Ebuyer ripping me off over RMA, what to do?

Deductions don't have to be linear. Especially with electronics which tend to lose most of their value in the first year or two.

I certainly wouldn't buy from them though - given past threads on here it seems ebuyer will refund even when the manufacturer is offering to repair/replace.




Why would anyone buy a failed graphics card?

Why not ask the people buying them on Ebay?

People typically dont buy broken graphics cards - not unless they've been watching one of those many videos who claim you can fix x item by doing something really simple (and rarely if ever works). Maybe worth a punt if you were going to bin it and ebay has free listings offered but otherwise, a waste.

Plus undoubtedly ebuyer will want to return the gpu to get their refund from the manufacturer so I can't see them giving it up.

Anyway, 2nd hand non-faulty cards are available for ~£150 (which by my calculations is just slightly more than ebuyer are offering the OP).
