1- Is refurbished product OK?
What is the meaning of refurbished?
Refurbished products, such as phones, laptops and computers, are items that were previously owned and were no longer wanted or have become damaged. Once a second-hand item has been received, the company or brand completely “refurbishes” the item to the highest possible quality. This involves solving any faults, resetting the item to its original state and more so that it is like the product is brand new. Once refurbished, the item can be sold once again.
2- Why refurbished is better than new?
Are refurbished products trustworthy?
As technology advances over time, brand-new products will become more and more expensive. As a result, the refurbished product sector is growing at a mighty rate. Refurbished items have a much greater quality than most people expect. After extensive procedures and testing, refurbished products often work just as well as brand-new products, with the main difference being in cosmetics. Refurbished products are fully tested on every feature here at Stock Must Go, they may not be brand-new, but they are extremely well made. The methods used to refurbish products differ between companies, but all ensure great quality.
Refurbished products are also much cheaper compared to brand-new products and are graded to display their quality.

3- What is grading
After the refurbishing procedure is complete, the items are graded based on numerous factors. For example, here at Stock Must Go, three grades are displaying the item’s quality: grade A, B and C. Grade A means the item is in excellent condition, grade B means the item is in good condition and grade C means used condition. These grades are determined by a number of features, we have a Grading Explained page on our website to help you understand more!
- New - Brand new sealed with full manufacture warranty.
- Open Box - Seal has been broken on the packaging but the item is in new condition.
- Refurbished Pristine – The product has very minor if any signs of use
- Refurbished Excellent – The product has few marks and signs of use
- Refurbished Good – The product has moderate marks and signs of use
4- Is it worth it to buy refurbished?
Does refurbished mean good?
It is far cheaper to buy one of these products over a brand-new product, while also being at an extremely high quality. Save yourself money as the product you buy will be of the highest possible quality. No matter what you are looking for, whether cheap or expensive, you can find a great collection of great quality items. That, buying refurbished products is also very beneficial for the environment, as items can be repaired or refurbished instead of being thrown away or dumped. This reduces huge amounts of waste.
Not only that but warranties are often offered alongside refurbished products in case there are any issues.
