There's a bunch of listings like these and I was under the impression gpus went for more, been checking for about a week now and still seeing these, just now started to contact sellers but wanted to get a scoop from a community, I would just trust ebay to get my money back if it's bad but I won't be able to test the card for a while as I kinda want to get the card first and build the pc around it

With the long sell times it is possible that they could be real bids technically, but I can guarantee they will not end up selling for less than the average sale. They absoullutely will spike in price as they get closer to the bid ending as is the nature of auctions.

If the bid doesn't go up enough the seller will use an alt account to buy their own sale and eat the ebay fee before relisting the same card.
