Default How reliable is 2nd hand hp

Anyone here got buy 2nd hand hp and than the hp spoild awhile after that..?

So far I have bought 2 2nd hand hp which was a few years ago. The 1st hp was ok. 2nd hp after a while only got problem liao can't use.

And is Blazing a reliable shop to buy 2nd hand hp? Because I see they open so many branches in singapore so I think they must be selling very good condition hp which is why customers keep coming back to buy their hp.

Some people sell their 2nd hand HP is because they need $ or they want to trade in when they buy a new hp.

I myself got 4 hp. They are all quite old but still working perfectly fine. want to sell it but when I hear prices like $10, $20, I will rather keep it as a spare hp.

erm but sometime if u suay will get a phone spoilt in weeks bah just be careful bah when buying check all the function working properly or not lor

to fall in love is always easy
to start a relationship is always simple
to build it, is always tough
to maintain it, is 'better said than done'
to break off, is 'easier said than done'
to remain friends after u broke off, is never possible
to forget the memories is 'always doing but never succeeding'
to heal the pain within is hard and tough and never near simple
but one has to try to heal your own heart...

actually i would rather pay more to get a new 1.

i heard that some shops chg the spare parts and give u not so original spare parts. of cos not all shops are like that. see whether the owner got moral or not.

some ppl i've seen.. drop the hp in toilet bowl or on the floor, on nv spoil, go sell their hp away.

daz y 1st hand better. eh im not here to smash ppls 2nd hand shop signboard ar. no offence.

i agree with bleahz....

i myself hv seen my own frens, who do tat and they went to sell their phones as soon as they drop their phones..... and to my knowledge, the 2nd hand stores actually, chg the covers and repackage them as new.....

so sometimes, its better to get it brand new. Unless the model tat u want is no longer available in the market and u reali like it. but do try to chk the condition as best as u noe how b4 u buy them
