Is a refurbished mouse worth the risk to buy?

I don't know. I bought mine new, and it has given my absolutely no problems in the five years I have owned it

no. and i really don't recommend getting this mouse unless you aren't afraid of it breaking in only a few months.

perfect timing, answer is 'not for long'. scroll has failed already. right click is malfunctioning. nice mouse while it lasted. will not buy another.

I take a different point of view than most of the other responders. I would NEVER buy a refurb as my primary computer, but if you're looking at a system for gaming or music, then a refurb is fine. I do agree, though, to stick with a manufacturer-refurbed unit.

I have been using it almost every day for over two months and never had that problem. My buddy also got one and he hasn't had any problems with his either. I was leary about buying a refurbished unit too but now I am definitely glad I did.

I have had no problems with this mouse, I suggest returning it as it should not do that

I purchased a motorola bluetooth headset "bulk packaging" from a well known internet dealer and the item came to me all scratched and looked like it was a refurbished item. Seller did not say item was new or a refurb on the ad. I ended up returning item. I also purchased a Logitech mouse from the same seller again "bulk packaging" and the mouse started acting up on me after only 4 months. I waiting now for a response from Logitech.

When i bought at the time, it was brand New. Refurbished means reconditioned. They get a used/malfunction product and give it a real treat. They should work ok and are less expansível.

It very well could be the mouse but before you get a new one change the mouse pad that the mouse sits on. Sometimes they become rough and worn although you can't see it. That would slow it down. I have had other instances where my computer was not working properly at all and as soon as I changed the mouse, PRESTO! everything worked fine. Sometimes they just go haywire or get corrupted in some way. A simple little think that can cause some major distress.

The mouse has worked fine for me, I've had it for over 6 months now, no problems. But here's a link to download drivers for the mouse, might help. http://www.logitech.com/en-us/support/corded-mouse-m500?osid=23&bit;=64

The one I bought was new but many refurbished items have factory warranties. Check Carefully before you buy.

yes, but for defects that came from manufacturing process (a year) only. That means that for example, if the switches are not working at month 6, you might have a replacement of the mouse.

If you go to http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-D66-00029-Wheel-Mouse-Optical/dp/B00006B7HB?ref_=pe_527950_34207370 , there are 12 used ones starting at $4.91 and one refurbished at $19.95 .

it worked as a new one. no problem at all. you have to press to some button combinations to match the mouse and receiver but after that you can use it without any problem.

I do not know the specific answer to your question. However, I do know this. In the last 20 years my small business has purchased about 50 computer mice. Only one became too hard to use. That was the first one, and it was 6 or 7 years old by the time we ditched it. Today's mice are made so much better, so really, you probably shouldn't buy this type of coverage. In fact, Consumer Reports and similar publications say that protection plans for consumer electronics are usually not worth it.

I went to the Zowie site, and purchased from a listed where to buy Zowie. As far as I understand, as long as you can show when you purchased the item new, you enjoy the warranty. I really love the mouse.

Yes. The only difference between a refurbished and a non-refurbished is that the former had a problem which was fixed. Everything else is the same.
