Recertified PlanOn DocuPens Feature Dramatically Reduced Pricing for Bargain-Hunting Holiday Shoppers

TORONTO, Oct. 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Reflecting a global trend in which smart shoppers are increasingly gravitating toward quality recertified products to save money during the tough economy, PlanOn announced today the dramatic price reduction of its recertified portable scanner DocuPen. The recertified DocuPen, a lightweight, battery operated high speed portable scanner, has been reduced from $129.99 to $79.99, making it a great gift idea for the money conscious shopper this holiday season. The special pricing on this factory recertified full-color scanner goes into effect on Oct. 12th, 2010 and will continue while supplies last.

The DocuPen is exactly what it sounds like—a pen-sized scanner that fits easily into a pocket, purse or briefcase, making it easy to scan a full page in color in just 4-8 seconds. This special price is 75% off the full price of the item, and is the best price PlanOn has ever offered on the DocuPen. All recertified DocuPens are 100% guaranteed, and their performance and appearance is no different from the brand new products.

"Many of our recertified DocuPens were simply returned from the seller and have never been opened—making them virtually brand new," said Andy Narsingh, marketing manager for PlanOn. "In many cases, the packaging was damaged and the untouched product is placed into a new box. Everyone is looking to save money wherever they can, especially during the holiday gift shopping season. High-quality recertified products make the perfect gift idea for the bargain-hunting shopper."

Narsingh continued, "This is the first time the DocuPen, one of PlanOn's best selling products, has been offered at this low price. The DocuPen fits perfectly into the pocket of the on-the-go business professional, making it easier to conduct business anywhere."
