When you RMA a part back to Cisco refurb, they send you another refurbished part back. I am myself a provider of secondary market hardware and have gone through Cisco refurb a few times for my clients. My opinion on it would be that Cisco does not put a whole lot of emphasis on this program and can sometimes have shoddy product and not great service at high prices. If you are looking to save some money, find a company that specializes in off lease asset redistribution (of course I prefer to say use mine, but there are several good companies out there, most better than Cisco' program). A good provider like this should be cheaper and give you a better warranty. Please let me know if you all have any other questions you would like answered,

Even when you do RMA , you get refurbished parts. How do you make sure that the part is a new one or refurbished. Biddu.
