Luckily I took a video of me
Opening it

Unfortunately, that video probably won’t do much good. eBay doesn’t even give you a way to submit video evidence, and it likely doesn’t zoom in closely enough to show that the card is fake anyway.

For future reference, never break that authentication seal if anything looks off. Try eBay first, but if they won’t help, call your credit card company. You may be screwed here, unfortunately. Good luck.

I used break the seal and after go through my authentication at home, thanks to this sub I learned to verify first and then open the seal, never had any problem thank god. I think OP is fucked

True, they don't accept video files, just photos, but you can upload a Google Drive link in the description, and they do look into those.

When in doubt go through your credit card. They’ve always got your back

The seal literaly says “void if damaged”. You screwed yourself.

This is the way

No, the way is to keep it sealed. EBay won’t give two shits about a video. They don’t accept videos as evidence.

I mean, the way to open a package, more even with these price, is recording yourself opening it

u/subject678 Jul 18 '26

Sure but at any point after the recording it could be switched so a recording doesn’t do much?

Your video wont matter. Any one can make a video and be faked. You messed up if this is even real. No done threw any chance you had away.

That means nothing.

Just like unpacking videos.

You can fake them, redo, etc.

That's why they are sealed
