Is eBay just a hive of scams now? Try searching for a Mac Studio with 512gb of RAM for example. I know it's a highly sought after item, but there are so many sellers with 0 reviews supposedly selling these at suspiciously low prices. What's going on here?

I bought some dope weight lifting shoes last week. 46 bucks after shipping, 175 new. I’m pretty stoked on that. I was looking for a 3090 recently too and i did see the 0 rep sellers with buy it nows 10% under market value. That was a little sus. Nonetheless https://www.ebay.com/help/policies/ebay-money-back-guarantee... is a thing?
Same thing if you search for a PS5 Pro. And I have no idea how these aren’t taken down.
