Function first
Used A and AB+ must be fully functional; Grade B must pass core-function testing. Every graded unit clears function checks before it is listed.
Know exactly what grade you are buying.
Every label on the price board and stock gallery maps to a clear standard. Used grades cover cosmetics; condition types cover how the stock was sourced. Here is what each one means.
How we grade
Three rules behind every grade.
Function is checked first, cosmetics are graded openly, and special batches are confirmed by your sales contact before you order.
Cosmetics graded clearly
Grades separate light wear, visible marks, and heavier scratches or dents — so the photo you see matches the grade you buy.
Sales-confirmed for special batches
For special-status stock such as ASIS+, your sales contact can confirm the exact batch details before you commit to an order.
