Understanding Our Grading System
Excellent Grade: Devices show minimal signs of previous use with very minor scuffing or abrasions from light standard use. Keyboards display minimal wear, and screens are pristine—completely free from scratches, cracks, chips, dead pixels, dark spots, discolouration, or blemishes. Excellent grade laptops deliver an almost-new aesthetic experience.
Good Grade: Fully functional laptops with signs of more extensive use compared to Excellent grade. These may include visible scratches on the laptop body, heavier keyboard wear, possible small dents or paint chips, and screens that may show uneven light diffusion or subtle blemishes but remain crack-free and fully functional.
