I'm seeing a lot of refurbished electronics online these days and I've always wondered if people actually buy them. Some deals seem hard to pass up, but I've always been hesitant to pull the trigger.

Bought a refurbished Dyson off ebay 3 years ago for less than $200. Still works great today.

I buy almost every electronic device refurbished on Ebay from sellers with 98-100% feedback on 1000+ items. Haven't been duped or bought a dud yet

I've had a refurbished washer and dryer for about 6 months. No problems yet.

Got my youngest daughters two refurbed kindles off amazon last year for xmas. came in looking perfectly in boxes and have lasted this long.

No worries with them. They usually come with a standard 90day-year warranty.

I'll have to seriously think about this. I've always wanted to give it a try. In laws are wanting a 32" TV to put outside under their porch. I may try to find a refurb and let them be the guinea pigs

A refurb is perfect for an outside TV...

I thought about this. Wife wants a new computer. Does it come packaged in its original packaging?

Yep. My ipad came in a box all wrapped in plastic and everything else. Looked like a brand new one.
