English term

as is

GBK English to Finnish Bus/Financial Real Estate
Definition from Wikipedia:
As is is a legal term used to disclaim some implied warranties for an item being sold. Certain types of implied warranties must be specifically disclaimed, such as the implied warranty of title. "As is" denotes that the seller is selling, and the buyer is buying an item in whatever condition it presently exists, and that the buyer is accepting the item "with all faults", whether or not immediately apparent.
Example sentences:
In both new and used product sales, the manufacturer or seller may attempt to avoid the implied warranty of merchantability by either limiting it or disclaiming it entirely with an AS IS clause. (FreeAdvice)
If you bought a car as is, it means that you accepted it with all its faults. Any post-sale defects are your problem. A car may be sold as is through a dealer or a private person. The implied warranty of merchantability does not automatically arise in as-is purchases. (FindLaw, a Thomson Reuters business)
Using such language as "This property is sold as is" in a sales contract will probably not relieve the seller and the licensee from responsibility for material defects. (Georgia Real Estate Commission)

sellaisena kuin se on (-ehto)

Definition from own experience or research:
Kun tuote myydään "sellaisena kuin se on", tuotteessa ei ole lainmukaista takuuta tai palautusoikeutta, eikä se ole välttämättä moitteettomassa, uutta vastaavassa kunnossa. Myyjän on kuitenkin oltava rehellinen antaessaan tietoja tuotteesta ja sen kunnosta.
Example sentences:
§ 19 Sellaisena kuin se on -ehto Jos tavara on myyty "sellaisena kuin se on" tai samankaltaista yleistä varaumaa käyttäen, siinä katsotaan kuitenkin olevan virhe, jos: 1) tavara ei vastaa niitä tietoja, jotka myyjä on ennen kaupantekoa antanut sen ominaisuuksista tai käytöstä ja joiden voidaan olettaa vaikuttaneen kauppaan ...
