There are plenty of tech creators who have covered them, including Linus. But long story short, they have been trying to pass off refurbished or even simply returned products as new and then blaming the customers for the issues when they are inevitably returned (again). This probably would not actually effect this actual build since it's like pretty low end but they have also just been shipping things that are marked refurbished but don't actually work apparently. It has been around a year since this news broke, and I have not heard any real news since then though. But I would not buy simply out of principle. <cite>KokoroAkechi posted [p:974130327] in People wit...
