Hmmm, I've read just the opposite. I'm not saying that EVERY card will exhibit such behavior, just that I wouldn't take the chance, myself.Every review of used mining cards I have seen concludes that as long as the GPU arrives in fully working condition not requiring more than a cleanup, re-pads+paste and possibly new fans, performance is practically good as new.
Hereis just a few examples of the dozens of articles on the matter -

Anywho, my main point is just that I wouldn't touch a used GPU (of the base models that are used heavily in mining) with a 10-meter cattle prod, right now. Especially since prices should continue to drop.
