I got a refurbished Droid the other day and i have noticed quite a few poor construction issues. I have never ONCE had a good refurb of any cell phone. Back when i had an EnV i went through four, three of which were refurbs. When i had a voyager i had one refurb from asurion cause my original broke, and what is up with that? getting a refurbished when you pay them absurd amounts of money. But they did send me a new one when my refurb died after a few days. And last week my Original Droid which i've had since december, its screen died so i went to the store and they had none so they had to ship me a refurb. it arrives and the first thing i noticed was the slide is so loose i feel like the screen will fly off if i open the slider too much. The power button is also very stiff and its hard to tell if ive actually pressed it. The screen also looks like its cracked on the left side and top left corner because the screen doesn't look flush with the glass and there is a lot of backlight leakage there. There is also a blue line around where that crack is. Plus the screen wiggles in any direction because the slider sucks so badly. And there is a nice size gap between the screen and keyboard which causes a tapping sound if i touch the screen too hard. So my question is why are refurbished phones always such utter trash?
