What makes you think it would be a new one as opposed to a refurbished used one.

Because Apple got sued for doing that once, and people including myself are in line to get checks from it.

It would depend on a countries consumer laws. I used to work for AASP's in Australia and they definitely used refurished phones for replacements and refurished parts for the Mac repairs. Not everyone who uses this site lives in America...

It's also the rule in the EU.
