Full condition scale
Each unit is inspected at 28 points and graded honestly. Here's how we translate each level so you know what to expect:
Barely any signs of use. Almost flawless aesthetics and perfect operation.
Light marks from normal use. Optically clean and fully functional.
Visible signs of use (scuffs, marks, brassing). Works perfectly.
Not guaranteed for use: sold for parts or repair.
Why buy used?
Depreciation is already absorbed: the same gear for much less than new.
Many classics and discontinued gems only exist today on the used market.
28-point inspection and 6-month warranty included on every unit.
