Refurbished grades, explained

The grade only describes how the outside looks. In every case the device should work perfectly.

• Fair

  Visible signs of use (scratches or small dents) on the body and sometimes the screen. Works 100%.

  e.g. £120

• Good

  Light marks only visible up close. The most common balance between price and looks.

  e.g. £140

• Excellent

  Practically no marks to the naked eye. The closest look to new.

  e.g. £160

Example prices, not live. The real price depends on the seller, storage and timing.
