Flawless	No scratches or scuffs anywhere. Screen and body look like new. Fully working, no cracks.
Good	Light, minor scratches or scuffs from normal use, none deep. No cracks or dents. Fully working.
Fair	Heavier scratches, scuffs, or a small dent, but no cracks in the glass or screen. Fully working.
Cracked screen	Cracked or chipped screen or back glass, but it still powers on and the touchscreen works.
Broken	Powers on but has a fault, a bad display, or a part not working (camera, buttons, Face ID).
Won't power on	Won't turn on or hold a charge. We still buy it for parts.

At inspection

Common iPad 10.2 (9th Gen.) issues we check at inspection

Non-laminated display. The display is not laminated, which can result in a slight gap between the glass and the LCD, affecting the premium feel and potentially causing more glare.
Outdated design and port. The design is largely unchanged from previous generations, featuring thick bezels and a Lightning port instead of the more modern USB-C found on other iPads.
Apple Pencil 1st Gen only. Only supports the first-generation Apple Pencil, which charges by plugging directly into the Lightning port, an often criticized design choice.
