USED ​​OR REFURBISHED?
A PRACTICAL EXAMPLE

You may have purchased a used product from friends, relatives or other users online.
As you know, when you choose a used one , you agree to buy the product in the state it is in, with possible defects or wear.

Furthermore, if you have already purchased on the web, you also know that it is not always easy to trust online sellers or exchanges between private individuals without having any guarantee .

If your next used purchase was a PC, in addition to any aesthetic defects, you would have to deal with all the previous owner's data , including possible unsafe software or files that could threaten your security and privacy.

Why then is it so important to only buy refurbished technology and why do it like professionals ? It's true, a refurbished product is still a used product, but thanks to the process that you can read below, expert people have carried out operations on your PC to bring it back to its factory state, excluding any risk and guaranteeing you to all intents and purposes that you have among the hands a device like new .

SELECTION ​

What origins do our refurbished products have? We have always made a very specific choice: to deal mainly with technology coming from the business sphere. This allows us to select devices with a higher quality standard and greater resistance over time compared to consumer products found in large-scale distribution. Most of our devices come from corporate uses and still have a lot to offer in terms of performance .

VISUAL ANALYSIS ​

When the products we have selected for you finally arrive in the laboratory by our technicians, a long process of evaluation, testing and restoration begins. But like any great love story, everything begins with a simple glance : this allows us to give an initial objective assessment of the aesthetic state of conservation of the product and then proceed with an initial thorough cleaning. During this phase all devices that do not meet our quality standards are excluded from the reconditioning process.

RESET AND RESTORE

At work! How do we give new life to devices that have been approved? The first step to take is certainly to perform a reset to bring it back to its factory state: this operation occurs thanks to a consolidated procedure that allows the certified deletion of the data present. Returning a computer to its factory state is like taking a trip back in time!

All settings, apps and drivers that were previously installed on the PC disappear and the PC returns to its original state . No traces of use, a PC like new. And then… what happens? We certainly can't leave it like this. We install and activate the original Windows Pro license , updated to the latest version available at that time. If the device is Apple, the latest verified version made available by the vendor for that particular device.

TEST

After returning the computer to its factory state and installing the correct version of the Operating System, our technicians carry out some specific checks on the functioning of all the components. In this phase, the sensitivity and experience of our colleagues really makes the difference: from the screen to the keyboard, from the USB ports to the audio, from the connection to the drivers: everything is analyzed in detail . This allows us to deliver you only ready-to-use devices, guaranteed for 12 months by professionals.
