Just want to put it out there, people should be careful buying PC parts on amazon during the time leading up to Black Friday. In the past three to four days I've seen three different types on scams on AMD CPUs and GPUs. Always check to see the seller. See who's selling and who's shipping. Check the seller history and make sure the store front wasn't just created recently. Good Luck finding those DEALS.

Portable SSDs are/were listed on Amazon UK recently, 11Tb for about 60 quid? Yeah right, even if you could get 11Tb disks it wouldn't be that cheap

These were even Sponsored links from Amazon, so they're well aware that scammers are selling on there

Yeah those should be flagged at scams automatically, way out of curve on price per TB. Yet sponsored dollars keep them around for the scammer whack a mole.
