of the used laptops. The documents might be a fake one or clone version of the
original receipt/documents and If the seller doesn’t have a receipt then don’t
but the used laptop might be a stolen one. Be careful.
· Password- Ask the seller to open the used
laptops if the laptop had some login password and he is unable to open the
password then it might not be his laptop. It might be a stolen one that’s the
reason he cannot open the password.
· Damage- Look for any sign of damage
because some laptops have anti-theft devices that have been forcibly removed.
· Serial Number- Look for a serial number of the
laptop and check proper branding and details of the product if the details of
the serial number and branding don’t match the seller details then it might be
a stolen or clone one.
