The new way to save the planet: buy refurbished computers!

Every month, more than a million computers are released into the environment. Most in good used condition.

In fact, many companies do the same thing with computers as they do with cars: they make contracts with a similar format to renting for a few years (three years is the most common) and then return them exchanging them for new devices. There are even those who call them the "fleet" of computers....

And what happens to returned devices? Got it right! They are cleaned, treated and, if necessary, have some of their parts replaced, in particular the batteries, if necessary.

These computers are then usually resold much cheaper than the original version. Often at less than half or even a third of the price.

It's fashionable to buy refurbished computers

This operation is extremely important to protect the environment. So important that it is becoming a new fashion to use refurbished computers.

And it would be strange if it weren't like that! Who doesn't want to have a top-of-the-range machine for the price of the cheapest one you find in a new computer store?

Faster, lighter, with a better screen, and more robust (cheap new computers are often made of plastic and don't have the highly resistant metal structures of professional computers).

The truth is that most people who buy a Refurbished computer do not go back to buying a new one anytime soon. After all, is there anything better than feeling that you spent your money wisely?

And what about the big brands that think this? Well, they are great encouragers. In reality, if there were no one to buy used computers, it would be much more expensive to buy a new computer for those who choose this option because the used one, in exchange, would have no value. Big brands such as Apple, Microsoft, Dell, Lenovo, HP and many others support this process.

After all, isn't the same true for cars?

But, how to buy a Refurbished computer?

Now, saving money by buying a low-priced Refurbished laptop requires your care:

• Make sure you buy from trustworthy companies. Find out if companies have been on the market for a while.
• Make sure that the company you buy from has an experienced technical department.
• Check whether the company you are buying from sells to large customers. These are usually more demanding and these companies must have solid support structures.
• Make sure that the company you are buying your computer from only works with the highest grades, preferably Grade A, of the highest quality.
• Make sure that your Refurbished product is from a top brand.
• Check if the computer you are going to buy has a warranty.

And who are they intended for?

Refurbished products are an excellent bet for all segments.

• For companies because they can equip a team with an investment that, by purchasing new equipment, would equip just one person.
• For freelancers or professionals , who can have a top-of-the-line machine without the shocking outlay they would make to buy a new machine.
• For students , because they now have their own computer, fast and robust (the backpack sometimes falls to the floor and the plastic breaks...), they stop using their father's, mother's or that old man's computer that was at home.

Having a Refurbished is really in fashion. After all, it showcases two very important characteristics of those who use them: intelligence, since they bought something much better and much cheaper; and concern for the environment: who doesn't like to be seen in an electric car nowadays?
