Since my linksys 9200 is faulty, I need a replacement.
Was looking for a new router on ebay and found this rt-ac88u for $240, other prices is about $400.
Is it legit though? Why is it said oem and never used?
Found this one also, seems too good to be true:

Mod: Fixed broken links.
how was it?
Does it show any signs of fake product?
Nope, just another case of Australia being ripped off while LibLab politicians pretend competition works and Communist China pays much cheaper prices.
Why is it unboxed then..
You should ask them if it runs Asus firmware or some other OEM firmware. I bought a Asus RT-68U OEM which runs T-Mobile firmware and they are some limitations on it, such as no mesh network, T-Mo firmware is very outdated/no security fixes, and it is very complicated to flash other firmware on it (such as tomato, merlin etc). I think the RT-68U cost around $200 and I got an OEM/refurbished one for $60 so I think its a pretty good deal, even though there are some risks if you want to use other firmware on it(such as the original asus). OEMs ones such as T-Mo comes with their own box and different from the normal/typical asus retail boxes.
Ic that makes sense
if it is labelled "ASSUS" yeah probably
I bought it for $207 delivered from China.
