Save up to 80 percent off retail

.
You’ve heard the expression “good as new.” Buy a refurbished computer, and you’ll get one that may be even better. Not only do you get a quality computer with as much power as you need, you can also save a lot of money.

Refurbished computers come in all shapes and sizes. While the computer might have been returned because of slight defect, often it’s something much less serious. Maybe it had a cosmetic blemish or perhaps the previous owner simply opened the box before deciding he didn’t want it. Demonstration models and overstocked items have also be considered refurbished. No matter what the problem, the computer has been fixed and cleaned up for resale.

When buying refurbished items, you need to take some precautions. Make sure you still get a warranty and access to technical support in case something goes wrong. Also make sure you know what’s included – you don’t want to find out later that your computer doesn’t come with a monitor or an operating system.

You also want to buy from trusted sources. Your best bet is to buy directly from manufacturers, like Dell, that stand behind their refurbished merchandise. Go to www.dell.com to buy from its factory outlet. You can also buy refurbished Dell computers from www.dfsdirectsales.com. Other sites that offer refurbished computers include www.refurbdepot.com, www.cdw.com, and www.outletcomputer.com.

Keep in mind that with refurbished machines you can’t configure your own system like you can when you shop for a new computer. But, if you shop around, you should be able to find a computer that suits your needs.



All the best,



Timben
