don't know what to tell you.
I've bought used equip (and even 1 used mobo) that I've never had a problem with. I've bought some used gear that I had a problem with but no problem doing an RMA and having it repaired for free.
I've sold several mobos and no one had problems with them.
I've never dealt with GA RMA, but both EVGA and ASUS are relatively painless.
Personally, I'd buy the new board cause I like having the warranty, but if the money is too much the used board should do the trick
