Should I buy a lightly used clutch?
I ran the JWT clutch/flywheel on my G35 and loved it, there is someone offering to sell me his JWT clutch with 4000 miles on it, I haven't really heard of using a used clutch before so I guess I will leave it to your suggestions what I will do.

IMO, no. It's only $400 new.

You can check the friction disc for wear. Unfortunately you can not see inside the clutch. Buyer beware.

I don't think I would ever buy a used clutch. But that's just me.

If I needed to save money, I'd consider buying a cheaper brand before buying someone else's problems. I would never buy a used clutch.

That was what I was kinda leaning towards, he says he was nice to it, but I just felt so iffy about a used clutch, thanks for the advise!
