Can you share a link to one of these, or a screenshot of the listing so we can see what you're talking about? I'm not clear what you're asking about. You will need to join as a member to reply to this thread and post a screenshot. See this link for instructions on how to join Android Central.

Welcome to Android Central! They might be talking about screen burn-in.

If it's a used phone, that's probably it. If it doesn't annoy you to see the launcher (UI) when you;re running an app, use the burn-in to get the price way down. (Check what a Note 8 screen replacement costs in your area and try to get it discounted by close to that.) If the idea bothers you, stay away from it. There are plenty of used Note 8s available, without burn-in, for around $200 (so the value of one that needs a new screen is probably in the $50-$100 range).

Since they're saying "heavy shadow," I'd bet it's really bad. People will always try to downplay defects when selling something, so this means there's just no denying it.
