Did you know that in 2024 alone, retailers in the US saw over $800 billion worth of merchandise returned? That staggering number from the National Retail Federation (NRF) underscores a massive flow of goods, and at Matter, we believe it highlights a critical opportunity. Forget what you think you know about "used" goods. A quiet revolution is happening in the world of smart shopping, and savvy consumers are leading the charge. They're discovering a secret that balances quality, value, and a commitment to our planet: refurbished products from Matter. We're not just any refurbisher – we work directly with the Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) to bring you meticulously restored goods that meet the highest standards, often exceeding expectations. Because at Matter, it matters how products are made, how they're used, and what happens to them next.
For too long, "new" has been the gold standard. But the reality is, within that $800 billion of returned goods lies a vast amount of perfectly functional products sent back for minor reasons – a change of mind, a slightly damaged box, or perhaps they were simply the wrong size. These items have so much life left to give, and throwing them away just doesn't make sense – for your wallet or the environment.
The reasons behind this growing trend of choosing refurbished are clear:
- Unlock Incredible Value: Smart shoppers know a good deal when they see one. Refurbished products from Matter offer the same high quality you expect, often at a significantly reduced price. Why pay more for "new" when you can get exceptional performance for less? To your wallet, it matters.
- Champion Sustainability: Today's consumers are increasingly conscious of their environmental impact. Choosing refurbished is a powerful way to participate in a circular economy, reduce e-waste, and conserve precious resources. You're making a tangible difference with your purchase, and to our planet, it matters.
- OEM-Level Quality You Can Trust: This is where Matter stands apart. We work directly with the OEMs of the products we refurbish. This means we adhere to their exact procedures, instructions, and rigorous testing protocols. Our goal is to bring these products back to their original, like-new condition – or even better. To us, quality it matters.
- Certified Excellence: Our commitment to quality and ethical practices is paramount. Our refurbishment factory is certified by the brands themselves to refurbish their products. Furthermore, we hold important social compliance certifications, ensuring fair labor practices, as well as sustainability certifications, reflecting our dedication to environmental responsibility. Our robust quality systems are in place to guarantee you receive a product you can rely on from Matter
- Access to Coveted Products: Sometimes, our most popular items can be temporarily out of stock in their "new" condition. Our refurbished selection at Matter, held to the same high standards, can provide you with immediate access to the products you've been wanting
