Our 50-Point Certification Process
Every single device — every single time. No shortcuts, no exceptions.
The Process
From Sourcing to Your Door
01
🔍
Source Verification
Every device sourced only from authorized vendors, corporate IT refresh, and verified retail channels. Supply chain documented. Zero grey market.
02
🔬
50-Point QC Check
In-house certified technicians run all 50 checkpoints. Physical, functional, software, and authenticity checks. Only the best devices qualify — roughly 2–3 in 10 earn Grade A.
03
🏷️
Certification & Grading
Passing devices are graded (Grade A 95–99%), photographed, and assigned a condition description. Every listing is based on this objective score.
04
📦
Secure Packaging
Devices are cleaned, packaged with all included accessories in tamper-evident packaging, and paired with a newAsNew Certification Card.
The Full Standard
All 50 checkpoints, published in full
This is the sheet the technician works from, printed exactly as it is used. Every laptop is tested against all 50 points and the sheet is signed before the unit is listed — written for laptops and MacBooks, not carried over from anything else.
