Cosmetic Grading Standards
Excellent Grade laptops show barely any signs of previous use with only very minor scuffing or light abrasions from minimal standard use, light keyboard wear, and pristine screens completely free from scratches, cracks, dead pixels, or blemishes. Good Grade units are fully functional with more visible signs of wear including scratches on the laptop body, heavier keyboard wear, possible small dings or dents, and screens that may show uneven light diffusion or subtle blemishes but no cracks. Both grades deliver identical performance and functionality—the grading reflects only cosmetic condition, not capability.
