There's a trick to buying refub products. Make sure they're FACTORY refurbished. What this means is someone like HP's manufacturing facility as put new &quot;guts&quot; into the product. If it's not factory refurbished, then that means &quot;Joe's Repair Shop&quot; fixed a part and is reselling it as new. I just received this scanner two days ago and it's great! Has a one year warranty through HP just like a new one.

It works pretty good. They advertise it as a 3300cse but it is actually a 3300c. Regardless, it's a good basic scanner. I went and picked one up since I live in the area. They wanted to charge me like almost 10 bucks to deliver it five miles.
