GPU Swap 12-15-2023, 04:50 PM

Hello,
A quick question for those who tried this method or have any insight into it.
I have a faulty 3080 GPU, and I was thinking of ordering the same make and model, from Ebay, and swapping them. I would change the SN and return it as faulty. Does that sound stupid or could it work?
Thanks
Update: Did the swap. They requested pictures before they'd accept the return. Sent them. They're saying they have pictures of the item prior to shipping it and that they don't match mine. "The screws and two resistors are in different positions in my pictures" - which...they aren't. I checked thoroughly. I'll keep pushing them to see what happens.
