I don't trust second hand electronics due to the fact that you're often playing Russian roulette with them

And I don't like the idea of buying chairs and mattresses second hand because of bodily fluids or the chance someone died in one

Damn near every piece of tech I own is used. I've only had 1 or 2 duds. I figure that it's worth it as I'm paying less than 1/3 most of the time.

I've never in my life bought a brand new smart phone, always used off eBay, Amazon, or swappa. Just make sure the listing has a return policy and it's pretty safe in my experience.

My general rule on secondhand goods is "nothing permeable, unless it can survive going through the washer on the steam clean setting." Secondhand clothes are fine, as long as they can survive a good strong washing. Secondhand furniture is OK as long as it's not upholstered, like a table or dresser. But couches and mattresses? Forget it. My washing machine can't fit a love seat inside it.
