No --- and neither has any other buyer. But you're willing to trust a car dealer (???) who is desperately trying to take advantage of you and you're willing to overpay for something you can't even verify.
The NHTSA has looked at this BS oxidation claim and their conclusion is:
This is not a practical concern for most consumers, because they replace
the tires (due to tread wear) long before degradation is a problem.
