Abstract
Despite the enormous economic importance of consumer durable repeat purchases they have been largely neglected in the diffusion of innovations research. Only a handful of studies have examined the drivers of replacement timing of durables. We extend this research in two important ways. Based on a large survey of 8,077 households, we demonstrate that consumer innovativeness, the most prominent driver of adoption, also influences repeat purchase timing. Further, we investigate for the first time the drivers of additional unit purchase timing.

Citation countsare sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
