    Yes they use original Dell parts although they may not always be brand new. As an example, if you need a motherboard replacing they may sometimes use a reconditioned part (which will be boxed as new so it will be difficult for you to spot). This is not always the case as I can imagine for brand new devices there will be limited reconditioned parts and as such they will only fit new but for devices that have been around for a few years now (e.g. M1330) I can imagine there will be more reconditioned parts than new.
