qball.org's Click of the Week is a helpful little click for when you are looking to save some money on a purchase. Dumping Goods.com is one of the many places that specialize in selling discontinued and refurbished technology products. Now, we all know consumer electronics and technical products have a long lifespan, but their consumer appeal lasts approximately eight months. (Wow, work isn't just a worthless day at a desk, I have picked up information and passed it along to qball.org's fellow readers)

Anyways, because of the short appeal for popular gadgets, you can imagine that once a new model comes along, there is bound to be some left over product. That is where DumpingGoods comes in. They provide a place to find a little older, but more importantly, cheaper model you are looking for. They also deal refurbished products as well. Now, another note I picked up from work, refurbished defines a wide spectrum of a product. About 60% of the time, a refurbished item is just a customer returning a product he or she did not like or thought they broke when really they had no clue how to use it. The other times, there may be some cosmetic damage or a few glitches that the supplier covers under warranty (usually one year). There is about 10% of actual "refurbished" product that needs to have items replaced and fixed. If it doesn't work, you do have a limited amount of time to return it for a full refund before you are stuck with a paper weight. Either way, no one should feel uncomfortable purchasing refurb (in the business lingo) products.

The only reason I believe DumpingGoods.com stands out from the rest of the clicks that offer the same services is the price. They appear to be quite competitive when pricing these items for the buyer. They have a good deal hear or there that beat their competitors. So, now that everyone is a little wiser in the discontinued and refurbished goods, go check out the Click of the Week and buy that item you wanted about seven months ago.
