What does Factory Serviced mean? Does this mean it is a used machine?

I found that if it is factory serviced than it is restoredto the best quality possible for use. I currently own one and mine works like a dream as if it were new.

A one year warranty on factory defects. Suggest calling MBM for info as to any additional warranty available.I would also suggest that just routine maintenance would keep this machine operating for some.

Used are perhaps computer that someone leased for a period of time & then their lease is up & the computer returned. Refurbished is a computer that was returned either to the factory or store because of problems, & not necessarily functional problems ...They check them out, fix them , clean them up & resell them. I have purchased 6 computers including lap tops & to date I'm not disappointed. They all worked fine.

As far as I know, it is brand new (refurbished in the factory), but it does not have the full warranty. I got one in July and it`s working perfectly. I have other experiences with refurbished equipment and never had any problem. Maybe it`s interesting to contract a third-party warranty just as an addiitonal protection.

Thnaks for your reply about the length of the warranty and that the second one was fine. Does that mean it was in the "new" condition as Amazon states it to be? If so, you should up date your review and maybe the rating?... It would be helpful to know that things turned out OK and to your expectations, with buying a remanufactured machine. ;-) I almost didn't pull the trigger on ordering one, with it only getting a 1 star rating. Thank you for your time in answering my questions. Mine is suppose to ship tomorrow,.. just keeping my fingers crossed.

Brand new from factory. I think they have to market it as re-stocked, refurbished, etc...see note below from Darryle though, this is true.

I'm not sure if you are asking to the right people, I think you tried to contact a seller that is selling this USED, right? All the ones that answered you are owners of brand new processors. If you are trying to contact a used processor seller, and don't know how, let me know and I lead you Alex.

Oh....mine was bought new and came in a box with a manual. No idea about used machines.

IN MY PERSONAL OPINION, refurbished is a bit better. Used you have no idea if everything works or if the computer has "issues". Refurbished means that a tech has gone through and made sure the computer is in working order. Neither are new but the gamble is better with refurbished and the cost is a lot less. Mine did come with a loose power wire but I knew enough to fix it. There is usually tech support for a refurbished one also.

i think it actually means that the product is refurbished, (meaning it broke at once and was repaired)

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.

Unless it says it's refurbished, then it is new. We ordered one last year and received a new one.

Amazon has definitions of Reconditioned, Refurbished, etc. that you can review. See the product for warranty info. I assume they are tested after reassembly but I'm not sure. You should ask the seller.

I wouldn't imagine so. They were also dicks about customer service as well. My unit was out of warranty by a few months, and they refused to repair it for less than 100$ plus shipping. I took the machine apart myself to see if I could fix it, only to find that it was obviously a refurbished unit, even though it had been sold as new. There were plastic feet that had been snapped off and then glued back together (poorly) inside the housing, along with a wealth of mismatched screws. The broken part of the unit is a proprietary motor/fan housing which can not easily be replaced.In short, don't buy this unit. It doesn't roast very well, and it's prone to breaking.

Mine was brand new with a warranty...which you will need because it is one buggy machine.
