Thanks to this thread I decided to be brave (or is it stupid?) and try this on my newly acquired PW3 running 5.8.11

Is this a new device, never connected to the Internet? Yes, but I did connect with the internet. S/N: G090 G105 7*
Is it a "refurbished" device? Yes
Is this the firmware it arrived with or has it been updated to this version? Stock 5.8.11, I downgraded using update_PW3_5.7.4_initial.bin
Is it registered? Yes
Does it have ads (Special Offers)? No
What country was it sold in? US
What country was it delivered to? US
Was the seller an on-line Amazon site or was it a third-party seller (on-line or brick&mortar). Amazon (US)

Everything was successful, I am now on fw 5.9.6.1 (3314460001) and jailbreak is still in tact.
