 Welcome to A/V Testing! The goal of A/V Testing is to identify A/V devices that can be reused, ensure that they function properly, and prepare them for sale by the Thrift Store, Bulk Sales, or Online Sales. This allows us to contribute to both the reuse of gizmos which might otherwise have been discarded, and to helping fund the organization. The path of an A/V device through Free Geek in general depends on the type and present state of the device in question, but a basic rundown is as follows:

 A/V staff do a second triage pass, and then select specific devices for testing:
 * Certain types of devices (e.g. niche, vintage, difficult to test or specialized equipment of limited interest to general public) with a value between $30 and $100 are taken directly to the bulk buyer shelves in the Warehouse
-* Devices which are more difficult to test that are valued abouve $100 may be put on the A/V area rack for later testing
+* Devices which are more difficult to test that are valued above $100 may be put on the A/V area rack for later testing
 * Testable devices are stored on the A/V area rack for later testing (with overflow going to the bulk buyer shelves in the Warehouse, see table below).
 ===Current store needs by device type===
 Number of items per device type that should be tested waiting for store and number that should be on hand to test(these numbers may change).
