Updated July 21, 2017 Look for a red or green lettering of “Refurbished” on a white background on the packing box. This is the first indicator that you have a refurbished product. Look for a non-descript box, such as one lacking a company name. This will be the second indicator that the product is refurbished. Most refurbished products will come out of a different warehouse/building. Look to see if you have a packing manifest of your unit. Typically it will state that you have ordered one PC computer/laptop instead of the manifest listing all components that are in your computer, like new computers will list. This will be your third indicator. Look to see if you have any stickers for refurbished on your computer/laptop. This will be your fourth indicator. Verify that you have these conditions and you know for sure that you have a refurbished product.
