Hmm.. that's kinda weird. Anyone seen this?

Same thing happened with the 980xs. I suspect those are sample models AMD sends to various test sites in China, Korea, Japan and Europe. I would stay away seeing as how they are 1) overpriced 2) not the final product 3) ebay sellers are BS.

in 5 days you should be able to get a 1090t for that price.

and it would be legal that way.

they may well be legit. If they go on sale in 5 days, the they are probably in the hands of some retailers already. No reason not to wait 5 more days though.

almost certainly genuine chips, but im pretty sure its still illegal to sell them before the launch date.

Not a fan of ebay myself. Or should I be?
In any case, I think takers would be those who can not wait and want to proclaim "I got it first..."
Good luck to them. As for me, I think it will be a while before I see that shadow of an X6 where I am.

well, technically its not sold till it arrives, consider this a pre-order item.
Typical delivery time will be 5-9 working days (Not Guaranteed) to Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Netherlands, New Zealand, Spain, UK, USA,
Last time I pre-ordered an item, I recieved it on the release day, not shipped on that day, so vendors can sell them ahead of time, just not supposed to be in the end-user's hand till its released.

I think its legit..some countries in the east already have em on sale..

They were already released in china so it probably is legit however its way overpriced I think the 1055 is supposed to be $199.99 US and by the time you get it shipped from Hong Kong it will already have been released here.
