Autograding

In pricing terms, autograding removes one of the largest sources of grade variance between sellers: human subjectivity. When two sellers grade the same device differently, one will systematically underprice or overprice relative to market reality. Platforms like Back Market increasingly reward sellers with low return rates, and those rates correlate strongly with grading consistency. For pricing intelligence, autograded inventory is more comparable across competitors because it follows a repeatable methodology rather than individual technician judgement.
