Answer
Refurbished means that it was
1 Returned to the factory, or an authorized repair station
2 checked for proper operations
3 repairs were done if necessary ( sometimes the unit could have been a return item with nothing wrong)
4 repackaged with all accessories that would come with a new unit.
So yes this is not a new unit, it had been taken out of the box. It may have been in someone's house, broke under warranty, fixed and being resold.
As to whether it is a good buy or not is up to you. Some people like to buy refurbished thinking that since the unit was checked out and has warranty and the price is reduced that it is. Others feel that you are just buying someone else's problem.

Answer
Stop thief... you stole it!!! Well not actually but personally I've had good luck with some of these off brand super cheap players. I still have a $29 DVD player I bought years ago. I would carry it with me on trips mostly to Asia to use in hotels. Thing got beaten pretty hard and the darn thing still works. I say if it does the job for you then why pay more? No it's not the best brand name but so what. Especially these days it pays to save money, don't pay more than you have to!
