Our grading is based exclusively on aesthetic conditions. All our functional devices are tested and graded based on the presence or absence of scratches, scuffs, and any defects in the screen.
In each auction, you will find a file with the complete list of devices for sale based on the aesthetic grade, which you can download and use to place your bids.
For each grade, we have included a reference that identifies its potential in the market. This can help you understand if the product aligns with your market needs.
When devices are in the ‘Faulty’ section of our site, the classification remains the same, with the difference that they may be non-functional and have damage to various components.
