She makes a deal with the evil sea witch, Ursula, which gives her a chance to experience life on land but ultimately places her life – and her father’s crown – in jeopardy. The youngest of King Triton’s daughters and the most defiant, Ariel longs to find out more about the world beyond the sea and, while visiting the surface, falls for the dashing Prince Eric. While mermaids are forbidden to interact with humans, Ariel must follow her heart. “The Little Mermaid” is the beloved story of Ariel, a beautiful and spirited young mermaid with a thirst for adventure. Many of the items offered also have a 30-day money back guarantee. Everything available through eBay's certified refurbished program comes with a 2-year warranty. I know they cover the period of time least likely to need warranty coverage, but I also think peace-of-mind is important, too. I'm neither for nor against extended warranties. That's why retailers love to sell you an extended warranty: it's pure profit for them. That means you're actually less likely to suffer from a breakdown with a certified refurb than you are when you buy something new.Īlso, that flat part in the middle of the bathtub curve? That's when a product has the least likelihood of failure, but is also the period of time covered by extended warranties. Refurbished items already suffered their most-likely failure, and have been repaired and re-certified. It's called the bathtub curve because it's shaped like a bathtub. It starts off high, drops suddenly, flattens out for a while then ramps back up again near the end of its life. In engineering, there's something called the 'bathtub curve' that models when something is most likely to suffer a catastrophic failure. when an item is refurbished, that means it already experienced a break-down at one of the most likely failure points of its lifecycle. Why buy something that was already fixed once? Well, ACTUALLLLLLLLLLY. When recommending refurbs, I always run into hesitancy, which is understandable.
