Questions to ask the seller:
Is the graphics card fully functional and working?
Any crashes or artifacting?
Has it been used for mining, and for how long?
How long have you owned it, and are you the first owner?
Where was it purchased?
Has it ever been opened, repaired, BIOS flashed, or had pads or paste replaced?
Does it still have a warranty?
Is there any rust or damage, and are the fans working properly?
What temperatures do you see in a light benchmark and in a normal game?
So sit back, relax, and have a GREAT day!
