There are several questions that you need to ask when buying a second hand LED spotlight online. These questions would actually still form part of your due diligence if you were shopping for any other type of LED lighting appliances. These are, for instance, still the key questions you’d find yourself having to ask (as part of your pre-procurement due diligence), if you were looking for LED MR16 bulbs. But the LED MR16 bulbs would be quite interesting in this context. We say so because, for the most part, the LED MR16 bulbs are unlikely to be found in the second hand market. Still, if under any circumstances, you had to buy second hand LED MR16 bulbs (or any other LED-based appliances) online, these would be the pertinent questions to ask.

The first question that you need to ask when buying a second hand LED spotlight online is as to whether or not the spotlight is actually in a serviceable condition. You see, the fact that something is being sold online (say, in a web-based auction site) doesn’t necessarily mean that it is actually in a serviceable condition. So you have to ask, just to be sure.

The second ...
... question that you need to ask, when buying a second hand LED spotlight online, is as to what the wattage and voltage ratings for the spotlight are. This should tell you whether, firstly, it is suitable for the sort of application you have in mind for it (for instance if, based on its wattage ratings, it is likely to be bright enough). The voltage figure may also tell you whether the spotlight is likely to work with the electrical supply you have wherever you plan to install it.

The third question that you need to ask, when buying a second hand LED spotlight online, is as to why the person selling it is doing so. Could it, for instance, be a situation where the original owner has gotten frustrated with the spotlight (on account of its unreliability) and decided to offload it onto someone else. Don’t expect an honest answer (especially if it is unfavorable to the seller’s interests), but you can discern some things if you listen carefully or read between the lines.

The fourth question that you need to ask, when buying a second hand LED spotlight online, is as to where the person selling it is (that is, geographically speaking). This should tell you whether buying the spotlight will amount to importing it (which can have implications, in terms of import taxes). It should also tell you how much it is likely to cost to have the spotlight actually shipped to you, and how long you are likely to have to wait, for the spotlight shipment to arrive.

The fifth question that you need to ask, when buying a second hand LED spotlight online, is as to whom, between you and the person selling it, is to cater for its shipping costs. This should have implications on what actually ends up being the real cost of buying the spotlight: especially if it emerges that you (as the person buying the spotlight) will have to pay the necessary fees for it to be shipped.
