Sorry........ebay thread...

Hi,

I ordered a Mining Motherboard off Ebay almost 2 weeks ago, the buyer was listed as Litchfield and postage estimated as 11th October

The 11th came and went, nothing.

Tracking info pops up and it's coming from China!?

The tracking does actually get the board to notts via FedEx then out for delivery today.

I've not received it and nor have the neighbours.

Is this likely a dodgy scam where nothing was attempted to be delivered?

Hopefully Ebay will help?

thanks

There's quite a bit of 'today' left before immediately jumping to 'scam' surely?

Time for me to notice that I answered the door and signed for it in my sleep?

What?

If it's "out for delivery" today, why would you assume it's a scam because it hasn't turned up by lunchtime? It might just turn up later today?

"Out for delivery" doesn't mean "delivered"

Sorry I should have added, it's marked as delivered at 11am today. But my Wife and are are WFH, no knocks on door or packages thrown in Wheelie bins etc

There's a bit on their website that pops up a PDF of "proof" but it doesn't show much. No signature scan etc

I'm leaning towards scammed......

But then the Ebay tracking still shows as out for delivery, could Fedex have dropped it with another courier? that seems weird?

The proof of delivery PDF has SIGNED FOR BY *my name* CVD

CVD? courier van driver?

I guess they wouldn't be able to show scans of signatures since we don't sign anymore. don't wanna catch the plague off their pen

oh yeah....

it's been a long day.....

So looking at the Proof of delivery PDF, it's dated from August! and the weight is 18KGS! bit heavy for a Motherboard....

SO IT DID ACTUALLY ARRIVE IN THE END, AND i'LL TURN cAPS OFF NOW....

But, it doesn't appear to work.....

Plugged the PSU in, SSD drive via SATA, but it just beeps at me then nothing...

CPU is built in and I've tested it with 2gig memory and 8 gig memory. Got a 4gig stick coming today to test whether it can only take 4...
