Every device, from intake to sold. One system.
Built inside TA1 Renewed, a UK refurbished-Mac distributor, and running its volume daily.
intake → erase → test → grade → price → list → dispatch → RMA
-
Mac testing
Automated hardware diagnostics and grading for Macs, written straight onto the device record. No clipboard.
-
Inventory management
Serialised stock that stays accurate at pallet scale — the shelf and the report finally agree.
-
Multi-platform lister
Graded stock lists itself across marketplaces. Out-of-grade stock routes to auto-generated outlet sites instead of losing value in a corner.

Quickfurb Diagnostics
Every Mac is tested before it's graded.
Comprehensive diagnostics and testing software with built-in reporting. It runs on every Mac at intake and writes its result to the device record; that record sets the grade and generates the listing — so what the buyer reads is what the bench found.

Nothing that surfaces later
Activation Lock, MDM enrolment and Apple Business Manager registration are the faults that show up after the sale, not on the bench. All three are checked at intake, and a Mac doesn't move on until they're clear.
-
Read from the machine
Battery health and cycle count, SSD SMART status and wear, and kernel-panic history are read from the Mac itself, not typed from a description. A fault is flagged where it's found.
-
Recorded, then shipped current
Every result goes onto the device record — the listing is generated from it, not typed. Each Mac ships with the latest macOS its model supports at the time of sale.
Quickfurb Sanitisation
Every Mac is erased before it's tested, and the erase is on record.
Each incoming Mac is erased at the bench under software control. The erase is recorded step by step, checked on the machine afterwards and validated by a second person, and the record becomes a signed, numbered Certificate of Sanitization — a per-device certificate of data removal that a buyer or auditor can check for themselves.

-
Recorded, not declared
The erase is driven and logged by the bench, step by step. A disrupted erase is a failed record, never a quiet pass.
-
Checked, then validated
After the erase the Mac is read to confirm the result. A second person, never the operator, validates before anything is issued.
-
Verifiable by the buyer
Each certificate has a public verify page with a masked serial and a serial-match check, and the signed copy verifies offline with a published key. It is evidence that a defined process completed, was checked and was validated — not a warranty of outcome.
