Buying dell desktop tower on ebay

After much research and advice from this forum. I have decided to buy a new dell tower. Will be checking deals on Black Friday. Is eBay a good place to buy.? Saw this on eBay, bidding is going at £280 now + plus postage £7.59. Vostro 3470 SFF Desktop PC Intel i5-8400 2.8GHz - 8GB RAM 256GB SSD W10 NEW. Condition is New. The seller has 100% positive. Dispatched with eBay delivery – Packlink 1 day. Same item on laptop direct website is £529. Have checked dell website as would rather buy from dell but could not find one with 256 ssd, 8 gb and DVD drive. Would appreciate some advice. Thanks

  • Same thing available for £375BIN on Ebay, supplier Ebuyer - good company, far better if there's any problems with the machine.
