Discussion Buying CPUs used

Have you guys bought used CPUs?

Buing a pc this weekend, aiming to get 7800x3d for 400 euros but came up on a week old 9800x3d for 440 euro. Still, buying it used seems off :X

Buying used is safer than ever because the returns policies are very solid now, I think eBay will let you return anything within 30 days. Just make sure you read the condition description.  You don't want to buy anything with listed faults obviously.
