necessity of RED unlock code

Question

If I purchase a used, non-EOL Sophos RED device on ebay, will it be usable if seller fails to provide latest unlock code?

Hi John, 
 You&rsquo;ll need the Unlock code every time you want to configure the RED device to another Firewall. 
 You won't be able to use it unless you have the unlock code since it's already configured to another Firewall., and to request it. You need the following: 
 1. Request a transfer of RED device ownership 
 2. Request to be Authorized Contact 
 These are the requirements before you can request the unlock code for the RED device and for safety & security purposes. 
 
 Kindly see the reference below:
