Topic: Spot the scam (GPU) (Read 734 times)
All the details are on display before the buyer commits. In this case the buyer accepted the terms. (I see $350.) As long as the seller behaves within the guidelines of their own listing and sends a legitimate card, then there is no scam. Besides, there's eBay buyer protection if the seller doesn't follow through.
well anyway i would not define +350 usd for shipping or shipping and handling a scam... ppl sells for profit.... scam is if they dont send you or send a brick or something not related to the contract of sale
I'm on the East Coast USA and it's $350 shipping for me. There's definitely safer looking deals on eBay, that's for sure. lol
I guess if you are in USA its $20 but if you got an international location its $350.
Still don't understand the scam here.
Plus if you charge $350 for shipping and the receiver sees that you only actually paid $20, he will just file a paypal claim and get the difference refunded.
If you charge $350 for shipping + handling then its ok, I guess since you can say the handling is worth $330 to you.

If it is true 350 $ for international shipping, this is very crazyWho would dare pay such a fee?
And what kind of shipping mode uses that much cost?
For myself it is impossible to dare to pay such a large fee
this is scam man!
Here is what I see out west(US):
1) Shipping and handling $350 (!)
2) 10 business days handling time after cleared receipt of payment. (note: it could take 2 weeks to get this card.)
3) No returns (click on details).
So I think the scam is that this person is just going down to the local computer emporium, paying $779 + tax and shipping you the card.
I think you might have a tough time canceling because they were upfront with the terms and if they send you identical item they have honored their side of the deal.
Best case: you could have $1k tied up for a month + your time.
Perhaps it's a US only scam?

I'm actually not in the US. but he surely does have some kind of a trick up his sleeve. Still don't understand the scam here.

So for this one, I think the scam is that the packaging says 1 dongle nothing about the card itself
