looks like new and it works pwrfectly even overclocked @ 4.1Ghz with 1.35v!!!
So right off the bat. Postage took longer then it should, but I do think it was more of a local issue then the seller being at fault. The seller did get the item away in a timely fusion, thanks. Just the truth so thought would mention. As for the CPU, I couldn't fault at all. It looked new or at least close enough, maybe the equivalent of being installed once and having the heat paste removed. But really getting down to the picky now. Was presented well, and protected. It even worked, all core and threads and passed bench mark with flying colours. So if you wanna save a $, and are prepared to wait due to the logistics of world events, and have your own CPU cooler. This seller will fill that need.
