There are subtle differences between a desktop that’s refurbished and one that’s considered open box. Refurbished desktops are pre-owned computers that have been tested and inspected by experts and brought back to the manufacturer’s standard. If necessary, parts are replaced, cosmetic repairs are made, or updated software is installed. An open box desktop is one that has been purchased and returned shortly afterward. These desktops typically have little or no use prior to being returned.
