Call me nuts, I just decided that I may takes him on his offer. 
So I am pretty much a newbie in Bitcoin world, and decided that I'll be mining as my first step.
The seller mentioned he used his units for 1 month is there anyway to verify this?
Also, typically if no overclocking is involoved at all, how long could I expect that a single unit of S5 would last?
Any help is appreciated.

You will not find any S5 which would be used only in a month.
Ok I understand your logic, but I was thinking to ask for his recipe as a verification method.
Anyway, I asked him for an easy proof earlier and he should have talked to me 3hours ago... I guess no deal is going to happen here.
Would you or others recommend any specific (used?) model or brand with high hashing rate, given that electricity doesn't take into consideration?
