1. Whats the difference between New, Refurbished and Second user?
Refurbished covers any equipment that has been technically sold before. This may include units that were never delivered and never opened, to units delivered to customers and immediately returned. Refurbished stock may include items with minor cosmetic damage, which in no way affects the performance. If the customer has returned the unit, it will be thoroughly checked and re-boxed factory level. Second user units have been sold and used by a third party for a period exceeding six months. These units are also thoroughly checked and re-boxed at factory level. The condition of these units will vary slightly from as new to small cosmetic blemishes.
2. Why should I buy from Swindon Computers?
Swindon Computers is one of the fastest growing independantly owned Computer Stores offering new, discounted, surplus and factory refurbished computer & laptop equipment within the UK.
Our success is based on the low price of the brand name stock we sell, along with the excellent, ongoing customer service and support from our dedicated and experienced onsite staff.
We buy in bulk and sell direct to pass our savings on to you, the customer. These discounts allow you to replace, expand or upgrade your IT equipment more often, letting you take advantage of the rapid advancements in computer technology, keeping you up to date and ahead of everyone else, at a fraction of the costs.
We offer PC and Laptop buyers a genuine value alternative to our overpriced competitors coupled to a unique, personal touch rarely found in a market of limited choice and inadequate support. Specialising in individual, compatible systems our tailor made service is focused on meeting the needs of each and every client.
3. Why should I buy refurbished?
All refurbished systems sold by Swindon Computers are better value than a new alternative without any compromise on quality. All Swindon Computers products are the same systems sold by the worlds leading PC manufacturers. The only difference being, that our "next to new," machines have been prepared and checked twice inside and out.
Every refurbished machine that leaves the Swindon Computer's Store has been rebuilt and repackaged to the standard expected from a brand new, brand name machine. The low cost of our products is a result of the volume we buy and the money we save by selling directly to customers over the phone and over the Internet.
We supply fast affordable and ready-to-use systems, with an extensive choice of cutting edge PC technologies and after-sales cover to suit everybody. However, the main reason to buy our quality refurbished products is the savings you can make.
