Inspection framework

  • Identity, model, and part number recorded
  • Physical and cosmetic condition documented
  • Power test, when safe and applicable
  • Display and visible ports inspected
  • Printer test, when present and applicable
  • Cables and accessories verified against listing
  • Factory reset only when appropriate and possible

Payment-device compatibility

Payment devices may be merchant- or processor-locked, previously provisioned, deactivated, unsupported, obsolete, or require activation by a compatible processor. Unless a listing expressly states otherwise, activation and provisioning are not verified. Buyer is responsible for confirming processor, merchant-account, software, and activation compatibility before purchase.
