true, but I think he just didn't realize that when posting the photos of the item, no one could then verify them as new :/
it's a catch 22. Some people here demand "photographic proof!" of items being sold, however in doing so you can't claim they are "new".
It's ridiculous
truth is, many here who require "photo evidence" and then badmouth those who don't provide it are some form of law enforcement looking for proof of criminal activity. It's why they are so adamant to get a photo of some sort, and they will badmouth the seller if they won't provide it.
You almost have to provide a photo- which is ridiculous, when a solid escrow is far better. No one needs a photo.
This processor is awesome btw, and I'd buy it if I had a mobo to use it in-
