Target trialing online sales of pre-owned electronics

By Darren Murph | November 21, 2007

Although you may be accustomed to picking up your used wares from locales such as GameStop, Target is hoping that the scavengers of all things pre-owned will stop by its online electronics site, too. The retailer is currently testing online sales of used gizmos, including iPods, camcorders and HDTVs. Reportedly, the company made the call to start selling these goods after noticing that many returned items came back in “perfect working order,” but it has yet to decide whether it will continue the business. We also heard that refurbished consoles would be up for grabs, but after running a quick search, we came up empty handed. Still, we’d be awfully careful before we ordered, say, a pre-owned iPod, from Target — you really never know what you’re gonna get.
