If OcUK B-grade stuff was cheaper, it might be worth getting.

However whenever I've looked, the B-grade stuff was almost as expensive as the normal stuff, so it's not worth it.

You have a 90 day warranty with ourselves.

I am sorting it out currently. - If you notice any mistakes/questions related to B-Grade feel free to post in the OcUK Customer Services section of the forum.

I know you don't provide a reason or description why the product is 'B-Grade' but it would help us in deciding if it is worth purchasing.

It's usually ex-display, previously opened or damaged packaging?
Am I right 5UB?

I thought it was accessories missing, and game vouchers?

All B-Grade products are fully testing and do work fine, they tend to be manufacturer replacements/customer DSR returns. They can be brown boxed, or missing accessories or sometimes can be 100% complete. It's like a mini lottery

Indeed, accessories missing etc. If it's a board it'll probably be missing the backplate, remember.

Can be any of those things, I have seen a lot of products that look spanking new and have everything in the box, just the box is damaged.

Any feedback regarding the B-Grade stock is great as I am currently working my way through it as we speak, so any questions or suggestions just let me know.

if its a board will it have everything to get it running there and then? im sure you can't sell something that don't come with everything to get it working out of the box.

I have noticed some motherboard are brown boxed, as in you receive just the motherboard, however there are some in the retail box which do have some accessories included. At the moment we cannot guarantee the state of why and how it is B-Grade; but it is something I am looking into, in order to improve and make it clearer.

Do us a favour, look into this one please, i wanna buy it, however, i don't want to buy it and see theres screws missing or a plate missing, don't mind if its a damaged box or something like that, but i realy want to know whats wrong with it before i buy it.
