What made you to conclude that the Ledger Nano S we are giving away is second hand?
It is brand-new, sealed and untouched and if the winner asks then we can order and ship it directly from official Ledger website. Feel free to ask more questions Smiley

I think what he was trying to imply is that a hardware from a third party seller or distributor is not advisable. There have been recent issues of fake hardware wallets in circulation from third-party partners so it was advised that people acquire the hardware wallets directly from the original distributors.
Here is one of the recent so many circulating stories “Startling” discovery of Trezor’s fake wallets massive sale: precedents, victims and security tips

I would advise you if it were possible, in order to win back trust, use crypto which is equivalent in pcrice as the prize,  Either BTC, ETH or USDT put it in escrow and then run the competition. I think it would be better.
You have a good point but now since we have announced it, we can't withdraw the giveaway. We will keep this in mind next time while doing a giveaway.

Second hand hardware wallets are generally a bad idea. There was a well publicized case at the start of this year of a reddit user who used a second hand device that had been pre-initialized and had all their coins stolen, and this is not the only example. You can read about it here: https://www.ledger.fr/2018/01/12/scam-second-hand-ledger-device/

For the sake of $99, it's not worth the risk of losing all your coins. If you are using a second hand Ledger, then first make sure it is a genuine device by following the instructions here: https://support.ledgerwallet.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002481534-Check-if-device-is-genuine. Ensure you update to the latest firmware, and always initialize the device yourself and write down your own seed.

I'm not saying this is a scam, just that many people have been scammed by second hand devices before. Be careful.
