Refurbished Pens?

[Solarix]

I'm not sure about the rest of you guys, but I love www.newegg.com. I use it for all the parts I get to build systems with. But I came across something interesting today.

A Refurbished NewEgg Pen

What the hell? How do you "refurb" a pen? Anyways, thought u guys might find that kinda interesting/funny.

My wife bought a pen of the Franklin Covey site 3 years ago when she first got her palm. It crapped out on her 3 months ago. (Twist pen/stylis. The "twist" stopped working.) OK, hit up www.franklincovey.com but they don't carry it any more. She looked for 3 weeks straight before she finally found her pen again. Referbished on some web site. Not only did she get her pen. She got 3. They were about 1/3 the price she origionally paid. (3 for the price of 1) AND... she sent them her old pen and they took a few bux off the order.
