Default RE: What do you guys think of Refurbs?

Unless your going after an optic thats retails over $1000.00 new,
I honestly don't think refurboptics are even is even worth considering..
Used is used and the price should reflect at least 35%-40% of the retail price..
Lets face these companies are still making a huge profit at that..
If you really take a hard look and compare refurbish optics to "New"
you'll be lucky to get 20% probably for the most part a discount of 10-15%...
If thats worth it to you great..
But saving45-50 bucks on a refurbished good, for something that retails for $300.00 New,really isn't that appealing
If you find something thats 35-40% grab it, but I'm betting you'll be looking a long time before you do...
