When considering the purchase of a new computer, Dave determined it might be prudent to investigate a second-hand product. Dave actually was in the market for a used laptop and discovered a lot were available for purchase at very reasonable prices. He soon discovered that many of these were simply sold "as is" and could include equipment that would not have much of a shelf life left. Dave really did his research and found that there are now companies that exist who are in the business of leasing computer equipment to large corporations and this leasing usually includes routine maintenance and timely upgrades. At the end of the lease a lot of these same corporations choose to enter a new agreement that includes new equipment so that they can maintain state-of-the-art technology at all times. That means that the previously held computers are returned to the leasing company where they are usually offered for sale to anybody in the market for a low price and are thinking of buying a second-hand computer. These companies offered much more peace of mind to Dave and he decided to eventually buy a refurbished laptop that exactly fitted his needs. Following are the four main influences in the decision that Dave made:

1. He found out that each and every previously owned notebook computer this company sold was subject to a comprehensive inspection. This check-up included a thorough cleaning and an evaluation that diagnosed any defects the machine might have. He discovered that each processor that was returned to the leasing company was checked over to inspect the CPU, the memory, and the hard drive.

2. At the time of the inspection any defective part on the notebook computer was either repaired or replaced guaranteeing that the next owner would receive a machine that was in good working order. Buying something that he knew would be delivered almost brand new carried a lot of weight with Dave. He felt it was worth a little extra money for that reassurance and it was still a long way from the price of a new one.

3. Dave also found out that this company was willing to work with him, find out what his computer needs were and then do the upgrading to make it customized to fit his requirements. As an example, he requested the installation of extra memory and he wanted state-of-the-art video and audio cards as well. He found this much to his liking and felt he was receiving great customer service.

4. The main selling point though was the fact that he was able to receive a warranty on anything that went wrong with the notebook computer for one full year. In his mind, Dave felt this was more than enough assurance that he decided made it on a level playing field with buying a new one. He knew that an individual could never make the promise of a warranty and he determined that the company he was dealing with had confidence in their product and the repair work that had been done on his pre-owned notebook computer.
