I have purchased two refurbished smartwatches from ebay. First one LG Urbane 2nd edition for $60. Came in great condition- no box or cradle- watch only. Only downfall Android Wear OS 1.5, but the watch functions great and looks almost new- no scratches on the screen. My second watch is the Samsung Frontier S3, refurbished, $99. Now this watch I had to do a double take on the ebay listing because I got it brand new. No scratches on the bezel or screen or the back. Everything functions and the battery holds a charge for almost 3 days.
Vip outlet grade A most of the times is mint condition. I rarely had problems and when you do the returns are very easy. Sometimes they even offer partial refunds if the condition isnt up to your standards
They shouldn't even be allowed to call it refurb. "Used" is a much more accurate description.
Not quite, boss. They should be and should continue to be called seller refurbished, because this bull craps are usually from local repair shops that rebuild them from parts of non working units. While some (or most, whichever you prefer) will disagree and rebut that seller refurbished can also mean professionally inspected and cleaned, I am sticking with the "conspiracy theory" that these electronic junk (however, please forgive me if you are environmentalists who consider rebuilding and then selling these products as ways to recycle and to make the earth a little happier, and I will rest my case, although you won't make your wallet happy when these junk do last as long as they should. Anyway......) should be distinguished from "used" or "preowned," which is supposed to mean owned and or used by individuals who are not rebuilding electronics on regular basis for profits. But don't get me wrong, items labeled used or preowned can still come from these shops or might have been repaired by them. Who knows. It just depends on the sellers' integrity, although not a lot of people know what integrity means.
Vip Outlet (from the 3 orders I've done with them over the last few years) has always exceeded my expectations for what a refurb is.
My refurbished Series 4 from them came in great condition with all accessories, original box and 10 months of warranty left on the watch.
So you are saying your series 4 was seller refurbished and had 10 months Apple warranty left? In case if it was serviced by non Apple technician, shouldn't that void the original warranty?
Got it for 115.55 after 15% off from VIP and PIC2SAVE coupon from the following link. https://www.ebay.com/itm/113377040729
It immediately went OOS, but 5 became available again after I purchased so YMMV. Same condition - Grade A.

Maybe I have been extremely lucky.
