Why so many used and refurbished ipads for sale? Warranty? Why are there so many used and refubished ipads for sale?

I would guess (not fact) there are so many refurbished ones is because, the glass breaks so easy. I know of two people having had their iPads slide out of their hands, within 24 hours of receiving them, and having the glass break. If they have bought insurance, like at Best Buy, they will just replace the iPad with a new one before fixing it for that customer. Apple should put a HUGE warning: iPad is light and slippery hold tight.

I thought it was supposed to be new, but I got a used one, and as far as I can tell, no warranty. The seller apologized for sending a used one and offered to resend a new one very promptly. So you should be getting a new one regardless!

If you click the link immediately under the details that says "X new from..." or "X used from..." you can see a list of those sellers offering the product and in what condition. There is usually even a small description of what you'll be getting if it's a used product. The currently offered used one does have a pretty detailed description. Refurb (used) items will usually include everything unless otherwise stated, but it's a good idea to check the seller info to get an idea what is included in the box you will receive. Sometimes, annoyingly, the only time you can contact a seller is after you've ordered.

The one I purchased was new. It will usually indicate Refurbished in the title or description if it is being resold.

Why complain? Just sell it or return. Most people got money refunded & I even got a $50 code to buy apps from HP. Along with my $486 refund I practically got my 32gb Touchpad free & I think its the best purchase I ever made! Its actually a really great tablet & I hope HP does make the 7" touchpads & keep WebOS alive.They wont have to worry about customers like you complaining since you wont buy from them anymore.Buying new products is always a risk. .....and HP did great with the refunds & free apps gifts. You should just stick to your 3rd Gen iPads. Nice & Safe :-) Why complain? Just sell it or return. Most people got money refunded & I even got a $50 code to buy apps from HP.

I sell those used or refurbished , Please read the comment on the item before you buy.

Because the person selling the used ones wants to make as much money as possible and is hoping consumers don't notice the fact the new ones are less expensive. Some consumers just assume used must be cheaper, and some of the people selling used items count on that.

Ernest, I don't know the answer, but I googled your question and found this link for which iPad should I buy. hope it helps. :)http://www.cnet.com/news/which-ipad-should-you-buy/

I believe it is the Ipad Air, not Air 2. I think Apple is the only place to buy the Air 2 - unless they have released some to bestbuy. I have been disappointed with the Ipads I have purchased off of amazon. One was so slow that is was useless. the second one I bought turned out to be "apple recertified" but sold as new. Hope this helps.

I have had good experiences with refurbished devices. You should be aware that it may have slight rubs or marks on it. It has been used. So it may be better for your own personal use as opposed to a gift. However, I have bought refurbished that looked brand new and would challenge anyone to be able to tell it used refurbished.

Hello Susana, Thanks for your interest! We are only reselling this used item, so we are not 100% sure about the answer to this question. However, Apple should know, so we recommend you contact them directly about this. Have a great day!

I'm sorry I can't answer since it is a gift to my grandson being sent to them and I won't see it used. But they have had several since most of the children have iPads.

I have had very good luck with refurbished PCs. They are checked out and cleaned and have a fresh copy of Windows. With used, you never know quite what you are getting.I've been amazed at the quality of the refurbished equipment I've been able to find on Amazon at ridiculously low prices Make sure you thorougly research which model you buy, though.

Because amazon sellers may have older inventory. I purchased used inventory and resell it.

There is a big difference from used and reburbised, Reburbished is the best. Refurbished means someone has taken the time to check all of the computer hardware out and replace or upgrade anything needed and it normal comes with some type of warranty, used means here it is and hope it keeps working with no warranty, and normally nothing has been checked by a comptuer tech.

When I bought it, I didn't buy it brand new (used option--second hand) but it was in great condition, seemed like it was used very little if much at all. I assume if you don't opt to buy it from a 3rd party/used seller, then you are buying it new.
