Condition Guidelines
The condition of refurbished and pre-owned PCs can vary depending on previous use, so we aim to provide clear and accurate information to help you make an informed decision.
Wherever possible, we include multiple photographs and highlight any noticeable marks, scratches, dents, casing damage, missing panels, broken clips or other defects. Please review all photographs carefully before purchasing, as they form an important part of the product description.
Any known issues affecting the operation of the PC, including ports, drives, fans, buttons, power supply, casing or other hardware, will be stated in the product description where identified.
Where the item shown is not the exact unit you will receive, the supplied PC will be the same model or specification and in the same or a very similar overall condition unless otherwise stated. PCs with more noticeable cosmetic defects may be photographed individually for greater transparency.
All refurbished and pre-owned PCs may show signs of previous use. Minor marks, scratches, scuffs, wear to the case, front fascia or rear panels, and other cosmetic imperfections should therefore be expected unless the item is specifically described as immaculate.
Grade A* – Immaculate condition with little to no visible signs of previous use. The casing, panels and overall exterior will be in exceptional cosmetic condition.
Grade A – Excellent condition with only very minor signs of previous use. Any marks or scratches will be light and unobtrusive, with no significant casing damage.
Grade B – Good condition with light cosmetic wear, such as small marks, scratches, scuffs or minor wear to the casing, panels or front fascia. The PC remains fully functional unless otherwise stated.
Grade C – Fair condition with noticeable cosmetic wear, including heavier scratches, scuffs, dents, worn paint, minor casing damage or other visible signs of previous use. The PC remains fully functional unless otherwise stated.
Grade D – Working with defects. The PC is functional but has one or more significant cosmetic defects, damaged or missing casing components, non-working ports, missing features or other known limitations. All known faults and limitations will be clearly stated in the product description.
