Why we think so

This eBay listing offers a PNY NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB OC Triple Fan graphics card for $720 plus shipping, sold by user "buybacksolionz." The seller has a small but active store (18 items), a feedback score of 100, and 299 units of this card reportedly sold. There is no strong evidence of scam or counterfeit activity associated with this seller in public channels or independent forums. The product details (model, specs, images) align with official PNY specifications. However, red flags include a "no returns" policy, lack of accessible buyer reviews, and low seller transparency. The price is fair, though not a deep discount, compared to EU retail. If you proceed, use eBay's official checkout and buyer protection, and inspect the GPU carefully upon delivery. ❗

🔎

Minimal third-party reputation

Almost no independent online discussion of this seller.
Feedback visible on eBay is generic and cannot be deeply verified.
Treat as you would an unknown or new seller; proceed with caution.

Contradictory Signals

Strong sales volume suggests history but the lack of transparent buyer reviews or recourse if something goes wrong is a real risk.

Signal A: Hundreds of units sold (299) imply past fulfillment and possibly satisfied buyers.

Signal B: No direct, item-specific feedback is visible and seller does not accept returns on this expensive item.

Red Flags & Warnings

  • No returns accepted on a high-value, open box electronics item—buyers have limited recourse if the product is not as described or faulty.
  • Minimal direct seller feedback and lack of off-eBay reputation or trust signals; feedback score alone can be padded or misleading.

🔎 Detailed Checks & Analysis

Seller Profile and History

Score: 50/100
Failed

"Seller feedback is technically positive but lacks context or breakdown by item category or recent sales."

Reason: Profile shows only basic details and a feedback score with no granular data on recent transactions or transaction types.

Listing Authenticity (Specs, Description, Product Info)

Score: 85/100
Passed

"All item characteristics (MPN, UPC, dimensions) match manufacturer data for the RTX 5070 Ti 16GB OC Triple Fan."

Reason: The card’s model number, part number, and detailed specs align with official PNY listings. Images and description do not show obvious inconsistencies.

Price Parity and Suspicious Discounting

Score: 75/100
Passed

"No unrealistically low pricing; $720 USD sits within global retail bands for official stock."

Reason: The listing price is in line with or slightly below (but not abnormally low relative to) EU retail for this new GPU, which reduces likelihood of classic bait-priced scam.

Feedback and Transaction Transparency

Score: 45/100
Failed

"Most feedback signals are aggregated and may combine buying and selling ratings."

Reason: Feedback score is positive but lacks recent, detailed buyer comments specific to GPUs or higher-value electronics, making risk assessment harder.

Return Policy and Fulfillment Risk

Score: 35/100
Failed

"eBay Money Back Guarantee covers only certain cases ('not as described') but not remorse or compatibility returns."

Reason: Seller does not accept returns, limiting your recourse if the item is not as described or is faulty. This is especially concerning for expensive hardware.

Counterfeit and Manipulation Checks

Score: 80/100
Passed

"Still, inspect for authenticity and serials on arrival; this product category historically sees some counterfeiting."

Reason: No direct evidence of counterfeit products associated with this seller or this item; official specs, model, and packaging match publically available manufacturer data.

Your Next Steps

  • 1
    Check the seller's feedback as a seller (not just overall) for any negative or neutral comments about GPUs or electronics.
  • 2
    After delivery, inspect the GPU for matching model/UPC, required accessories, and run software checks (GPU-Z, device manager) to confirm authenticity.
  • 3
    Pay only via eBay's checkout system to remain protected by the eBay Money Back Guarantee.
  • 4
    If anything seems suspicious or the item is not as described, escalate through eBay resolution promptly.
