Refurbished Kindle: Where To Get Yours?
0
There was a time that a lot of us were openly questioning what Amazon was doing with refurbished and re-certified Kindles. It took Amazon a while to come around and finally release refurbished Kindle 1.0 to the market. At first, they were presented as cheap alternatives to those more expensive Kindle 2.0 and Kindle DX units. Refurbished Kindles are finally catching on however. You can get them on eBay and Amazon. Buying on eBay is a bit tricky as you never know who you are dealing with. The fraud rate seems to be a bit lower on Amazon, but you can never be too careful.
What Amazon does have is warehouse deals. The items listed under this brand are open box and refurbished units for the most part, and they cost you a lot less than you have to pay for new units. Here are Amazon Kindle prices:
If you are lucky, you may be able to find a slightly used or refurbished Kindle unit on eBay and other auction sites. But don’t expect to pay too lower than the above prices for your refurbished e-reader.
Your take: would you consider purchasing a refurbished/re-certified Kindle?
