4090 Asus GPUs - How to know which are new and which are refurbished?

[I_Am_Hollow]

Hi,

This may be a silly question but out of the GPUs Overclockers sells, how can I tell which are new and which have been used/refurbished?

I bought a 4090 GPU from Amazon and I had to return it as it was simply not working. I found out it was refurbished and as such, I want to avoid getting anything other than a brand new GPU.

I am confused on the prices of some of the GPUs as they seem quite low - they are excluding VAT so maybe that it's? Anyways, will a used GPU always have a grade e.g. B Grade beside their listing?

Many thanks for the help!

Anything you buy from OC is new, unless it is from the Clearance section.

OC also gets some good deals on GPU's so prices as seen

Yes.

I bought a 4090 GPU from xxx and I had to return it as it was simply not working. I found out it was refurbished and as such, I want to avoid getting anything other than a brand new GPU.

If you buy from that place, especially from a third party seller, then you can unfortunately get grey market stuff rather easily, even if it's actually labelled as new and sold by themselves.

Never recieved anything from OCUK that wasn't brand new unless I got it from clearance and it was clearly marked as refurbished etc.
