B-Stock

B-Stock items offer a diverse range of products that have gone through various experiences, including being opened and returned, having cosmetic imperfections, or being used as demo units in retail stores. These items typically come with a limited manufacturer’s warranty and may be shipped directly from the distributor or manufacturer’s facility.

Mint

Mint condition items are pristine, free from any blemishes, and remain unaltered in any manner. Should there be any blemishes or modifications present, the item must be categorized as a condition below mint.

Fair

Fair-condition items exhibit a range of imperfections that affect the functionality of the item. Although fair items are not in a broken state, they may possess minor functional issues. Illustrative instances of items in fair condition include amplifiers with scratchy pots or playable guitars that exhibit dead spots in the upper register.

Not Functioning

Items in a non-functioning condition encompass instruments and other equipment that are incapable of operating. This category may involve a guitar with a completely broken neck or a non-responsive mixing board. Despite their non-functionality, there is a market for these items, particularly among buyers seeking project guitars or fixer-upper opportunities.
