We make every effort to ensure your refurbished product performs similar to a new product. Whenever we are unable to provide you with a like-new item we price the product according to condition and available accessories. Below are some common refurbished points.

• Refurbished units may come with different accessories than the original item
• Refurbished laptops usually come with charger and battery, unless otherwise noted
• Refurbished laptops might come with a French-Canadian keyboard and we will note this in the product description
• Refurbished units will always come in a box that identify it as as being refurbished

If products are A-Grade (new in box) or B-Grade (like-new but refurbished), we use stock photos which accurately represent the condition of the product. Products listed as C-Grade have minor scratches to the surface of the item or small scratches on the screen. These products may use a photo we have taken of the same product but not necessarily representing the same location and size of wear as the product you receive. We make every effort to accurately match C-Grade products to the listing photo. All listings with C-Grade images are noted.

New open unit products are ones that have not been used, but the box seal was broken. Any handling was for inspection purposes only and you can be assured the product is like-new…just with a lower price.
