Check condition grades — Grade A (excellent) parts are lightly used with no cosmetic damage, Grade B (good) shows normal wear, and Grade C (fair) may have visible wear or minor damage that does not affect function. Always verify the seller's return policy and ask whether the part was tested before removal.
