Is it permissible to sell items with the condition ‘sold as seen’?
Answer:
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
It is permissible for a trader to sell a product with the declaration of ‘sold as seen’. If the item is damaged or faulty, the purchaser will not be entitled to any recourse.[1] However, it is not advisable for a trader to sell faulty goods with the declaration of sold as seen. This can damage his trading reputation and standards in the markets.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
