Avoid Tariff Costs with Seller-Refurbished Network Equipment
Network equipment plays a crucial role in the backbone of modern businesses. However, purchasing new equipment directly from international manufacturers often incurs significant tariff costs, impacting the total cost of ownership. Fortunately, a solution that can eliminate these expenses while maintaining the quality and reliability you need is seller-refurbished network equipment.

No tariffs or delays
The equipment is already in the U.S. and has cleared customs, so there are no additional tariffs or import duties added to the price. When you purchase new network equipment directly from manufacturers overseas, like Cisco, Juniper, or Meraki, you often incur substantial import duties or tariffs. This additional cost can prohibitively increase the price of new equipment. However, seller-refurbished equipment is typically already in the USA, meaning it has already cleared customs, and no additional tariffs are added to the price.
NetworkTigers offers refurbished network equipment that is sourced, tested, and ready to deploy. Focusing on local inventory avoids the hassle and additional costs of international shipping and customs, making our seller-refurbished equipment an affordable and efficient option for businesses looking to save on hardware costs.
Ready to ship fast
Refurbished equipment is typically in stock and available for immediate shipment, avoiding delays from overseas manufacturing or customs. One significant advantage of refurbished equipment is that it is often available immediately for shipping, avoiding the typical delays of ordering brand-new items from manufacturers. Shipping delays can occur due to global supply chain issues or customs procedures, especially if the product comes from overseas.
Reliable sellers like NetworkTigers sell comprehensively tested refurbished equipment. It is shipped the same day or next business day in Grade A condition. For example, our refurbished Cisco switches or Juniper routers are inspected, certified, and prepared for immediate use by end users. So, you're avoiding tariffs and eliminating the uncertainty that usually comes with global shipping times.
Like new, lower price
Seller-refurbished equipment offers performance comparable to new products, but without the high price tag of brand-new gear. Seller-refurbished network equipment is often indistinguishable from new hardware in terms of reliability. We purchase equipment from corporations that never used it or no longer need it, test and inspect it, and add any missing parts.
For instance, refurbished and unclaimed Meraki switches, access points, firewalls or APC power distribution units (PDUs) offer full functionality like new models, typically backed by warranties ranging from one year to lifetime coverage.
OEM-level support
Even when purchasing refurbished gear, businesses can still access OEM-level support, including technical guidance and firmware updates. NetworkTigers partners with major OEMs like Cisco, Juniper, and HPE to ensure our refurbished equipment is backed by industry-grade resources.
Most manufacturers provide support for refurbished gear, so you can manage your network without sacrificing service or technical capabilities.
Environmental benefits
Using refurbished equipment helps reduce e-waste and environmental impact by extending the life cycle of high-quality network hardware. Producing new equipment requires significant resources and contributes to emissions. Choosing refurbished devices helps companies meet sustainability goals and improve corporate social responsibility (CSR).
Quality you can trust
Every refurbished item from trusted resellers undergoes rigorous quality control to ensure functionality, durability, and reliability. When you buy from a trusted reseller like NetworkTigers, the equipment is carefully inspected and restored to high standards.
For example, SonicWall firewalls are tested for functionality and license transferrability, while HPE Aruba switches undergo performance stress tests—ensuring you're buying gear that's ready to perform.
Smart savings, real results
Purchasing seller-refurbished network equipment from suppliers like NetworkTigers effectively avoids the costs associated with tariffs and international shipping. You'll receive tested, Grade A equipment without delay—delivering performance on par with new products at a fraction of the price.
By choosing refurbished network equipment, you're not just saving on cost—you're making a smart, sustainable decision aligned with your business and environmental goals.
