Buying used sounds like a great idea (I've never done it). But, what if you buy from a person, and it breaks two weeks after the delivery? After going through the hassles of getting the component fixed, it will have cost you as much as a new unit with a warrenty. And with the rate that new components break out of the box, I know this has to be a concern.
Or, is this just the risk that one takes? I'm not trying to be contrary, or pro one side or another. It's just that no one really has discussed this aspect of it, though a couple of posts touched on it.
Just wondering,
