its a 1700+ cpu with overclocking enabled 

Ryzen 5 3600 stock | 2x16GB C13 3200MHz (AFR) | GTX 760 (Sold the VII)| ASUS Prime X570-P | 6TB WD Gold (128MB Cache, 2017)

Samsung 850 EVO 240 GB 

138 is a good number.

Myself, and the 5 other people that bought these would open a case and get our money back though right?

maybe the guy claims it was a 1700x, but was trying to make a quick buck and instead sells him a sempron or something.

I never know why people do this, no one is going to sell a newly released $270 CPU for $15.

Yep that's what i figure, That or since it was only listed a few minutes before being completely sold out it may have been a pricing error.

If they stole it they knew it was worth stealing and would sell for more than $15, was there any pictures of the CPU? From the pictures I've seen it clearly states RYZEN on the CPU lid so should be easy to identify - of course, they could of used review pictures

It's obviously an AMD athlon xp 1700.

That or a drawing/case badge.

Can we have a link to the ebay page for it? See the fine prints that says "not actually the CPU" ?

Two main possibilities

  1. Scam
  2. Legit seller but they accidentally entered the wrong price before taking it down. Look carefully for a relisting by the seller. 

From what I know, if you buy a product from a seller which is listed at a wrong price, they might actually give it to you xD It would be a huge loss for them though.....

The post was only up for 5 minutes max before selling out, so possibly they haven't relisted anything.

 

If it does pan out I'll have a 1700x in my Celestial Uprising build linked in my sig instead of a 1700.

You know the user can fill all that info in? eBay does it automatically but it can be edited.
