Our refurbished PCs: condition and checks

Our Refurbished PCs: Quality & Controls

At DS Gate, each refurbished PC is rigorously tested, cleaned, and prepared to provide you with a reliable, high-performance machine that's ready to use. We display full transparency regarding the cosmetic condition and the controls performed.

Rigorous Refurbishment

Before shipping, each computer undergoes a series of checks performed in our workshop:

Technical Tests

  • Complete hardware diagnostics (motherboard, processor, RAM, storage)
  • Verification of all ports and connectors working properly
  • Testing of essential peripherals (keyboard, screen, webcam)

Optimal Preparation

  • Internal and external cleaning
  • Full system reset
  • Software optimization and driver installation

🔹 Result: a 100% functional PC at the time of shipment.
🔹 Windows 11 is installed and activated, ready to use.

Battery & Power Supply Checked

Each battery is checked to ensure it's working correctly:

  • Battery tested and replaced if necessary
  • Capacity adapted for normal use of a refurbished product
  • Compatible charger included

👉 The battery's condition is integrated into our cosmetic classification system.

Clear and Transparent Cosmetic Conditions

The visual condition of each PC is indicated on its product page so you know exactly what you are buying:

  • Correct: visible signs of use (scratches, marks), without affecting functionality
  • Good: light signs of use, generally clean
  • Very good: very few marks, close to new appearance

⚠️ Any defects are only cosmetic and do not affect performance.

Warranty and Customer Service

For a worry-free purchase:

  • Warranty included (duration indicated on the product page)
  • Products checked before shipping
  • Responsive customer support for any questions

We place great importance on the satisfaction and trust of our customers.
