b-grade quick question

HHM · 29 Sep 2007 at 12:06

Sorry to ask, but its weekend, and i did not manage to get any info about
terms and konditions for b-grade offers looking around and making "search"

In short: what is b-grade ? what kind of risc would I run with these offers ?

thanks for any help

(considering a MB ,.. while odering some ram anyway)

It's sometimes stuff that has been returned and is missing manuals or a cd or two. It mostly works, but you only get e.g. a 14 day warrenty with it.

It's why I'd rarely buy b-grade items. They're sometimes cheaper as well.

TBH they aren't cheap enough to justify the extra risks involved when buying them.

Thanks for the replyes, I will drop the b-grade MB, seems like a riscy game, my orders
on ram was unfortunately refused due to some new visa on-line verification that my
computer is not set up for, never had this problem ever before in any other shop, and
I have bought quite a lot over the internet, anyway thanks for answering, to bad that
the ram-order is also being refused, realy don´t whant to mess with my homebanking
just becourse of a single ram-order

So what happens to items used but returned under the Distance selling regulations?

There normally oly discounted by a couple of quid. Is it really worth it.

Never in my opinion, I haven't bought a b-grade item in years.

don't you get the full manufacturers warranty on them still though?

I've bought a few things from b grade and i'm still using it about 2 years on asus a8v deluxe rev 2

On motherboards in there you do get great bargains sometimes. And sometimes it is the only motherboard you get and nothing else. So you don't get SATA cable's etc etc

I bought an AGP 7800GS from the B-Grade section early last year and saved about £80. The only fault it had to warrant being sold in the B-Grade section was the box it came in was falling to pieces. Well worth the money.
