Help please, best place to buy a refurbished CF-30?
Posted: Thu Apr 17, 2014 3:37 pm
Hello,
I'm looking to buy a used CF-30 hopefully in great condition. I'm returning the "Refurbished to New" CF-30 that I bought from RuggedToughLaptops.com because it looks like it came out of a war zone and just cleaned up a bit before shipping it to me. A disappointing experience.
They tell me that the MK3 model with GPS doesn't come with the GPS transceiver antenna on the top right-hand side of the screen; they've never seen that feature. That the built-in Sierra air card has the antenna internally. And that they don't know what WinFast Navigator software is. I'm kind of frustrated trying to discern between BS and facts.
These units sold by RuggedToughLaptops.com seem to be put together from bits and pieces of other units.
I guess my question is, should I look for one whose components are from original assembly? With the software CDs and original software configuration?
Seems like eBay has several in original configuration with all inclusive as above mentioned.
Any recommendations?
Yes I'd prefer a loaded one and will pay for it gladly if it's in great shape. Help please?
And terribly sorry for the long post, just my frustration showing through.
