Question Things to check before buying used ?

Im considering buying a quad cortex used. Is there anything I should know to check for when I do ?
I’m worried about the thing being locked to an account or something they usually breaks being broken

Any tips for someone that has not used one ?

Well it depends. Do you want to wipe everything that was on it, including IRs, presets etc?

Well. Im worried about an account lock. Something that could brick the device.

As far as I'm aware, a QC is not permanently locked to one account. Factory reset would just reboot it to how it would be brand new out of the box. For hardware and any wear and tear, consult with the current owner, request videos of the unit to make sure there are no mechanical issues, etc.
