Affiliate Disclosure

Refurbished Scout may use affiliate links to help support its independent editorial work. This page explains what that means for readers.

How affiliate links work

Refurbished Scout may earn a commission when a reader follows an eligible affiliate link and completes a qualifying purchase. The retailer pays that commission; using an affiliate link does not increase the reader’s purchase price.

Prices, availability, shipping terms, warranties, and seller policies are controlled by the retailer or seller and may change. We do not publish those details unless they can be supported at the time of publication.

Editorial conclusions remain independent

Affiliate relationships do not determine which products receive coverage, how products are evaluated, or whether a product is recommended. A higher commission does not justify a more favorable conclusion.

Research-based analysis and physical testing are identified separately. Participation in an affiliate program is not evidence that Refurbished Scout has purchased, inspected, or tested a product.

Amazon Associates disclosure

As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases.

Clear disclosure

Affiliate links are presented with clear context near the relevant buying option and are marked as sponsored links. Refurbished Scout does not publish fabricated discounts, ratings, inventory, shipping benefits, or availability to encourage a click.

For the principles that govern our broader publishing work, read the Editorial Policy.
