scratch-and-dent
Dinged but functional
Scratch-and-dent describes merchandise sold at a discount because of minor cosmetic damage—scratches, dents, dings—that doesn't affect function.
The term originated with appliances but extends to furniture, electronics, and other goods: We got the refrigerator from the scratch-and-dent section.
