For sale is my Samsung PM981a 512GB M.2 NVME Solid State Drive. This was part of a family computer that has since been retired. I cleaned the drive contents with a long format and DISKPART CLEAN command. It will need to be formatted again when you receive it. Any questions? Don't hesitate to ask.

SHIPPING AND PURCHASE TERMS

Due to increasing amounts of fraudulent buyers using freight forwarders, buyers suspected to be using a freight forwarder will be scrutinized for fraudulent activity, and will require an admission in eBay messages that a freight forwarder is being used for that order. I reserve the right to cancel and refund orders using freight forwarders in order to protect myself from potential fraud.

Item serial number will be recorded if present.

Signature confirmation will be required on all sales of $750 or more.

International buyers READ THIS: International shipping for most countries will be handled by eBay international shipping services. Otherwise it will be shipped with an appropriate USPS, UPS, or FedEx service. Keep in mind, I cannot change customs value of the item and I cannot mark it as gift. Import duties, taxes, and charges aren't included in the item price or postage cost for items not shipped with eBay international shipping. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or buying.
