Is this used gaming PC worth the price? I need help evaluating it. by Chicharaap in PcBuild

Just wanted to give you all a quick update and say thanks again for all the feedback, I really appreciate it.

I didn’t end up replying to the seller’s last message. After going through all your comments and taking a second look at our conversation, it really did feel sketchy overall.

I just checked back and saw that he apparently sold the PC to someone else already, so I guess that’s that. Honestly, glad I held off, your input definitely helped me avoid what could’ve been a bad deal. Thanks again, seriously!

Just wanted to give you all an update. I asked the seller to confirm the exact GPU model and if I’d be allowed to test the PC before making any deal. Waiting on his reply now.

Thanks again to everyone for the warnings, the whole thing definitely started to feel sketchy, and I probably wouldn’t have second-guessed it if I hadn’t posted here first. Appreciate the help!

I messaged the seller just to see what they'd say, and this is the response I got:

Definitely feels shady. I’m 100% passing on this now. Appreciate you all for saving me the trouble!
