I'm considering purchasing a used RX 6800 for €250 and a used RX 6800 XT for €270. However, I'd have to pay for shipping on the RX 6800 XT. Given these prices, which graphics card would be the better option for my setup with an i5-10500?

The RX 6800 XT generally offers around 15% better performance compared to the RX 6800, which is a decent boost for just €20 more. If you can swing it, the XT might be worth the extra cash especially since it's just a small price difference.
Have you checked the pricing for a new RX 9060 XT 16GB? If it's not too much more than the used cards, that could be a better option. It might be more future-proof and comes with full warranty, unlike the used ones.
The cheapest new one I found is €390, and there aren't any used ones available locally unless they're part of pre-built PCs.
