Pretty interesting - claiming retail-level capability which is cool. Around $850 for me shipped which is pretty good. Not my auction, just thought it was interesting!

Yet they get sold all the time anyway. Clearly AMD, Nvidia and Intel really don't care that badly. No warranty or support is the real price you pay for buying these cards anyway.

Not much in the way of savings to make the risk worthwhile

I think some people like to collect them for some reason, personally I wouldn't buy one.

I wouldn't buy a gpu or anything pricey on ebay

Not worth the risk.

The only time I bought something expensive on eBay. It turned out to be a scam, but fortunately law enforcement was monitoring those people and intercepted. My money order before it got there and then sent it back to me

In my opinion it's a bad move to buy anything valuable on ebay
