Thanks for continuing to post these deals ca3y6.
Just a quick note about this one though, the seller seems to have provided an incorrect product number (the image shows E1.S form-factor PM9A3 drives):

Shame too, because I've been hoping for a good deal on some PM983 3.84TB/7.68TB drives.
Too many eBay sellers these days are posting incorrect info and/or wrong pics. I've had to return far too many items because of this. Fortunately eBay policies make this easy so other than being a waste of time, no harm done. But still, I can't help but wonder why they do this. They lose sales, lose money paying for return shipping and most likely receive bad feedback for their troubles. But having said this, my last purchase, 2 factory sealed Shuttle DH370's did not disappoint and at $143 delivered were and excellent deal. So I'll keep rolling the dice.
The plus side is how them listing stuff badly often leads to great deals also.
Alot of my best deals is from them mislabeling, not understanding what it is, not including addons etc
Got a supermicro 2u with 9x8tb, bezel, rails, i think it was 256gb ddr4 and some nics for 400$ yesterday.
Listed with just appliance name and specs showing in pictures, but no effort to list it correctly.
Some nutanix branded supermicros with 192gb ddr4 2x 32gb teslas and 3nics.
200$/ea as again no effort made to list the specs properly.

yeah, got lucky also once. But those deals are hard to find in any automated way. For an SSD you would need to do some sort of OCR on the label, if you can locate it. And then with all the stickers, low resolution, weird angles, OEM versions, and the 40 other numbers appearing on a sticker, not sure how many can be processed automatically. And you need to be quick. Some deals go within minutes of being posted. So those great deals are reward for people who are ready to really put in the time.
A few months ago on reddit there was a guy sharing a story of receiving the wrong server from Dell. But the one he received was packed with 24 60TB SSD. He called Dell who told him that unfortunately they couldn't locate his server, and asked if he wouldn't mind keeping whatever he received from them. He helpfully obliged!
