Are you looking for a cost-effective way to source wholesale tech? Callisto’s Grade W category offers an ideal solution for buyers looking to secure bulk devices at competitive prices. Let’s explore what Grade W means and why it’s a smart investment for your business. 

What is Grade W? 

Grade W devices include a mix of A, B, C, and Z-grade smartphones, tablets, laptops and desktops, each with varying cosmetic conditions – ranging from nearly pristine to visibly worn. There’s no pre-selection e based on appearance, so you receive a wide range of devices. This variety makes it cost-effective because, while some devices may show more wear, many will still be in excellent condition, including higher-grade A and B devices. For resellers and refurbishers, this means gaining access to quality devices at a lower price. 
 
Every W Grade device is tested for key compliance and security factors, including: 

◾ GSMA Blocklist clearance 
◾ FMiP/Google Lock removal 
◾ MDM/DEP status clearance 

While Grade W devices aren’t tested for every function, major issues like broken displays are removed during processing. 

Key features of Grade W devices:

◾ Display glass: No cracks in the viewable area, though scratches may be present. 
◾ Rear glass: Crack-free but may feature a variety of scratches. 
◾ Display functionality: No cracked LCD or bleeding; screens are in working order. 
◾ Enclosure: No cracks, with potential for cosmetic imperfections like scratches or dents. 
◾ Battery health: Ranges from 0% to 100%. 
◾ Other functionality: Major functionality (e.g. MDM) is cleared, but some features have not been fully tested. 

Why Grade W? 

1. Cost-effective bulk purchases 

The mix of cosmetic conditions allows for significant cost savings, making Grade W an excellent option for resellers or refurbishers comfortable with varying device quality. 

2. Verified security 

Every device undergoes essential compliance checks, ensuring the stock you receive is clear of security locks or blacklists, giving you peace of mind when buying in bulk. 

3. Profit potential 

With the right refurbishing or reselling strategy, Grade W devices offer high profit margins, as many are still in working condition with minimal repair required. 

Return policy 

Grade W devices are sold "as-is" but Callisto accepts returns for major functional issues, such as cracked glass or devices that don’t power on. 

Why W Grade? 

Grade W on Callisto offers the perfect balance between functionality and affordability. With thorough compliance checks and competitive pricing, it's a great opportunity for resellers to boost their inventory and profits.
