Does their used Cisco equipment come with a significant warranty?
If they’re not willing to back their refurbished Cisco hardware with a warranty, that probably means they’re not confident in its performance. Look for a vendor that gives you years of coverage, preferably with advance replacement so that you’re completely covered. A vendor that’s willing to back their used Cisco equipment with an extended warranty knows they’re providing quality refurbished Cisco hardware. Do they offer a hardware replacement program? Any reputable vendor will have enough faith in the quality of their product to also offer a replacement program to attach to that hardware. As a consumer, you deserve to partake in the insurance a replacement program provides if you so choose. If the vendor doesn’t provide some sort of replacement offering, that could be a pretty good indication that they don’t believe in the quality of their refurbished Cisco equipment and see a replacement program as a losing venture for them. Is their used Cisco equipment priced almost too cheap? Chan
