Hi Yanni666 ,
This certainly has nothing to do with ADI, thus perhaps this is a wrong forum? Anyway, those seem to be "refurbished" components. While it is good that functional components are recycled and reused, it is not OK if they are sold as new. Where did you buy them from? If you wish to play safe, use only reputable distributors.
Cheers, heke
