Product Conditions
At Renewed Reliance, we offer a range of electronics including new, refurbished, and used devices. Each product is carefully inspected and clearly described so customers know exactly what to expect before purchasing.
For refurbished products, the condition mainly refers to the cosmetic appearance of the device rather than its functionality. All refurbished devices are tested and verified to function properly before being offered for sale.
Our products may fall into one of the following categories:
-
New
-
Refurbished
-
Used
Both refurbished and used products are graded according to cosmetic condition:
-
As Good As New
-
Lightly Used
-
Visibly Used
New
Products listed as New are unused and have never been previously owned.
These products are sold in new condition and have not been refurbished or repaired.
You can generally expect:
-
A completely unused product
-
No signs of wear or previous use
-
Original components and parts
-
Packaging and accessories depending on the product listing
New products are ideal for customers who prefer devices that have never been used before.
Refurbished
Refurbished products are devices that have previously been used but have been professionally inspected, tested, and prepared for resale.
Before being offered for sale, refurbished devices are typically:
-
Fully tested for functionality
-
Cleaned and reset
-
Checked for hardware issues
-
Restored where necessary
-
Prepared for reliable everyday use
Refurbished devices are graded based on cosmetic condition.
As Good As New (Refurbished)
A refurbished device in As Good As New condition has little to no visible signs of previous use.
You can generally expect:
-
No visible scratches or only extremely minor marks

A very clean screen and housing
-
A device that looks nearly new during normal use
This is typically the highest cosmetic grade for refurbished products.
Lightly Used (Refurbished)
A refurbished device in Lightly Used condition shows minor cosmetic signs of use.

This condition offers the most affordable refurbished option.

Product categories this applies to
Our product condition grading may apply to products including:
-
Smartphones
-
Tablets
-
Laptops
-
Smartwatches

Accessories

Other consumer electronics
Because different devices wear differently, cosmetic marks may appear in different areas depending on the product type.
Battery and performance
Where relevant, battery condition or battery performance may be stated separately on the product page.
Cosmetic condition and battery condition are not always the same. A device may look better cosmetically while still having normal battery wear consistent with previous use.
Accessories
Unless otherwise stated on the product page, accessories may be compatible or replacement accessories rather than original manufacturer accessories.
The exact contents included with your purchase will always be described on the product page.
