A savvy consumer’s suspicions have paid off after he bought an expensive graphics card and insisted on opening it at the retailer’s pick-up point. There was supposed to be an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti inside, but what he found was just… a bottle of water.
As reported by Tech SK, the incident took place in Russia, with this high-end graphics card retailing for about $1,125 domestically. With a purchase that valuable, the buyer was clearly on edge and didn’t want anything to go wrong.
