    I've only ever been scammed on Ebay one time in the 7 or so years I've bought anything. It was my own fault for not checking the ratings of the seller at the time, but I've bought countless refurbished items from them, and I've always almost always gotten new in box or like new anything whenever I was suppose to be getting a lower grade, JBL speakers and headphones have been ones that always go on sale refurbished and I've never had any problems!

      Same, although seller ratings don't mean jack anymore. Ordered a quest 2 from a person with a 99.7% feedback rating and never got it, the scammer was insanely clever too. The listing was a "buyer pays return shipping" but instead of just not doing anything, they gave FedEx a tracking number. That means the item was technically "Shipped" but since there was no item, i had nothing to return.
      As for my Ebay Refurbished story, so far i've only bought one thing, Skullcandy Crushers. They arrived in perfect condition, in a clearly non-original box, but was still skullcandy branded, and it even had a few original accessories.

    as someone who actually worked at a computer store I know for a fact that products having a recertified mark on it means 2 things it was a fully working return likely with an incomplete or damaged box or it came in for warranty repair as what they do is they have a stack of these re-certified items that they sent out for RMA claims and those that are actually repaired gets boxed and is then either added to the RMA pile or is sent out for sale at a discount.

So you can pay $150-170-200 for them and keep them running and sounding great basically forever. Highly recommend them.

    I feel like really good deals don’t exist anymore from anywhere but garage sales, or online classifieds with sellers that just don’t know anything about what they are selling. Back 5-10+ years ago there were actually good Black Friday deals, and some much cheaper refurb stuff. Now the prices are so close to new (or sometimes the same or more than new on sale) that you might as well just spend the extra 5% price to avoid used stuff. I feel like sellers are way more educated and now look for uneducated buyers that THINK they are saving a bunch of money.

    I had a horrible experience with eBay refurbished. I bought an excellent condition Samsung galaxy s22 for my mom as a gift. after receiving it, held onto it for a while before gifting her the phone. After she got it she notice on calls, there was a screechy sound that didn’t happen all the time but frequently. After taking the phone back from her the seller refused to replace it because 30 days had passed. eBay also wouldn’t give me a refund for the same reason. And the warranty doesn’t cover items that arrived broken. So I now have a $500 paper weight. That may not be your experience but it was mine for the first time purchasing on eBay refurbished.

Sent it in for replacement and they basically said "you don't actually want this phone so we're just gonna refund you" and I was pissed.

    The thing about ebay refurbs is you aren't buying the item from Ebay the company.. You are buying the item from a third party that was given permission to enroll in "ebay refurbished program"... There are 2 types of sellers that would qualify for this kinda thing. The actual manufacturer of the item or a large volume 3rd party seller with "some" manufacturer/vendor connections.. Obviously direct from Manufacturer would be best , it's kinda a gamble with the Large 3rd party vendor probably the same as buying used... As all they need is to be part of a large seller account with "some" vendor connections..

    I bought my Chromebook from an ebay refurbished seller, which was listed as very good, which I agree with and would say it was generally better besides one part that clearly had fall damage which bent the case around the volume buttons that I never use.
    155$ for DT770? Holy shit they are expansive in the US than, DT770 cost like 150€ Brand new and are constantly on a discount down to 120€. Also, some mainboards come with a fairly powerful DAC onboard, my old MSI Z87 GD-65 came with a 250 ohm DAC on board, not the greatest DAC, but it could drive 250ohm.
    There is physically no reason to ever buy refurbished earbuds, especially not when the earbuds cost half an egg brand new. There are so many really strong offers at 60-80 bucks.

    You got ripped off on those DT 770 Pro 250 ohm, they're only $159 on Amazon right now, and the 80 ohm variant is $150.
    I bought a pair of 990 Pros used on eBay last year for $67, shipping included. Cable was no good, but I planned on doing the Custom Cans mini XLR conversion anyway, and they run just fine
