Condition grades
Clearance condition grades
Condition grades help buyers compare lots, but they do not replace sample testing, inspection or written PI terms.
Grade A: unused stock with acceptable packaging, possibly old inventory or mixed model batches.
Grade B: open-box, package-damaged, returned or storage-marked stock with sample testing recommended.
Mixed A/B: combined batches where unit-level packaging or condition may vary.
Functional claims should be confirmed by sample test, batch inspection or agreed random testing method.
No clearance lot should be promoted as brand-new official retail stock unless documents, authorization and condition can support that claim.
