Anybody know the difference between the words:

b) Reconditioned
c) Remanufactured
d) Rebuild


They only mean what the seller wants them to mean, I'd say. Never seen any

b) The major wearing parts - like pistons - replaced.
c) All wearing parts replaced.
d) Fully remanufactured to the standards of a new makers unit or better.
