I was just wondering if anybody on here had an advice or experience buying graphics cards on Alibab.com. I want to buy some to mine with but the prices seem too good to be true. One specific company was Shenzhen Dovina Electronic Technology Co. They have some reviews and are trusted by the website, I'm just trying to get some second opinions on this. Thanks!

If prices are too good to be true it's probably because you have a minimum order quantity (e.g. 100 GPUs)

I usually edit my posts immediately after posting them, as I don't check for typos before pressing the shiny SUBMIT button.

I wouldnt recommend buying cards from these sellers. An example being that you could buy a "900" series Nvidia card from wish.com but in tests, it shows that it was like a 500 series or so. There is a youtube video showing this and even if they show a gpu-z image, dont trust it as they could just change it.

Overall, as Eibe said, if the price is too good to be true, dont buy it.

I would also be wary of FOB prices, which most sellers there use. That means Free On Board, which means they pay to get the product to the port. You gotta pay to get it from their country of origin to you, and pay import fees. They also almost all deal in just USD, so conversion fees may have to be paid as well. So the deal isn't always as good as it seems.
