Second Hand Ratings
It is a point of professionalism that we do not sell second-hand
cameras and equipment that are not in full working condition. All
our stocked items for resale have either retained their full
functionality since their manufacture or have been repaired by
their manufacturer to do so. The differences in rating are based
only on physical appearance. If there is a compromise in
functionality so miniscule we think it passable, we will describe
this condition in detail.
With this in mind, feel free to have a browse of our second-hand
store, or contact
us if you need to know more about a particular product.
10 - Perfect
As if it was never removed from its box, this product has no
physical imperfections whatsoever. It has probably seen little to
no usage from its past owner.
9 - Nearly new
As good as new with no physical imperfections, this item has
hardly been used.
8 - Immaculate
Nearly as good as new, but showing minimal signs of wear visible
only on close inspection. Glass components, if any, are in perfect
condition.
7 - Excellent
Nearly as good as new, but showing minimal signs of wear visible
only on close inspection. Glass components, if any, are in good
condition.
6 - Superb
Bodywork is clean, but may have a few scratches or marks in
places. Contact points may show slight signs of wear, but still
function perfectly. Glass components, if any, are in good
condition.
5 - Great
Bodywork is mostly clean, save for a few scratches or marks in
places. Contact points show slight signs of wear, but still
function perfectly. Glass components, if any, may have dust or
haze, but not at the detriment of functionality.
4 - Good
Bodywork finish may be slightly tarnished and faded in places,
with a few scratches or marks. Contact points may be worn, but
still function properly. Glass components, if any, may have dust or
haze, but not to the detriment of functionality.
3 - Fair
Bodywork finish is tarnished and faded in places, with
scratches, marks or small dents. Contact points are worn, but still
function properly. Glass components, if any, have dust or haze, but
not to the detriment of functionality.
2 - Seasoned
Does not look at all like a new product as a result of
considerably tarnished bodywork. Has more than average wear on
switches and other contact points. Glass components will have dust
or haze, but not to the detriment of functionality.
1 - Wounded
It may be an ugly duckling but it will still work as well as any
other item on our list. Has serious cosmetic damage, which may
include dents, scratches and chips. Buttons and contact points are
considerably worn.
