Do you trust refurbished products?

[Ronnie]

I'm not one to shy away from buying used electronics, though I much prefer brand new items if the money allows for it. However when it comes to seeing a refurbished label on the product, I can't help but feel paranoid that it won't work. Have any of you bought refurbished stuff? Maybe they work just like any other used product and I'm too reluctant to try lol.

pends on where it's from

if it's from the manufacture I guess

if it's from a store, maybe no

[Belisarius]

for the most part, yes. like cap said it just depends where its from.

It depends, if it is something electronic, no. If it is an antique item, yes.

Definitely have been going the refurbished/used route with most of my amazon purchases since college. Actually, most of the PS4/3DS games I own are used copies. As long as they work fine, I don't see anything wrong with getting it for maybe 60% of the price.

For the price, I do!

My refurbished vacuum cleaner was a 1/5th of the price of a brand new product, it's lasted 6 years so far.

My husband's computer monitor is refurbished and it's lasted the longest of all his computer monitors.

A lot of refurbished products come with guarantees, so look into them!

My refurbished phone and 3DS work as new, and between them saved me hundreds.
