that is probably correct. there are different claims regarding month v week online. lucky 13 would most likely be week.

congrats on the purchase. masks (if you stick around here for a while) are a very subjective matter.

i would suggest getting one from the sites that give you good exchange policies. resmed (and probably others) have sizing templates that you can download to print out, trim and try.

RE: What to look out for in a used machine?
On masks and fitting, some have a fit guide you can download and print to check. Another idea is sellers stock Fit Pack mask kits, that will include the mask with several sized cushions to trial them. Once the best size is found, order that for next time. The mask, frame, headgear, and cushion can be replaced if worn, and if using insurance, there's an agreement on timing for replacements to be shipped.

Just one example is the ResMed P10 nasal pillow comes with S M L at Supplier #1. They have others, but this one tends to be minimalist.
Mask Primer

Positional Apnea

Attach OSCAR, etc.

I checked my serial number and the number says 15. 
It's a week.
