What Does Open Box Mean?
Open box usually refers to an item that has been opened prior to the product being returned or it was used as a store demo/display model. The reason for return can vary per customer and may be based on the dislike of the product colour or in some cases an equally trivial reason but not because the product has been damaged.
Open box (A-Stock): Is a term used when a product is “like new and in brand new condition”. In most cases the product has not been used but the packaging may have been opened.
Open box (B-Stock): Refers to products that may have been returned to the original manufacturer or were previously installed or used as a display/ floor model. These products usually include the original packaging/accessories and have been thoroughly checked and recertified for resale.
Open Box (C-Stock): Refers to a product that has sustained appreciable wear and shows visible signs of use. Likely these products were installed or used as a floor/ demonstration model or returned to the manufacturer due to an issue unrelated to the functionality of the product and may not include any of the original accessories.
Refurbished: Refers a product that has been used and required refurbishment. Usually with refurbished products they can show major to minor signs of wear and do not include any of its original packaging; meaning the box, manuals or accessories are not included.
