Greetings,
I've been shopping around for displays on multiple web stores and I have basically decided on the Acer H236HL series monitor (link points to Newegg.com). However, through my web search I have stumbled upon a similar display but it carries the refurbished tag on it and the price tag is substantially lower than a "new" out of the box monitor, which makes it an interesting proposition and brings the following questions:
1. Does a "refurb" tag on a product mean that it was damaged before being resold?
2. Is the quality of the product lower than a new monitor?
3. How's the warranty period on these kind of products?
4. Any other considerations for someone buying these refurbished products?
Thanks for the community's assistance on this matter.
