Short for 'demonstration model,' a product displayed in a store or showroom to let customers see and try it before buying.
A compressed abbreviation combining 'd' (demonstration) and 'mod' (model). This type of shortened compound became common in retail and business English throughout the 20th century.
A dmod is often sold at a discount because it's been handled, displayed, and used by dozens of customers—making it a practical way to save money if you don't mind buying something that's technically 'used' without saying so explicitly!
