Does "(Blem)" in the product description indicate that this is a factory second, or blemished, item?

The word "Blem" indicates there may be a minor blemish with the product. Typical instances of sets flagged as "blems" include a small ding or tear in the carton, smudged logo imprint on the pruning blades, or minor imperfection with the finish of the pole metal. In most cases the blem is so minor that the majority of customers do not notice any imperfections. All "Big-Reach" sets sold as blems contain all new poles and components. Blem sets are also guaranteed to perform exactly the same as the higher-priced non-blem pole sets. Most cartons get a little dinged up in shipping anyway so, this is a good way to save over $20.00 off the price of a non-blem set.

In my case, only the packaging was damaged. There was a small tear in the box that was taped up. The vendor warned me before he shipped it. Great product by the way.

should be against manufacturer defects and shipping damage. check with place of puchase.

I am pretty sure it was new. It looked new and worked very well. The question of new or used never entered my mind. I assumed it was new.

The photo may be wrong. You should check with the seller just to make sure though. Great product, btw.

Mine had factory stickers on the box. And, there was nothing about it being refurbished. To me it was new.

No, it's just showing you the platter type and what it looks like inside. It's a perfectly fine working piece of equipment. It's not used, it's not refurbed or anything. This type of packaging just means that it was normally used in like OEM equipment, but they didn't need to use it, or that it was just overstock stuff. It's a brand new hard drive.

No clue. Pictures online look identical. Suspect just a minor manufacturing change, but only guessing.

I ordered from an ambiguous listing that appeared just like this...said HID 1346, but illustrated the picture here...I received generic knock-offs that look like the picture and I returned them.

It looks like the lower priced one might be used. Not absolutely but I think that's what is indicated when you read the detail. Read the descriptions on both of them but I believe the $300 lists it as NEW and the lower-priced one does not list "NEW"

it means it is probably a return item or someone didn't want it. They (manufacture or vendor) test the unit and make sure it is in working factory condition. Then they give you 90 days warranty on the product. All the accessories are there. You just don't get the original parts or maybe a missing manual. Check the details. I bought a few of these. They work just like the new ones I bought.

there are many brand who use the same factory, if the picture is same, we believe it is coming from same factory but different brand

I don't know if you guys realize the package of which the new one's light pattern is covered by a piece of paper compared to the old one's light pattern showing clearly. Do you guys think it means something? although it is absolutely genuine and it is not that bad, I feel not so good for this unannounced change. Actually, the old light pattern 500G does exist, but its box is using entirely plastic packing just like the special edition version. Both of them are sold in my local bestbuy store, so I can compare them head to head. In addition, the new one's bottom and sides are plastic, but for the old version only the sides are plastic. It looks like I did too much researches, but just for fun.

It means that the item has been checked and / or repaired to original specs by either the manufacturer or an approved repair facility. My unit looked new and worked great ... and still does.

It appears to be a Cree, but mine wasn't properly sealed. The LEDStore is exchanging it without hassle, and I'll be changing my feedback as soon as the exchange it's complete.
