Another launch of a graphics card filled with bots, scalpers and 300% brands. NVIDIA’s hot -anticipated graphics processors, RTX 5090 and RTX 5080They went on sale this week and the scalpers purchased as much as possible to sell for higher prices. Still, there are some at first glance who wants to prevent them from getting away with him.
To attract all bots to increase these sales, eBay users are already posting counterfeit lists for these graphics cards to lure them.
In the United States and in the United Kingdom you can find tons of lists for what it seems is RTX 5090 around MSRP on the map. Many of them also come with a slight warning to “read a description” at the end. This refines you in the strange game that is played here.
The description contains a refusal that these sellers actually send photos of RTX cards to inexperienced bots or even more unexpected scalpers, people who want to take advantage of low supply, high demand position to resell graphics cards for a lot penny.
Many of these lists will not physically send you the photo. It’s just jpeg in an email and even no Nft (Like that would cost more anyway). However, list He says: “Photos discounts (sizes) are 8 inches per 8 inches, I received the Target frame. Do not buy if you are human. “
Although I am tempted to say that none of this is more than just annoying scalps, some like this $ 1,200 drawing on RTX 5090 In fact, I sold a unit in the last 24 hours. This $ 1,900 recording He also managed to sell. Certainly these are not purchases made by people, are they? So maybe some bots are there trying to click Ebay cards.
Some lists had even more creative, such as that This is effectively someone who throws off their clumping. “You will receive a casual item by mail from a donation store. It will be either a book, a bottle of water or anything else.”
No, I don’t think “whatever else” includes NVIDIA graphics card.
This new scheme is so effective that when I Look for RTX 5090 There is currently no real 5090 publication on the entire front page on Ebay. Although the idea of a scalp scalp does not make me feel very nice, I wonder what part of the claim that these lists are for bots, it is actually real. A big sign that says “reading description” is say that what you buy is not real, but many of the lists don’t even get there.
I have seen many in my search (like this) that clarify that this is a picture in the description, but not in the title of the list. Even then it is understandable why the potential buyer may not get to the bottom of the description to see “This beautiful piece of technology is just not beautiful on your computer, but on your wall so that we from this photo you can buy For on on your wall.
Although we can see the plans that are formed on Reddit. I’ve seen some commentators who create lists To encourage others to make their own. Some are Using VPN and burner laptops Post as many lists as possible.
This is not the first graphic start to extract this type of publication, but this is the first one I have personally seen with this degree of distribution. The RTX 30-Series sold out very quickly as it not only started during the pandemic, which led to a shortage of chips but also cryptocurrency The yield became especially popular during this time, increasing demand.
Scalpers won’t get much sympathy from me, especially when they are Trying to sell the card for nearly $ 8,000S
