Understanding Cosmetic Grades
Excellent Grade laptops show only minor signs of use with minimal scuffing or light keyboard wear, whilst screens remain free of scratches, cracks, or dead pixels. Good Grade laptops display more visible wear including heavier keyboard use, possible small dings or dents on covers, and screens may have subtle blemishes or slight scratches but no cracks.
