Reasons to buy refurbished electronics
As most of us know, electronic waste is a growing problem worldwide. One problem that powers the electronic waste boom is the nonstop release of new products into the consumer flow. For example, cell phone plans are no longer 2 year contracts – so people are upgrading quicker and throwing out their old phones.
Other organizations take electronic waste and make good use of it.
Cross Training Center is a nonprofit organization that has an electronic store called Redeemed Computers Electronics which collects used laptops, computers, stereos, electronic accessories, and much more – refurbishes them and sells them! Redeemed also repairs PCs and Apple computers for the general public and past customers. They have the best repair rates in town and stand by their service! They can also upgrade and custom build systems for consumers and businesses.
- The main benefit of buying refurbished electronics is the cost. Redeemed provides quality, low cost computers, accessories and repair service for individuals, families and businesses. Some prices can be up to 50% less than what you’d pay for if you were buying new. Buying refurbished goods can also allow you to get older models that are no longer sold in stores.
- Buying refurbished electronics instead of dumping in landfills can bring a second life to the device. This can leave a very positive impact on the environment and save it from getting polluted through the harmful spreading of the hazardous components into the atmosphere.
