I got my RMA today, it was definitely a refurbished GTX 1080 FTW. I can see a couple of small scratches on the top of the card where the logo is. I noticed the card ran a little hotter than my first card. Hopeufully there are no issues with it. To early to tell.
My replacement card is also scratched somehow when I got it out the box and has worse overclock-ability. I don't really care though because it actually works. Scratch can be seen on the bottom part of this pic that I took when I inspected the card when it arrived.

I also received a used card less than 2 weeks after purchasing my FTW brand new from Amazon. It was scratch similar to yours, but much worse, and also had damage to the back plate.
I would not accept this 'solution' to the QC problem that is clearly plaguing EVGA for this cycle. I switched to Gigabyte for my purchases and the 1080 Extreme Premium Pack was a great deal and I have not had a single crash, lockup, or other issue in the many weeks since.
