I’ve been assembling computers since I was 17 and am now 32. I considered upgrading from my i9 9900kf to an i9 12900k. I searched for discounts like others and checked Ebay. When the processor arrived, I was shocked to see it scratched on the gold medallion. It felt like a ghost story among fellow tech lovers. I contacted the seller, who claimed it was an automated response from Ebay. I’m hoping you’re more savvy than me and can find good deals on fragile PC components. I spent $488 and am counting on Ebay to return the money. Stay cautious when hunting for bargains.

I’ll check if you captured pictures before or while opening the package. If you did, that provides strong proof. I know your situation is tough, but you’ll need to present a clear argument on eBay and detail every aspect if you want your refund. There are many scammers on eBay, so staying vigilant is key, though sometimes you still face challenges.

I captured photos while I was opening it. I also realized lessons from the past. An update: they said they’d do a return after we had some disagreements. I’m sure, there are plenty of scammers out there. I’m curious—will they use Intel’s old processors and resell them? Thanks for your response and guidance.
