They're destroying new products too!
- chrisseaton 5y ago'In good condition' and appearing to still be in original shrink-wrap isn't good enough to sell as new to a consumer though. You can try to offload it via a box of junk auction, and they do do that, but I'm not sure how tractable it is at scale.
