You'll probably get a plain box, with the zotac stuck on it, with a brick inside. Or maybe some old GPU.

Either way, you wont get the real deal and you'll have to refund. Or maybe eBay catches onto this and does it before it ships out.

Hopefully it's just a working but old GPU. You can then get your money back - and keep that POS. *shrug*

I don't understand why would anyone waste 45€ on that ... you clearly won't get what you are hoping for, so why waste even those 45€?

Not sure how it is with ebay returns/refunds since I only order cheap sh1t from them and never had any problems.

a lot to unpack there, but the "condition: new" is the absolute giveaway that you're not getting what you're expecting, no way in hell.

These scams are common on sites like ebay. You will most likely just get the box of which the GOU was originally in. There mignt be some old GPU such as a GT210, HD 5450, something with an extremely low VRAM capactity that runs games like crap. Honestly, older GPUs can be good for retro PC builds, but paying 45 euros for the box+old GPU is not a good deal, considering that most older GPUs are really cheap on the used market.

 

E.g. Lets buy an i3-8350k for $20, package arrives, I got a pentium D.

Could be, that would make the price about right.

But probably just a scam ^_^

even if it's used it wouldn't be anywhere near that price. i doubt even the cooler alone would be that cheap.

yes but it could have a problem, be from a miner that used it like crazy for example. What i meant is brand new this is absolutely impossible to be a legit sale. Maybe a zero missing, but even that makes no sense for a 45 euro sale. 450? 4500?

Whoever sell that box will regret though, as this card has bad VRM cooling and he will find himself without the box to RMA the card :D

And hopefully, I'd be able to add a nice box to my collection if nothing else.

How amusing, the listing has been removed.

That actually makes it difficult to report anything through eBay.

However I opened a case on PayPal.

 

That's a shame.

I was hoping this would be a little more exciting.
