Brand new vs Pre-owned iPhones

September is far gone Its November and apple has finally brought out something awesome, apple lovers are thirsty for the tech of the century and old iPhone owners are sort of mad at the whole frenzy simply because its another hunt for cash. 


Regardless of what end users feel, the market is always buzzing, there are those who buy brand new outrightly and then there are those that simply buy off from those that sell their old ones. Its like the ecosystem, there would never be a vacuum or a waste. 



Here is our opinion at #AbsoleTechBlog about all this frenzy. We call it a frenzy simply because its a heavy fiest fast and very rapid sales and buzz. Buying a used item, computer, phone or gadget could seem like a smart deal but is it? 
Price, cost, quality and longevity come into question but eventually the winner always is who feels he gets the best deal. So it begs the question , "who gets the best deal?" Used items always and always comes with an issue in the back ground, there is a blidn spot the second hand buyer fails to probe, which is - "why did the previous owner decide to sell?" Research has shown that 9 out of 10 times a customer uses a product he or she has full satisfaction with until all satisfaction juice is completely sucked up...don't ask us where we got this from, but its a known fact.



Even deals that seem to be made simply because the former owner needs money usually end up to be a case of the new owner paying more for less. I mean there are perks with buying a new product - warranty, optimum quality, full accessories, peak performance as well as a bunch of other perks the brand new owner gets as value for money. Above all is the peace of mind. 
Buying a preowned products could bring more demons than angels, there are issues of lack of original accesories, hidden problems where the person has to "manage" as well as the issue of history. You never know where the product has been or where its from as opposed to a brand new device where you know its from the manufacturer straight to the distributor and then off course you.
