Many people wonder if
buying a refurbished computer instead of a brand new one is a smart move or a
risk. Here are several reason refurbished computers might be right for you:
1 – It saves you money. Choosing
a refurb instead of springing for a new PC can save you anywhere from 20% to
80% off the RRP of a new computer.
2 – The quality and
reliability of PCs from an official Microsoft Approved Refurbisher (MAR) means
that you are purchasing a tier one branded product for a fraction of its
original cost.
3 - Most computers aren’t
passed on to be refurbished because they are defective, but simply because they
have been replaced by a slightly newer model.
4 – All refurbished
systems, including those that are indeed returned due to a real problem, are
cleaned, thoroughly tested and given any necessary repairs or upgrades before
being offered for re-sale. In fact, the risk of receiving a defective
refurbished unit is actually lower than the risk of receiving a defective new
one due to the extra testing and checks refurbished equipment is subjected to.
5 – Refurbished computers
frequently come with a warranty period just as with a brand new one. So should
a problem you'll have the same secure cover as you would with a brand new PC.
Tips for buying a
refurbished PC
1 – It's always best to
buy refurbished IT from a Microsoft Approved Refurbisher (MAR) as ITZOO, in order to guarantee the quality of the refurbishment and that
you're getting the real deal on any software included in your purchase.
2 – Remember that although
refurbs are great value and will work just as well as new units, the low price
means they might come with small cosmetic blemishes such as minor dents or
superficial scratches to casings.
Conclusion
By buying refurbished, you
can save money on your next computer purchase with virtually no risk. A good
reputation is vital to refurbished PC sellers such as ITZOO, and it's as import to them as it is to you that you receive high
quality and reliable service.
