In general, who cares where it has been. Unless banged up or with grease dripping from it. Most likely bought by someone that knew something about high end audio. I guess if it is from an inner city pawn shop… I would be hesitant.
Absolutely. No moving parts. The preamp is the heart of a system. So leveraging your purchasing power by buying used is a great way to go. A good preamp will last many decades… Actually I have the first integrated amp I purchased in 1972. Still works.
