No longer a dirty thing, buying used is now seen as a rather reasonable and even quite agreeable alternative to paying top dollar for what is functionally equivalent and thus essentially the same thing. This goes for Verizon Cell Phones to automobiles. In another instance college students have long understood the value behind buying used textbooks, such that textbook companies most deliberately reissue new editions of their more popular titles every other year or so just to force a perpetual income stream (they would beg to differ that this is too cynical a view of their business, of course, but businessmen are not known for their altruistic views, either). Indeed, the aforementioned practice of dumpster diving appears to be associated with college students and the college-educated.
But our concerns are more middle-class and "bovinely respectable," and so we will examine purchasing used items such as Verizon Cell Phones instead of getting them for free. After all, we must feel good about ourselves, particularly in these tough economic times, and the easiest way to feel good about oneself is to spend money - that is, to experience one's own (sense of one's own) power! So despite the items being used, we will pay money for them instead of meeting up with a bunch of socialists and anarchists over an e-mail listserve to dumpster dive. And anyway, some things aren't likely to be found while dumpster diving, like used Verizon cell phones, for example - besides which service subscriptions would be needed as well.
So, for example, used Verizon cell phones would clearly have to be bought. And unlike something found in a dumpster, a used cell phone would come with a full warranty guaranteeing performance. It may even be practically brand-new, actually, if it has also been "refurbished," which means rebuilt to brand-new specifications. Though more and more synonymous, some vendors still make the distinction between the merely "used" and the specifically "refurbished" (or "rebuilt"). So be sure to inquire as to any differences when considering purchasing pre-owned cell phones. "Used" may simply mean "pre-owned" and not even "pre-owned and tested to perform like new," but "refurbished" always means "pre-owned and rebuilt where necessary to perform and even sometimes look like new."
Buying used Verizon cell phones is a great way to own the latest technology without the latest prices. Whereas dumpster diving is definitely getting yesterday's food or yesterday's fashion in clothes and furniture, purchasing a used or refurbished cell phone is a smart way to obtain today's technology at yesterday's prices.
