bought a used PSU from an amazon seller

I bought a "used-like new" Seasonic PSU for my computer from an amazon marketplace seller. It arrived today, looks fine, box a bit tatty but that's to be expected. Thing is I noticed there is a red "TEST" sticker on the side of the box, a small sticker about 2cm square with "TEST" in black.
I'm a bit concerned about this as I'm wondering if there's been a problem with it and it needs testing for safety. The seller has 93% feedback.

I think you should contact the seller and ask them.0

Personally, I would think it's just a sticker that was stuck on when the PSU was tested in the factory. Does it look newer than the rest of the PSU?If it sticks, force it.
If it breaks, well it wasn't working right anyway.0 -
It's almost certainly a quick check from the factory. I've seen plenty of PSU with those on them.0
