700.

The $700-900 number is a 2025-era liquidation echo that kept circulating after the market repriced. Intel winding the line down pushed the remaining supply back up, not down.

Budget $1,500-2,700 for the bare module, plus the chassis problem (gotcha-gaudi2-oam-only-no-pcie-sku-chassis-required). Do not plan a build around the stale figure.

Observed prices 2026-10-03..14: HL-225 $2,500, HL-225H $2,700, PC-07784-01-GP3 $1,499-1,745. 8x-Gaudi2 Supermicro tray $11,995.
