So, why is buying used cubicles a better idea than buying them brand new? And what are the disadvantages?
Advantages
Save Money
Used cubicles, as opposed to new, are going to save you and your company quite a handful of money, whilst hopefully keeping the quality as high as possible. Now it's unlikely you'll get the newest name brands such as Herman Miller, so it really depends on what quality you want for what price. However I can tell you that the quality of used products is going up, and the price is staying the same at 25% to 30% of the original price.
When you are looking at used cubicles, don't always go for the first option, look around. Maybe check popular auction sites or newspaper advertisements for the best deals, and if possible get a first hand look before you purchase. Check the used cubicle has everything you want before you buy. Large enough doors? Fabric covered panels? Does it match your office design? You get the picture.
Stay Green
When you buy used cubicles you are saving trees, you are saving the earth! Not quite 'saviour' status but it's always nice to know you are helping the cause to keep your carbon footprint down, plus it's a great excuse to buy the cubicles used.
Disadvantages
Choice
At the lower end of the price scale in anything, you are going to struggle to find something that fits your needs perfectly, you may have to make some sacrifices in what you want out of your cubicles. Maybe the colour scheme may not be perfect, or the size may be a little off. You will have to make the decision yourself about whether the price is worth the sacrifice.
Warranty
Unfortunately with second hand products, a lot of the time the warranty has ran out, so if anything happens to the used cubicles you will not get any money back. This is another clause you will have to decide upon, whether you think it's worth the risk or not.
So there are a few disadvantages to buying used compared to buying new, whether the risks outweigh the benefits is up to you. There are always choices to make when buying used products. Of course you get the better price at the end of the day which may be of more vital importance to your business
