is it safe to buy one used? Because its for a teenager and it seams to be slightly breakable i don't want to buy one brand new if it might get smashed after only a month. is it safe to buy one used or should i just go for new?

I buy electronics used all the time. If they are unacceptable, then you just call Amazon. I bought an iPod Suffle used and it's fine. Back when I sold my old IPod, it was perfectly fine, but they had just came out with the video iPods and I got one as a graduation gift. Really no need for two regular iPods, so I sold my old one because the video one was cooler. I got the iPod Shuffle because it's lighter and easier to clip to my shirt when I exercise. My advise? Be VERY aware of exactly what the description says. If it says it's scratched, but works well, then you don't get to be ticked off when it's scratched when it arrives. They TOLD you it was scratched. Also, pay close attention to the seller's rating. Do not buy from anyone who has less than a 94% customer rating. If you do, then look to see why people gave them a low rating. Often, it's just that the item took too long to ship, which in the scheme of things isn't a big deal when saving a ton of money. Just make sure it doesn't say "Item broken, tried to return it but the guy wouldn't respond" kind of comments. You are protected to a certain extent under Amazon.com when you buy from individual sellers.

That depends entirely on who you are buying it from. I bought one used that did not come with a case. I also bought one new that did. You should ask the specific seller whom you might buy from if it will come with a case or not.

This must one offered for sale? used? I don't quite understand the question. I am happy with my purchase though.

They are relatively new, so I am not surprised that they may have some quality issues. But, I have had mine for 3 month and have had no issues with it. I really like it a lot!

Good question! I just bought a refurbished one off ebay for $125. Amazon is a horrible place to find deals on electronics, such as smart phones. I strongly recommend using ebay, just make sure you buy from reputable sellers.

No. Please make sure to buy a new one if you are looking for a new one. Do not buy a used one and think it is new.

It depends on when it was manufactured. Buy it new and you'll be fine. Buy it used and you'll have to check. Typically they're good for 3-5 years from purchase.

When i bought at the time, it was brand New. Refurbished means reconditioned. They get a used/malfunction product and give it a real treat. They should work ok and are less expansvel.

Cathy, I wouldn't know how the used one will be shipped. I bought mine new, it was not assembled. I would want to know why the seller wants to let it go though.

Is this a brand new doll? A local store sells this for a little bit more money, but I want to ensure I am getting a new and not sued doll if I order from Amazon. If this is clear in the ad I am missing it.

Ms Jasmine , your is the only reply I received. I purchased a used one at Good will. Except for missing the tent it looks brand new. And since the children didn't know about the tent attachment. We are quite happy with what we have . Thank you for responding.

We bought a couple of these and they came in shattered. We couldn't get a new one because this model is discontinued. We've tried buying from a number of places and they say allow "x# of weeks for shipping" but we end up getting a note from the seller saying it's discontinued. BUT if you're successful in getting one, would love to know!

Make sure you purchased it from a trusted reseller. There are fake ones around.

Absolutely not. I don't want a replacement. I just feel that Amazon and buyers and wherever else this is sold needs to know that they only last for a month. There are many review on Amazon and elsewhere that say the same thing. If this is not a scam, it's pretty close to being and I'm not saying it is Amazon's fault. People just need to know.
