#1 What is the warranty on the refurbished product? It says 'minimum 90 days' but the new remotes come with a year. do we know definitively how long?
I have always bought refurbished remotes (I'm on my third or fourth now). They have lasted every bit as long as a new one would have, I just wanted to upgrade. I've never had to use their warranty service, but I always took that to mean they'll fix or replace your refurb within the 90 day period, and after that it would be at their discretion whether they would provide you with full or partial service, depending on the nature of the problem.
