what is the difference between refurb vs factory recertified?

Recertified vs. Refurbished
Most people are not aware that recertified and refurbished are pretty much the same thing. There are usually a few key factors that define the difference between the two terms. The first factor is that recertified products often come with a short warranty against functional defects. The warranty time frame is usually somewhere between 30 to 60 days. Refurbished products however are typically sold "as-is" without a warranty.

Recertified
Recertified recently has been used more than refurbished. One reason it has become more popular among retailers is because the term "recertified" gives the buyer the comfort of knowing a thorough inspection process has been completed. Keep in mind what you might feel is a thorough inspection can be totally different from what the manufacturer might feel is a thorough inspection. Each manufacturer has its own standards of recertification. Also it is a plus to know that many recertified products are still covered under the manufacturer's warranty, depending on how old the item is. Even if the product is not covered under a manufacturer warranty the seller often offers a 30 to 60 day warranty.

Refurbished
Refurbished is very similar to recertified, but under normal circumstances a refurbished product will not come with a warranty. It is common for every factory to carry refurbished products because of minor things like missing manuals, torn packages, duplicate purchases by consumers, or damaged boxes. It is possible for a refurbished product to have never even been sold, but was overlooked because of minor damages to the packaging.

With CA recycling fee ($8)and tax, that brings it to around $103 at Kmart. So this is about as good as a Black Friday deal in CA.

Just bought, will use as secondary monitor.

$50 too much!!

I think if people are patient enough, they can get a brand new 32" LED for $125-$150 in the coming weeks. BTW, I dont think that an LED or LCD at this size really matters. Just my honest opinion.

aren't Walmart going to sale this at $78 on BF?

$88 dollars at kmart on 11/23. After bestbuys premier silver early black friday boondoggle, this was a good deal (26" for 99.99 for a lucky few, if there were any).
