Grade A, B or C: what used-part condition grades mean
14 Jul 2026 · Rakkibo Admin
Used doesn't mean uncertain. Every part on Rakkibo carries a condition grade agreed by the seller, so you know what you're getting before you buy.
Grade A — Excellent. Minimal wear, fully functional, close to new, with no visible damage. Ideal when appearance matters or the part is on show.
Grade B — Good. Normal used wear and fully functional, with the odd minor cosmetic mark. The sweet spot for most mechanical parts — you're paying for function, not looks.
Grade C — Usable. Heavy cosmetic wear but working, sold as-is with any defects disclosed. Great value for hidden or non-critical parts where only fitment and function matter.
A few tips: for anything structural or safety-related, lean toward A or B. For brackets, trims and hidden components, Grade C often makes the most sense. Whatever the grade, the listing photos are the seller's own — study them, and message the seller if you need more.
And remember: if a part arrives dead-on-arrival or not as described, you can open a return from your order page.
