Refurbished Purchase & It’s Demand

The big reason is price. Even if you want the latest technology, you can come to us and buy a machine that was returned to the factory within the last three months. These models are still on the shelves of other stores at much higher prices.

If you are an average user, you can save even more by buying previously leased computer. If your not doing machine intensive tasks such as graphics rendering or digital video work, then buying a brand new computer will mean spending money on bells and whistles you are never going to use.

Here’s Why:
Gordon Moore, the former CEO of Intel coined “Moores Law”. This Law states, “that the power of semiconductor technology doubles every 18 months.” This has, if anything proved to be an underestimate. However, at the same time, the tasks they need their computer to perform have hardly changed at all. True, newer software is more advanced, but software manufacturers want to appeal to the largest customer base possible, so they engineer their products to run on computers 2-5 years old.

From a marketing standpoint, computers will become obsolete ...
... as soon as they are bought because there is always something newer available. But when it comes to usability, people are increasingly realizing that this is no longer the case. A refurbished computer made 5 years ago will run Microsoft Office and other mainstream applications and browse the internet as well as the latest piece of technology.

Luckily for Computer Trends customers, many computer buyers have not yet caught on to this change. Therefore the refurbished computer market is still receiving a steady stream of low-cost, newer computers, particularly from large companies that have gotten used regularly upgrading.

Computer Trends Customers enjoy:
• Low Price
• Fantastic Value
• The Latest Technology
• Factory Reliability
• Environmental Responsibility

Because all of our computers are tested and re-tested at the manufacturers factory, you are getting the same reliability, as you would have with a brand new one. These computers must pass the same rigorous tests as the computers being sold regularly. See Refurbishing Process to learn more.

Besides a great price, there are other reasons to feel good about refurbished computers. By buying a refurbished computer, you are helping the environment. A United Nations study into the environmental impact of personal computers recommended that users should think carefully about whether they really need a new computer. The study found that around 1.8 tons of raw materials are required to manufacture the average desktop PC, close to the same amount required to manufacture a mid-size car. The UN Report also found that extending a machine’s operational life through re-use holds a much greater potential for energy saving than recycling the unit’s material alone.
