ebay question

i'm looking to buy a video card and this guy seems to be selling a whole lot of them.

many of the cards he sells are "new" and i don't know how he manages to get brand new cards and auction them off for so cheap.

well anyway ..go to the second page of his BUYER feedback and you see a guy named "yung10cm" based in Italy and who has bought 6 of these video cards and doesn't have a single feedback! There are other very new buyers too who have bought many cards but have very little or disproportionate feedback.

either "retek" doesn't leave feedback at all or there is something fishy going on.

any ideas?
 
I'd stay away from this guy myself. His "new" cards come with none of the accessories, none of the retail boxes, nothing. I'm betting he yanks these from Dells and HPs or something, he's probably a repair tech for some company. I bought a 9800 a few years back from some guy, he had yanked it from a Dell, replaced it with a much lower end card, and sold the 9800 on ebay. It had problems, and to fix it he transferred the whole warranty of the computer to me, ended up it was owned by a university out in Michigan or something.

So yeah, I'd be really careful with sellers like this, there's usually something fishy going on.

yeah there are no retail boxes at all and no accessories which is also striking.

Buying to me is the easy part. Selling is what I'm scared of. Idiot people buying things they do not know how to use etc
