"Please re-check it" or "Please check it again."

Is the above sentence correct. I don't think so.

Many thanks.

Both sentences are ok. What do you think is wrong?

My apologies.

The other sentence should have been "Please re-check it again."

I don't think the sentence is correct.

Many thanks.

Didn't you already ask that? You're right. "Please re-check it again," is wrong. The "re" eliminates the need for the "again."

"Please double-check" would be a more common usage.

It's been checked.

It's been re-checked.

It needs to be re-checked again.

It's fine, as Drewdad said, in the right context.
