Apparently thats the RTX 3080 10GB version, amazon US has t for like $850, I see it a bit expensive for an used card, unless its like new.

Like, in BIOS? Thats normal, it shouldn't be an issue.

Up to you really, IMO it would be hard to pass if you find a good deal, but I am very suspicious of used GPUs, specially now that the crypto is on the down and people are selling their cards before they get even lower. Usually cards used for crypto work at 100% for months or even years without a break.
