refurbisher
Makes things new
A refurbisher restores used or damaged goods to working condition for resale.
The term appears most often with electronics—phones, computers, appliances: Buy from a certified refurbisher to get warranty coverage.
Refurbishers occupy a middle ground between manufacturers and secondhand sellers, offering products cheaper than new but more reliable than as-is used items.
