If you're looking for something that goes easy on the pocket without compromising on utility, used office workstations can prove to be a feasible option. Purchasing a brand new workstation could be a huge expense, with the cost of a new modular office workstation being $2500 or more. Used or remanufactured workstations could help you save a lot of money when this expense comes up. They are also an ideal option for offices or workplaces that are looking to expand the work area, or accommodate more employees without spending too much money. More than half the market for workstations consists of used and remanufactured workstations and several varieties of these workstations are available at different price points. At the very top are truly remanufactured workstations, which are often as good as new workstations but are often available at half the original cost. Buying used office workstations is different from buying a used car. Your choice is not restricted to what's available in the lot. Akin to buying new, you can pick a brand you like and choose the colors and fabrics that will match your office. Before being installed in your office, the workstation is usually taken apart and inspected. The metallic parts are sanded and painted or powder coated. New fabric is added and missing parts are replaced. Some parts such as shelves and pedestals that subject to greater use are often replaced with brand new pieces. Remanufactured workstations are often available with the same warranties as new workstations. Custom remanufactured workstations can be delivered faster than new workstations and usually cost 30% to 50% less. The more budget conscious buyers can pick up used workstations in an "as is" condition. The dealer usually fixes serious damage, if any, and replaces any missing parts. However, you don't get a choice of fabric and colors and it only has a very limited warranty, if at all. |
