Shopping & Orders
A refurbished product is a pre-owned product that has been tested for most favorable performance and functionality while being covered by a specific warranty provided by the seller. It is ideal that the refurbished product is bought from an authorized seller. The refurbished products normally undergo rigorous quality and functionality tests before they are sold to the public. The main difference between "refurbished" and "used" products is that refurbished products have been tested and verified to function properly, and are thus free of defects while "used" products may or may not be defective.
