Why You Shouldn’t Buy Computers in Volume on Amazon

Amazon has become a go-to for many businesses, offering convenience and a vast selection. However, when it comes to purchasing computers in volume, relying solely on Amazon can present significant challenges. Let’s delve into some of the key reasons why:

1. A Maze of Vendors with Varying Warranties and Cosmetics:

  • The Vendor Jungle: Amazon hosts a multitude of sellers, from reputable brands to smaller, less established players. This diverse landscape means dealing with a patchwork of warranty policies.
  • Warranty Confusion: Each vendor may have different warranty terms, coverage, and service procedures. This can lead to confusion and frustration when issues arise. With Evergreen Electronics, you’ll get a 2+ Year Warranty on every order, all in one place.  Same team, every day. 
  • “Certified Refurbished” Doesn’t Guarantee Consistency: The term “certified refurbished” is often used loosely. Standards can vary wildly between vendors. Some, like Evergreen Electronics, offer high-quality refurbishments with stringent testing, while others may have much lower standards.
  • Are consistent cosmetics on refurbished equipment important to you (look and feel)?  Buy from different Amazon vendors and prepare for frustration.  Buy from Evergreen and get certified Grade A cosmetics, every time.  We have a <1% return rate because our refurbished quality and cosmetics are simply the best. 


    2. Who to Contact When Things Go Wrong?

    • Support Scattered: Dealing with multiple vendors means navigating a maze of contact points. You might encounter long hold times, unhelpful customer service representatives, no or slow response inquiries, and difficulty determining who is responsible for resolving the issue.
    • Lack of Centralized Support: Unlike purchasing directly from a single reputable vendor, such as Evergreen Electronics, there’s no single point of contact for support when dealing with multiple Amazon sellers. This can lead to delays in issue resolution and increased frustration.
    • When buying directly from Evergreen Electronics, you talk to the same person every time –  Same easy process, same address, same experts handling your issue.


      3. Refurbished Grades: A Hidden Variable

      • Most Amazon vendors offer “Grade A refurbished”, but what does that mean exactly?   Hint:  It means different things to different companies, which means it doesn’t mean much, at all!   There is no standard for refurbished grading, so expect a free-for-all depending on which company you are working with.  
      • Amazon Uniformity:  Amazon does mandate certain product conditions, but if you have purchased refurbished products from different Amazon sellers before, you already know conditions will vary, greatly.
      • Hidden Grades: Without clear and consistent grading systems, it’s difficult to assess the true condition of refurbished units. This lack of transparency can lead to unexpected surprises and potential performance issues. Evergreen Electronics is dedicated to delivering Grade A products every time. And our very consistent <1% return rate and verified 5 star reviews is proof we do it right, every time.

        • Uncertainty regarding part quality
        • Varying cosmetics
