I meant beg for a free one lol, I'm assuming 60GB to 128GB is pretty achievable for sub $10.

where i am it is absolutely not but also i am not living in the best of places. with the current AI crisis for i would wager that for 128GB anything below 30$ is a scam but your mileage may vary. begging works but it's really time inefficient too and the results are not that great. begging for money is probably better than begging for parts.
