Replacing outdated computer equipment can be an expensive proposition. One Chandler-based company is helping out area businesses and families by offering certified used laptops at steep discounts. Ironman Refurbished Business Computers (IRBC) is owned by Ken Chan, his sister, Linda, and her husband, Andy Ip. Their unique business model allows customers to simply call or text for information on available units and pricing. Pickup is available by appointment at the Chandler warehouse and free delivery is available at convenient locations throughout the Valley. Since they started the business two years ago they have sold business-grade Dell laptops and Lenovo ThinkPads throughout Phoenix and abroad. “I believe we have been so successful due to the reliability of our laptops and because we focus on providing prompt and courteous service to our customers,” said Ken Chan. Each laptop purchase includes a
comprehensive tutorial to explain the features of the unit, a one-month warranty, and lifetime technical support. Prices range from $199 to $599 depending on the specifications of the model and bulk sales are available. Chan also owns the FutureKiddie franchise which offers classes that teach computer skills to boys and girls ages 3 through 7 at locations throughout Phoenix. He came up with the company name, Ironman, based on the ruggedness of the business-grade models they refurbish. He adds that their laptops are even used in schools and by many mechanics for diagnostic work due to their durability in the toughest of environments. Interested parties can call or text (480) 550-9078, email info@ ironmancomputers.com or visit www. ironmancomputers.com, for available inventory and more information. Pickup is available at their Chandler warehouse by appointment and at convenient locations throughout Phoenix.
