I would never pay double the original MSRP for a used/refurbished card, sorry but that's a horrible deal.

looks fine, but that GPU is WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY over MSRP, MSRP for new is ~$180 and MSRP for used is under $150. If you are ok with that then it looks fine.

Would it be good for longevity tho? Like this was one of the lowest prices for nvidia cars that wasn't under 1080

I get that its a "scalpped" price but it's better than paying $1k for a 3060 right? and I could upgrade to a 3060 in the future right?

If I had to guess it's leftover mining stock being resold. I wouldn't touch it at that price even if it was brand new in box.

haha, sure. You can upgrade to a 3060. But if you really commit, you CAN get a 3060. It took me ~5 days to get one at MSRP from bestbuy.

Yes, you can. You can get it around $20-$30 from Key resellers.
