It came a bit scratched up, but no dents.  It also had upgraded RAM from the OEM configuration which is a plus.  The last HP 8300 renewed I bought had a motherboard failure a few months after purchase, so hopefully this one won't do that.  I bought this one as I was able to switch everything from the last one to this one without missing a beat.  The shipping was delayed but that was on Amazon, not the supplier.
