Discover the benefits of refurbished products, and how they can complement new ones.

You know it's supposed to mean more bang for your buck, but for some, the term "refurbished" stirs up more questions than confidence: "Am I
buying someone's hand-me-down’s with a few new parts thrown in?" "Will the software be out-of-date?"

Fortunately, these and other common questions about remanufactured products are easily answered, allowing you to make the smartest buy
for your needs. Below, we'll discuss what refurbished products really are, where they come from, how to buy them, and why refurbished is
sometimes the best choice.

What is "refurbished"?
In general terms, refurbished could also be referred to as remarketed, equivalent to new, or remanufactured.  A refurbished ATM is offered on
just about all product lines: cash dispensers, self service terminals, even the newer generation terminals.  They are products that have been
returned for a variety of reasons and then put through a rigorous re-manufacturing process.

Where do refurbished products come from?
•        Customer returns and cancelled orders - products that leave a manufacturer's warehouse and can not be sold as new.
•        Damaged products - Products returned because of cosmetic flaws or damage during shipping.
•        Overstocks - Items that are returned by the seller to make room for newer product lines.
•        Trade-in programs – Products customers have returned in order to upgrade.
•        Factory loaner equipment –  used for trade shows, customer events, or solution centers that have been returned.

How is a product remanufactured?
Every refurbished product is restored by the original manufacturer to its original condition and performance. Each item is thoroughly tested,
broken or defective parts are replaced, and then tested verified.

All refurbished products are upgraded to meet current performance specifications. For example: cash cassettes are replaced with new ones;
and the latest software patches are installed.

When is refurbished better?
If your budget is lean, the  refurbished products offer high quality, warrantied product at a low cost. For some applications, the latest, greatest
technology is a must. In other cases, a remanufactured product is simply a better choice.

For example:
•        Some customers don't require the latest and greatest equipment.
•        If you have a standardized product line, "new" production on that product line has been discontinued.
•        Refurbished equipment may offer the best price/performance value.
•        Software can perform just as effectively using refurbished products as with new.
•        A new product that has longer lead-times may be available in refurbished stock due to a return or cancelled order.

What should I look for when I buy refurbished?
There are a number of things to keep in mind when you buy refurbished product. Here are a few tips:

•        Be sure your product was refurbished by the original manufacturer.
•        Buying directly from the manufacturer ensures your product has been remanufactured and tested to meet quality standards.
•        Act now – refurbished product inventory turns over quickly.  
•        Check the software, service, and support options – Can I put the equipment on my service contract?
