Redoubt Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 Anyone know exactly what the blemishes are when you see, for example, BD Turbo cosmetic blems for $10-15 off? I can understand the claim that cosmetic flaws don't compromise the strength of a screw, but do they affect the functionality? Like scratches inside that might make it harder for ice to clear, or something wrong with the finish that affects how it actually screws in and out? What the hell are these "blemishes?"

Chad_A Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 No. I have a couple of "blemished" Turbo Expresses; the curved taper of the cutting surface has some slight "waves" it that reflect in the light, but otherwise you can't tell the difference, and they don't place any different from the non-blem items I have. Just to be on the safe side, though, I'd make them fess up to what they mean by "cosmetic blems" when you buy them, just in case there's other reasons they might be selling them cheaper. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
