Buying a second hand GPU

I was looking around a second hand online shop in my country when I saw a Palit Nvidia Geforce GTX 1060 6GB DDR5 for 160 euros. Now this seemed like a really good deal to me especially as the seller claimed that it's only 1 year old and has never been overclocked or used for mining.

 

I'm tempted to buy the GPU but i'm wondering are there any other things that I should pay attention to in order to ensure there's nothing wrong with it.

test it out in person I guess

15 minutes in furmark should validate stability

 

Ryzen 5 3600 stock | 2x16GB C13 3200MHz (AFR) | GTX 760 (Sold the VII)| ASUS Prime X570-P | 6TB WD Gold (128MB Cache, 2017)

Samsung 850 EVO 240 GB 

138 is a good number.
