^hes saying the buyer can claim the box with the same serial number arrived, but was empty.

ie: you ship me a gpu i bought via ebay/paypal. it arrives but the box is empty, except for a 2lb paperweight (about what the gpu would have weighed). i send ebay/paypal a photo of the paperweight sitting inside a box that has the advertised serial number. clearly you shipped the advertised box, but theres no way to prove that it contained a gpu and not a paperweight

and i clearly said that i do a photo with the gpu inside the box showing the same code(SN) before i ship it, so he can't say shit like that

you could easily take that photo, then switch in a brick before mailing. (at least thats the buyers scam argument)

24" PCI-E cables with 16AWG wires and stripped ends - great for server PSU mods, best prices https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=563461

the best thing would be to do a video when you give the package to the courier with he package opened showing the gpu and evrything with he serial number

it's a bit of a pain in the ass but it's the only thing to do to avoid those scammers...

he can still claim that the gpu does not work..but at that point you can get it back i guess... never had such issue, anyway i'm not selling only there i actually prefer to sell on forum

Once bitten, twice shy.  If you don't want to heed the advice of people who have experienced exactly what you are saying is improbable, that is your choice. But don't think you're going to change the minds of people who have actually been screwed by said process.
