Explanation:
a Colombian lawyer about this, and to "as specified" he added "and authentic"; in that particular case, what was being offered was services as per contract. A mere specification is not enough, the property has to exist. In some cases, the proper term to use is "as is", but there is no exact translation that fits everything.
