If you want to buy a used camera this year, you have noticeably more competition than you did two years ago. MPB, one of Europe's largest used-gear dealers, moved more than 564,000 cameras, lenses and accessories in its 2025 financial year, reported in January 2026. Net revenue climbed 19...

Ten days. That's how narrow the window is where your phone loses the most money. Not from scratches, not from a tired battery. Just from the date.
Tips
The screen flickers, the phone is eleven months old, and the order confirmation? Buried somewhere in your inbox. Warranty without a receipt stops being hypothetical at that exact moment, and if you also need the right order to file a complaint, the proof of purchase is the first thing you'll need...
10.79 euros. That was the whole gap, on 3 September 2026, at one single retailer, between a 128 GB iPhone 13 graded “Gut” (good) and the same model with the same storage graded “Sehr gut” (very good). Not fifty euros. Not eighty. Ten euros and some change.

That single difference is why this corner of the market behaves unlike the rest of it. Anyone shopping for refurbished headphones carries two worries at once: a glued-in battery that isn't swappable at home, and a device that spent its previous life in somebody else's ear. Both worries are fair....

529 euros for a PS5. 709 euros for an Xbox Series X. Both refurbished, both at the same retailer, both listed on the same day (as of 2 September 2026). And that's where the trouble starts.
Tips
A first phone lives a rough life. School bag, playground, bus seat, lent to a friend, retrieved two days later. So when you shop for a refurbished phone for kids, the question is rarely which camera wins. It's the more boring one: what happens when the thing breaks?
Tips
You picked the refurbished device because it's cheaper. Then checkout offers you "from €76.50 a month". Sounds harmless.
€20,700. That's the average cost of one child's entire school career in Germany, from the first day to graduation, according to an idealo study published in 2017. A laptop for students is one single line in that total. But it's probably the line where a family can shift several hundred euros...

Two notebooks, the same RTX 4060, about 300 euros apart in price. And the expensive one pushes fewer frames. That sounds like a typo in the spec sheet. It isn't, because the laptop graphics card only tells you half the story at best.

159 euros for an iPad. That is a real listing at a German refurbisher as of 28 August 2026, and for that money you would otherwise get a no-name budget tablet off a supermarket shelf. The catch sits somewhere else entirely. With a refurbished iPad, the price tag tells you almost nothing about...

"Very good" is not a description of anything. It's a brand name, and every shop owns a different one. Someone shopping for a refurbished iPhone reads the same two words on two seller pages and ends up with two fairly different phones in the basket.
