What the grades mean
Each α7 IV on the stock list carries one of three grades for how it looks.
Hard to tell from little-used at arm’s length.
Normal signs of use you can see, nothing on the glass.
Clearly used and marked, every function working.
The letter describes cosmetic condition only. Every graded unit passed the same function checks, whatever its letter. Full grading standard
