About this episode

Have you ever been tempted to buy a product (usually electronics) labeled, “refurbished”? The price is typically discounted and often the warranty is excellent - but is it a good deal or are you buying someone else’s headache? This episode begins by looking at what the term refurbished actually means and whether or not it is worth buying that product or leaving alone and going for the brand new one. http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/laptops/refurbished-electronics-buying-guide
