Office chair resale in Kenya

Inspected secondhand office chairs with disclosed condition

A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE

Fictional resale lot: purchase six used adjustable office chairs, photograph and grade each separately, then sell only the accepted units after competent condition assessment. Customer chooses by chair ID rather than a generic stock photo. Scope includes model-appropriate cleaning and factual function demonstration, not opening gas cylinders, welding bases, transferring an original new-product certificate to used stock or promising a medical ergonomic outcome.
