If it looks too cheap to be true then it probably isn't true. But then again, I do not mind having a cheaper chip even if it is 'recycled' provided it works. There is the moral issue of course, of the chip being unclearly represented. To be honest, even if the chip was classed as recycled, I might still buy it, provided it works.
I know! I still cannot break the habit of buying at least two,, just in case one doesn't work. More likely, just in case I break one. After 35 years working I ended up with a large about of 'stuff' left over from designs because of this. It all went into a yellow WEE (or is it WEEE?) skip when I retired. It was a shame but who wanted 20 year old out of date components.
