I've seen this come up on eBay recently: https://www.ebay.com/itm/EVGA-GeForce-GTX-1080/253423376786?hash=item3b0135d992:g:yl0AAOSw5nxagYkM
 
Is this to good to be true? Or because they're outside the US pricing is different?

    As the old saying goes. If it is to good to be true, it probably is.

    It is a scam, I have bid on a low price GPU similar to that and ebay shortly took down the listing saying the account is compromised. Most of these low price GPU listings on ebay are down withing a few hours because ebay removed them for this reason. In the current market, if it is new, it will not be below MSRP. Only way to get a decent price right now is in the used market but that is still a crap-shoot.
