A Reddit user says a Best Buy order for an ASUS TUF GeForce RTX 5080 ended with a box of rocks instead of a $1,200 graphics card. The buyer placed the order on 25 November and received it on 28 November. According to his post, the card shipped with shipping labels stuck directly to the retail GPU box, no outer brown carton, and a seal that already looked tampered with.
Eh, I do think it’s a worthwhile article, because it highlights that retailers should be using plain boxes for shipping high value items, and also advises that people open high value items on video, just in case.
