I would say not. Although I don't really know, as I bought this camera new, not as a refurbished item. Anything I have needed to be replaced, electronically-wise, has always come in it's own box and usually it was like a brand new item. I'm not familiar with purchasing "refurbished" items. I'm sorry I can't answer your question any better than that.

My camera came in its original packaging. After reading the responses from others, I'm inclined to believe that some sellers buy close out products that are in their original packaging and sell them at a reduced price. Other sellers appear to buy refurbished products that are not in the original boxes. The company I purchased my camera from no longer carries it. I think we will all have to pay closer attention to product information when we make a purchase. I would have been upset, too, if what I received was not what I expected.

actually the box was open, everything was there, but the labels on the camera was missed. i thought that they sold me the refurbished one. i wrote them a complain, but they said that they got that camera from sony store and it was like that. so i couldn't find any defects in that camera and i decided to keep it. other stuff in the set was brand new.

You may have received a refurbished ...ours came in the factory box ...Amazon is very good about returns & correcting the orders.

Mine was new, although I think that you have the option to get one refurbished for a few bucks less. Great computer, only reason I didn't keep it was because it didn't have a backlit keyboard.

The one I got my wife was new. If it's refurbished item I think the description should say that.For what it's worth the camera we got is great.

They are 100% new if you pick the new one and not refurbished, they have both just pay attention to what you choose. It states new or refurbished if you look. Sony says 1 year warranty, have not used it so I cant tell you and I am nearly at the 1 year point now.

Mine looks like new. I had forgoten that I had bought a refurbished one until Amazon asked me to answer this question.

I don't understand why you ask this question, but here's the answer. If you buy from Amazon ("ships and sold by Amazon") it will be a new, factory sealed box. If you buy from other vendors (for example, Beach Photo), you should check with them before ordering. In my experience, most vendors will state that their product is "refurbished" if it is not a new, sealed product. In any case, you can return the product within 30 days from most vendors (check to be sure that's the return policy if you're not buying from Amazon). I hope this answer helps.

Mine was "brand new in box" when received, instructions and all! Picture perfect and not refurbished or demo stock. Hope this helps...

Yes it does, it says refurbished on it but that's it. I bought it for my boyfriend on Christmas and he loves it

Why didn't you take it back to the store and get a refund? Refurbished units just seem dirty to me.Yeah, if something does do what that something is built for right out of the box, it's more than likely broken.

refurburished is the same as new. I covered my grandsons tablet with them and it was refurbished.

I have had good experiences with refurbished devices. You should be aware that it may have slight rubs or marks on it. It has been used. So it may be better for your own personal use as opposed to a gift. However, I have bought refurbished that looked brand new and would challenge anyone to be able to tell it used refurbished.

The one I bought was sold as refurbished, but I don't know if that is true of all of them. It was in like new condition.

Yes, it comes with everything the new one includes, even the warranty. I've bought 3 refurbished units in the last 2 years and you can't tell it's a refurbished unit at all
