B-Grade checks

[RavenXXX2]

Do OCUK check items that have been returned then thrown in B-Grade? Just bought an 750ti and it's DOA. It's just a hassle. It seems the clearance section gets little attention from lack of testing hardware to not reducing used items.

B-grade product is of course tested, as faulty items go back to manufacturer, it is their replacements which go in to b-grade.

Yes it came in an MSI RMA box so I guess it's just unlucky it's dead.

Got few things from b-grade and so far no issues, and if you register product with manufacturer you still get warranty.

I got an z170 mobo and it was already registered.

just in case you don't know, you also get what's left of the manufacturer's warranty on top of those 90 days.

As for what to do... if you are unhappy with the product in any way, return it. You're spending £100s on something... it better be exactly what you want.

So I got an B Grade Asus mobo and well all know they tell you to go to retailer for RMA, are OCUK obliged to deal with it.

Not sure I'd do another B grade item tbh... I bought one for a PC I built for my Dad. DOA sadly and my dad passed away so returned for a refund which OCUK thankfully gave me (Think they could've instead given me a equal replacement?) but despite the card being faulty I had to spend £10 returning it by recorded mail iirc

Are you not entitled to a postage refund as item is faulty?
