The grading standard
What Grade A means in liquidation
Opened, with no damage and no signs of use.
What the inspector tests for
Nothing missing that affects use, and a missing accessory such as a cable is named in the listing. It works, or it could not be tested and looks new.
Your claim window
24-hour claim window for major functional defects on a consumer account, counted from pickup or confirmed delivery. Longer for accounts verified as resellers.
Who buys this grade
The box is open and the item is not. This is the grade for someone who wants new condition and does not care that a carton was cut, which is most people once they understand what the grade is testing.
Computed under QC Standards Book 3, effective 2026-10-03. The grade is derived from the inspector’s answers, never chosen from a list.
