Why Buy Used?

There is so much used hardware available now - and so much emphasis on cutting costs - that the secondary market is no longer a niche business. Nor does it appear to be a transient, post-boom phenomenon. Experts point to four factors to support this assertion: 1. Chips don't wear out like automobile engines, meaning technology will function for years to come. 2. The sheer volume of hardware production and appetite for consumption created during the late '90s can support the secondary market almost indefinitely. Also, consider the startup, MicroCast, which earned $800,000 in revenue between 1999 and 2000, filed for Chapter 11 in late 2000 and left behind hardware valued at $40 million. 3. Wholesale prices are vastly more attractive than retail costs, and they're a prudent consideration in a tight economy. Once companies get a taste of high-functioning, lower cost equipment, retail prices will look ridiculous. 4. The proliferation of services supporting the secondary market are making it easier and easier for buyers to participate. Many CIO's already can't imagine not having the option to buy used.
