A little known option for office equipment is to buy refurbished! Refurbished office equipment has typically been returned and repaired. The equipment can then be resold. What many people do not know is that often times, refurbished equipment is still under the manufacturers warranty and you often purchase an extended warranty from your retailer for as little as $12.00.
