Doesn't "as is" refer also to items that are offered in other ways than by being sold? I mean, don't you say "this software is provided 'as is' without fee, with no warranties express or implied [etc]"? If this is indeed the case, please modify the contents of this article to properly reflect that 'as is' is not restricted to sold items, but can also be applied to free items, items offered under a certain license that restricts their usage, etc.

Agreed. The first few paragraphs of the article, without expressly saying so, appears to explicate the use of "as is" in transactions in goods under Article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code. See UCC 2-316(3)(a) (2005 official text). So the text should be sectioned into the various types of transactions i.e. goods, nontanngible property, real estate. I'll take a crack at it shortly.

Reworded to ‘... In other words, the item may be sold "as is"; nevertheless, if the item does not conform to the seller's description of it, the buyer has a right to reject it.’, primarily purging awkward wording.
But having purged an even simpler clumsy wording, later in the same ‘graph, I find I’ve exposed another questionable wording, which I’m too tired now to sort out. So I urge colleagues to following up, in case I fail to. —JerzyA (talk) 10:27, 4 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
