Hi mylot-ers... just ask...
Do you buy second hand electronic products such as cellphones, laptop, pc, digital camera, speaker, fan, etc?
Why do you want to buy them? If not, why?
Don't you afraid if the products will damage soon?
Do you believe your seller if the product is ok?
For me, i dont want to buy second hand product, i prefer the brand new products with the original warranty, international warranty for few years will be the best.
I dont want to buy second hand appliances, i just afraid the product is not good as before, and i cant totally believe the seller.. i dont know why.

i often get scared to buy second hand electronic devices because you'll always be having doubts or have questions about why it was even sold by the owner in the first place. often i end up thinking that maybe he's selling it because it's faulty and he's trying to trick consumers to buy it.

No, I never like used electronics. You never know what condition they are in on the inside. :/

I hate second hand things also. I have had to buy them before when I didn't have much money to spend for things. I have replaced all of those things now with new things. I don't like second hand things either. I like nice things but sometimes if I cannot afford something new, used will be okay until I can buy new.

One thing I would not want to buy used are electronics, you never know what conditional there really in and could easily wear out not too long after you get it.

my very first pc was second hand. it was just because i wanted to have a pc really badly but didn't have the money to buy a new one. i was a poor student :p but i also knew the person i bought it from so i felt comfortable.
the problem with buying a second hand computer is that it will be outdated pretty quickly, and you'll either have to upgrade or buy another one anyway. so it's just better to buy a new one if you can afford it. with continuously developing technology, even new computers become outdated in a few years.
i've never bought any other second hand electronics.
