---- *Hello friends, how are you all doing today? I hope all is well and you all are having a nice and wonderful day. Today I will be taking part in a contest organized by @lhorgic, titled* ***"Fairly Used or Brand New Items? Which would you rather go for?"*** ---- *This is a very important and crucial contest because people buy things that are either brand new or fairly used every day. So, through this contest, we will be able to shed some light on which is most preferable.* ------- |

What do you understand by both terms (fairly used / Brand new product)

| | ------ | --------- *For a start it is very much understandable to note and stat our own knowledge and understanding about the two terms which in this exert I will be starting with the fairly used* ------- |

Fairly Used

| | ------ | --------- The term fairly used is given to any piece of item that is not open box or brand new, now the keyword here is ***"open box"***, in our side we call it second hand item, so therefore a fairly used material, equipment or items is any that is being bought from a person who have already made use of such item and this may include dress, car, phones, chairs etc. ---- ![1000065995.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmX2HWDsUQMsDRBeGPQfgLAG16jcQRQAMV85qyV8mvzVZ1/1000065995.jpg) ^{Picture source}

Brand New

| | ------ | --------- On the other hand a brand new product is the one we call tear rubber, it is a piece of product that is being purchased and open for the first time after production, a brand new product is a product that has never been used before which is to say that the buyer is the first owner of such a product. ------- |

Have you ever found yourself struggling to make this decision, If so, What did you go for?

| | ------ | --------- ![1000062441.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmNypNuSEsdAq2jEwfccsLUuUfmMULfWa8DGVxwyKbPWW6/1000062441.jpg) ---- *Well, everyone hopes for the best, and I, on the other hand, strive to get the best for myself. But trust me, I have found myself struggling to make this decision one too many times. It happened when I wanted to buy a new phone. I first checked the price of a brand-new (open box) phone, and it was way above my budget. So I had to buy a used one because it was more affordable.* ---- | ![1000001682.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmSmzvdgpn6T2WTNofM2xu9FwVY4PfpVCdb3xyVUKENBF2/1000001682.jpg) | ![1000001683.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmaARrUsEXFRYfqAMKzVXTwxuYhCTMNimamir4BoT1GHHe/1000001683.jpg) | | ------ | ------ | ----- *Another instance occurred when I wanted to buy a motorcycle. I went to the shop to ask for the price of a brand-new one, and it was way above my budget, so I had to buy a used one.* ---- *Generally, buying a brand-new product is preferable, but it is always very expensive. So, when buying anything, my advice is: if you have enough cash, go for the best—a brand-new product.* ------- |

Why did you go for a fairly used or brand new item after careful considerations

| | ------ | --------- *The reason why I got myself a fairly used product as I made mentioned earlier was because of the cost of buying a brand new product, yes example with a mobile phone if a brand new phone is 500 steem you can still get that same product in a fairly used price of about 300 steem and it will still serve the same purpose.* ----- *Though it comes along with some certain degree of disadvantages most especially when you buy it from a careless owner* ------- |

Was there any regret for the choice you made?

| | ------ | --------- *From my own end trust me there was no such thing as regret not even one because as a person who takes time to access anything I wish to buy so that I won't have any regret at the end like I normally see some people that will be complaining and cursing the first owner of the product they purchased* ----- ^{***This will be the end of my entry and I will like to invite*** @joymm @m-princess & @okere-blessing} -----
