About Deal Items:

Deal items are products that may be new, slightly used, or in some way not suitable as a regular price product. Products may become deal items for any reason, box damage, not regular stock, imperfect, or very slight damage. Sometimes new products arrive with small small scratches or dents that disqualify as new during quality control checks at the warehouse. Defects may at times be hardly noticeable and at other times quite obvious but a reasonable effort is made to portray accurately.

Helpful things to note about this model:

1. The unit's factory default language is German. When the unit is reset it will default to German. English is restored after pressing reset button, then the Right Arrow and the Green ENT button.
2. Most, but Not ALL pieces will fit in the storage compartment below the unit. It's recommended to use a small drawstring bag to store pieces
3. Contrast adjustment settings do not appear to function as expected and in most cases do nothing at all for the display. In the units that we tested, all displays already were in the most optimal contrast setting.
4. Do not expect to play vertical chess using the pieces; the magnets are designed to provide just enough help to keep the pieces from shifting or falling when moving the board.
