I purchased an Amazon Renewed HP laptop.  Amazon Renewed guarantees no visible wear or use at arm's length.  The laptop I received had heavy scratches and chips on the corners and underneath.  It had a sticker on the outside of the lid (see pictures) that was just the right size and color to presumably cover all the scratches there.  There is a substance that appears to be glue of some kind holding it together by the trackpad.  I've bought quite a few Renewed laptops, and was always quite happy...  Until now.  Ripoff!!!
