Similar experiences. Got two monitors both have scratches. But the price is low so cannot complain. However, you can buy this NEW from Walmart right now for $149:

I have both. ASUS has better quality and quite bigger battery.
Screens appear to be the same.
ACER has better speakers, smaller footprint due to thiner bezel and better keyboard.

No more Acer refurbs. They are all scratched and damaged. 3 out 3 orders I got from them. Not buying crap anymore. 🤣
My stuff was brand new. Not even a fingerprint.

For me, 17" chromebook sounded like a good idea until I actually got one and saw how massive it was. Make sure you really want a computer this big before buying
I got the Acer 15.6 with ryzen 3350u processor so I could enjoy windows with AMD andrenalin software to change contrast, hue, saturation, etc. You cannot do that with a chromebook.

220 ebay special.

17 inch chromebook with no color or hue or contrast or saturation screen adjustment is just crazy.

Can Linux Mint be loaded and run on these?
All the N4xxx processor chromebooks are Gemini Lake, which currently can only run ChromeOS. They won't boot any Linux installer.

It does boot to almost any UEFI bootable OS, when you disable ChromeOS verification and enable UEFI USB boot from command line

Certainly, PayPal built-in buyer protection and also your CC zero fraud protection, some CC also provides 90 days return protection

Are you sure you purchased "new" is not refurbished ?
The Walmart listing for the cheaper price one that is not from Walmart, it is just a random seller .

Walmart as the seller is now $139 new. So it is now cheaper brand new. It's FP refurbished because it is promoted by SD.
