About £4000 on eBay uk right now. Because if they were any lower we’d all be buying six each.

Nvidia reuses numbers for workstation cards, so there's multiple vastly different 'RTX 6000' cards:

  Quadro RTX 6000 (Turing / 2080 Ti / 24GB @ 672.0 GB/s)
  RTX A6000 (Ampere / 3090 / 48GB @ 768.0 GB/s)
  RTX 6000 Ada (4090 / 48GB @ 960.0 GB/s)
  RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell (5090 / 96GB @ 1.79 TB/s)
For £4000 you were likely looking at RTX 6000 Ada listing.
