Here are four reasons to buy electronics second-hand –
and a few reasons why it’s best to do it at Cash Converters

With technology rapidly evolving, many people are drawn to the idea of upgrading their home entertainment systems. However, brand-new audio and TV equipment can be expensive, making second-hand options an attractive alternative. Buying pre-owned devices offers more advantages than you might think, and the cons are outweighed by the thorough service Cash Converters offer their customers.

1. The obvious: savings, saving, savings!
One of the biggest advantages of purchasing second-hand audio and TV equipment is the significant cost savings. Pre-owned devices are often sold at a fraction of their original retail price, allowing you to get high-quality products without breaking the bank. This is especially appealing for people looking to build a home theatre system or upgrade their sound system on a budget.

2. Immediately available
When buying new, especially during high-demand periods like holidays or after new product launches, you might face stock shortages or long wait times for certain models. With second-hand electronics, the products are already available and can be obtained immediately, avoiding the hassle of pre-ordering or waiting for restocks.

3. Eco-friendly`
In a time when the world is full of news about the amount of waste humans generate, it helps to know that buying pre-loved electronics extends their lifetime and reduces electronic waste and pollution. Many electronics end up in landfills, leaching dangerous chemicals into the ground. Reusing viable electronics reduces the demand for new manufacturing and its associated environmental impact, as well as lowering the actual electronic waste.

Remember: Most products from Cash Converters carry a six-month guarantee, which means if something is faulty within six months of purchase, it can be repaired, replaced and refunded.

4. Access to high-end models
With the cost savings you have on second-hand electronics, it is very possible that you might find a high-end product at a great deal. This allows you to enjoy top-tier products at a more affordable price point.

Now, if you’re still not sold on pre-loved electronics, you should at least stop by your nearest Cash Converters. You never know what you might find!
