What is the difference in used vs. reconditioned equipment?

“Used Equipment” has no standard of control. Brokers sell equipment back and forth in the market and sometimes never actually see what they represent. “Reconditioned /Refurbished” equipment is always purchased, brought back to our main facility in Charlotte, NC where it undergoes extensive testing, repairs, upgrades, and re-configured to meet the current need of the customer. That is to say, working 100% technically and looking cosmetically brand new as well.
