So you want to buy Home Audio Cd Players

Hopefully this article will save you time, money and aggravation when looking foe a home audio cd players. Most players won't last for ever, but that's OK because there always new features coming out.
This is how I put collectively put my Home Theatre and Audio Sound System and you might want to use this as a general guide in terms of what I learned through trial and error.
Buying Used or Refurbished Items
I have a few rules I recommend you abide when you look for cd players:
1.Make sure it comes with the original manual and remote control, which will make reselling it, should you chose to do so, easier.
2. Make sure it is described as in very good or better condition from a seller in the US (or the country you reside in).
3. Pass on any item which the seller has described previous problems with.,
4.Be careful not to buy anything that says you can't return it or you may get stuck with it.
5. Only buy from someone with a lot of feedback whose positive percentage is 80% or better. As a rule I won't buy from anyone with feedback of 10 or less, if you're putting up $150 or more, I'd increase that to 20 feed backs. Even if you do pass up some legitimate people in the process with that rule, the chances are good that the item will show up again within the next 2 months or so from a seller with feedback of 20 or better. What I'm saying is, don't rush things when you don't have to. It's a good idea pay by paypal only. This way if there is a problem, paypal will help resolve it and/or get your money back.
Don't buy these refurbished items:
Be cautious buy a used or refurbished home audio cd players under any circumstances. You may be asking for trouble if you do.
Do not buy a used or refurbished DVD player, Universal player or DVD recorder under Any circumstances. These are made with a limited life in mind.
Making the correct decision about what to buy
If you've heard or seen any system personally that you liked, I would go by that first to decide what to buy. What I wouldn't do is go to a store & make your decision based on what you hear or see there. In many cases for instance, the HDTV's are not actually showing HD shows in the store because they're not receiving HD signals or the sound system is giving lousy sound because of bad acoustics, bad ambience and improperly set controls which the salesman is pretending to not notice. Should you ignore all that, let the buyer beware, at least bring a CD and/or DVD of your choice to sample their system, not the stores generic ones.
I would go to Forum sites and see which components or system, are constantly being praised and then read Online Reviews and information from the Manufacturer and base your decision on that. Likewise use the forums to ask about a specific product.
