it's very misleading to say that dell's refurbished unit has a lot of problems... as stated in dell's refurbished website, all refurbished units were tested and passed before being sold... it's not like dell were selling malfunction refurbished systems... please put a name here... there are many people selling dell's laptops here, it's VERY UNFAIR to other honest sellers here...
That is why I mentioned that NOT ALL are dishonest. One or two are. Let the buyer beware and use his or her discretion before buying. No need to name drop. Again I reiterate, the WTW on the first page clearly states that "NOT ALL".Armed with the knowledge that there are possibilities of refurbished systems being sold and being potrayed as Brand New, prospective buyers can now make informed decisions.

LCD failure. LCD had to be changed. Of course this is probably bad luck on my part because Dell Refurbished systems undergo stringent test and are of good quality. But sadly, the issue here is not about quality nor warranty claims.It is about the Sale of Goods and that the product does not fit the description ie buyer is misled to believe that product is "brand new" but instead is sold a Refurbished product.
Anyway, I am closing the topic as I am fed up and tired of typing. This WTW is merely to make people aware, relate my bad experience and not meant to be such a lengthy discussion. I don't have the time nor energy to keep answering pm's and reply to this thread. Thanks to everyone and good bye.
