Please note:
Every refurbished unit we sell undergoes thorough testing and professional cleaning to ensure it meets Tech Trade Group Tier 1 Refurbished Products Certification. Devices may show minor cosmetic imperfections like light scratches or surface marks, but each one is guaranteed to perform like new.
Our refurbished units come from the robust, commercial-grade lines of top-tier manufacturers such as Dell, HP, Lenovo, and Samsung to name a few. Originally designed for enterprise use, these models feature superior build quality and commanded premium prices when new. Most of our stock comes from large corporations and government departments, where equipment is typically well-maintained. As a result, these commercial-grade machines often outlast typical consumer-grade alternatives.
We stand behind the reliability of our refurbished products. That's why every unit (unless otherwise specified) comes with a full 12-Month Warranty, covering any hardware faults that may arise during this period. We also offer an extended 24-Month Warranty for just $99.
Why pay full price for new equipment when you can get the same performance for a fraction of the cost? With savings of up to 80% on Laptops, Desktops, Monitors, and even Apple devices, buying refurbished just makes sense. Especially considering that there have been minimal breakthroughs in computer technology over the last 3–5 years, older models still deliver excellent performance for everyday tasks.
