I saw this, does it look legit and should I buy it, clean it up, and resell?

Are you willing to gamble $210?

 

At the very least, you'd get that back just from the GPU.

I sold my soul for ProSupport.

I've seen listings like these before, they're usually fake. Given that it looks like it's shipping only (that could just be that I'm too far away for it to show local pickup as an option though), you'd probably be covered by FB Buyer Protection, but expect that you'll probably need to use it.

Says shipping only for me too... I'm pretty skeptical bc those are great specs for $210.

Id ask why none of the items this person is selling appear to be in the same house or ever in the same lighting.

 

Also, why are they selling a shirt with $100 shipping.

 

There’s other stuff that are immediate no-go criteria for me, but those are the big indicators for me.

$210 Dollars is a lot of money to gamble, I would advise to not buy this since a 3060 by itself is about 220. that is suspicious.
