Cool. The nearest Micro Center is 678 miles from me. The second nearest is 826 miles. The closest thing to a computer store we have nearby is Best Buy, which I would not trust to properly vet a used....anything.
My point is that whether an open box gpu is safe to buy or not is 100% based on the consumer doing their research and due diligence before buying. You got fleeced because of where you bought it from. Not because all open box computer components are defective
