When your computer hardware budget is slim, consider rebuilt Gateway desktop computers. Some include a free 90-day warranty, for others purchase extended warranties with on-site parts and labor. Certainly, consider using rebuilt desktop computers in non-essential locations, such as a training room or for software testing. Gateway remanufactured computers have been totally refurbished at the factory. Some are products returned by customers in like-new condition. Find rebuilt desktop computers that are compatible with what you already have, or an out-of-stock Gateway remanufactured PC to replace existing systems in your organization.

Some things to consider when buying refurbished Gateway computers:

1. Examine the warranty --Gateway offers a free 90-day satisfaction guaranteed warranty. Warranties on used Gateway desktops offered by other resellers vary, so examine carefully.
2. Inquire about financing plans -- Gateway offers 48-month financing plans at an interest rate of 14.9% for most applicants on refurbished Gateway computers. Other resellers may not have financing plans.
3. Compare price and features --There are several sources for Gateway remanufactured computers, each with its own return, financing, and guarantee policies. Check what accessories come in the box, as some only include the central processing unit.

Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Buy refurbished Gateway PCs directly from Gateway


Gateway, along with other computer manufacturers, makes it a little hard to find the refurbished section, because they want you to consider buying new. If you take the time to navigate the site, however, you can buy used Gateway desktop computers at bargain prices.

I recommend: Use this direct link to cut navigation time to remanufactured Gateway computers. Prices here are higher than in the general marketplace, but the models sold here all have generous amounts of random access memory (RAM) and better warranty and return policies.

Buy Gateway remanufactured computers from online resellers


There are some fantastic deals on refurbished Gateway computers at reseller sites. You will find a greater selection of models and generally lower prices. In addition, they usually come with a keyboard and speakers, but you will often find them to be a little short on RAM.

I recommend: For fast order processing and satisfaction, Tiger Direct is fantastic. In addition, they have great prices and a reasonable warranty program. Another good place to buy refurbished Gateway desktops is RefurbDepot.

Buy a Gateway remanufactured PC from an online auction site


Be very careful ordering rebuilt desktop computers from online auction sites. Check their ratings and return policy thoroughly before purchasing.

I recommend: Online auction site eBay has a storefront for remanufactured Gateway computers, as does Amazon.com.

Tips & Tactics
Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide

  • If you see a remanufactured Gateway PC on the Gateway site that you want, snap it up. Refurbished Gateway desktops go fast, and there might not be another one available.
