Almost no signs of wear. The body may have very light micro-scratches. For items with screens, the screen will have no scratches.

The condition was good but the keyboard is messed up! It doesn‘t type the letters I‘m clicking on and I‘ve had to use the on screen keyboard for everything! It‘s not typing a single key correctly and now I‘m stuck trying to figure out how to fix it with more money when it‘s supposed to function well, or as they claimed „very good.“ On top of that, the laptop came to me with WATER on the inside!
