For instance- Apple to expand repair options with support for used genuine parts genuine Apple parts will now benefit from the full functionality and security afforded by the original factory calibration, just like new genuine Apple parts. (source:https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2024/04/apple-to-expand-repair-options-with-support-for-used-genuine-parts/) For instance- Fake spare parts were supplied to fix top-selling jet engine. European aviation regulators have determined that an obscure London-based company supplied fake parts for repairs of jet engines that power many older-generation Airbus A320 and Boeing 737 planes. (source:https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2023/09/01/companies/fake-parts-boeing-airbus/) Hence, Buying duplicate spare parts is a false economy, as using them may cost you more in the long run.
