Item listed as spares or repairs.

Regarding the above, surely if an item is listed as the above it implies that the item "could possibly be repaired"?

If however the listing was "parts only" this implies something quite different.. I make an educated guess (not always correct) whether to buy a phone listed as "spares or repair" on questions I ask the seller via the 'message the seller' option.

So, to be clear. The seller can tell you whatever he/she wants to push the sale through? Or am I missing something!

It could also mean that it's listed for spares.

If an item is suspected as being faulty it should really be listed as "for parts or not working".

I have seen many listings stating "used" as condition but title/description often says spares or repairs,untested.
