What's your process for quickly ruling out risky RAM listings on eBay?

Buying used RAM can be a bit of a rabbit hole. Two listings might have the same price and the same advertised specs but once you start looking closer, you notice things don't always add up. Sometimes the title says one thing, the photos show another or the description leaves out important details. Thats why i want to ask experienced buyers how do you filter listings before they even think about buying. Like what's your personal checklist?

  • Do you start with the seller or the listing itself?
  • How much do original photos matter compared to stock images?
  • Do you always verify the part number on the label?
  • Are there certain words in a description that make you move on immediately?
  • How important is a return policy when buying used RAM?

Have you ever caught something that saved you from buying the wrong module? I'm interested in hearing the little checks people have developed over time sometimes they're not obvious until you've been burned once.
