Hello guys

Recently I've bought a I7 8700K from Amazon (US) and got my hands on it today

But I noticed that there were fingerprints all over the CPU, somewhat greasy

The box was sealed with a watermarked tape written "Intel Factory" on it though

It's bothering me a little bit, but since I'm not from US, replacing it won't be possible

Just wanted to know if these kind of human errors occurs in the packaging process on their manufacturers

Or they always have to come with a crystal clear back?

Thanks in advance and I would appreciate any kind of input from this CPU owners
