How's your experience with refurbished items?

I've known some people with good experience on refurbished computers.

I'm looking into refurbished LCD TV.


Thoughts, opinions, experiences?

Refurbished items come straight back from the factory, I've purchased a bunch of refurbished items...off of overstock.com and know many people...never heard any complaints, or had any myself.

Foreal ? I've been 'upgrading' my Treos that way. Just graduated to the 755...when the 800 drops...my phone is going to mysteriously stop working again. I always thought they were brand new tho. Oh well. Free 99, can't complain !
 

P.E.

I've never had any problems with any refurbished items. The way I see it is, the item was sent back to the manufacturer and was given extra attention, so you should be good to go.

My expirience with refurbished stuff (as far as laptops go), is it works cool for a while, then they start effin' up, and it seems like you just bought someones refurbished piece of shit.

We got a refurbished wireless mouse and that works cool though, it's whatever.
