Customer Review

  • Reviewed in Canada on January 11, 2025
    I initially planned to rate this refurbished PC as "very good" instead of "excellent" due to a light scratch across the top of the case. However, after closer inspection, I discovered that the components had been replaced with the cheap no name parts.

    The 256GB 2.5" SSD is a Kingfast, a brand known for its poor reliability and high failure rates. The RAM is from a completely unrecognizable brand—I couldn't even identify the manufacturer. The only references I found were broken links on AliExpress and Alibaba. Additionally, the power supply is a generic, non-OEM replacement.

    It’s unclear if the original SSD and RAM failed testing and were replaced, or if the seller deliberately swapped out parts to resell them and substituted them with the cheapest alternatives. Either way, it's disappointing. Also, leaving a 69-cent sticker on the SSD is a glaring oversight and reinforces the impression of cutting corners.

    I've purchased refurbished systems before, but I've never encountered such low-grade components. At over $200, this feels like a scam. If this system were priced around $100, I might give it a pass, but at this price point, I expected far better quality.
