Refurb email - as good as new email? - Z - 12-17-2008

I'm looking to purchase an email soon, and am not sure if I should purchase a new one, or if I'm okay purchasing a refurb email. Does anyone have any experience with refurb email? Are they safe to purchase?

I have an email that you might be interested in. PM me (no refurbed PMs, please).

They lack that new email smell.
In my humble opinion, of course.

Check around your local thrift stores. I just recently picked up a used, almost mint condition email at my local Goodwill Store. I could probably make a profit selling it on eBay.

Anybody get any silent upgrades?

I think those are called re-mails.

Well, my opinion is that a refurb email is better than new, because it's had an additional level of quality control by Apple. I like knowing that someone has caringly looked over my email and made sure that it's in tip-top shape. No more typos or poor grammar. Of course, the packaging is not as flashy as a new email, but as long as it works the same, I'd go for it.

I think there was a place that sold refurb emails really cheap, but you had to send in an empty one with your order.

Just make sure you don't accidentally the whole mail folder.
