Cowboom.com - used for $60 but the ones I got were rated 5 condition and look flawless - haven't found any of the scratches that were listed.

I can only assume that it is due to supply and demand. The new ones are $135+

I just saw that Best Buy has it listed for the price that Amazon had it listed at not too long ago (around 2,200.00). It's not available at all their stores though..

Other sites might sell for cheaper. You just have to look a little then but even on Amazon the used ones can be more expensive than the new ones, as it depends on the seller.

Do you have a Big Lots store near you? Last week ours had a bunch of universal 7" tablet cases for $5, and one that stands up for around $8. They weren't the highest quality, but they work and they're cheap enough that you could get several to change out when you feel like it.

I missed out on it on Woot, which killed me! It's funny how this seller (Shoptronics) is currently selling it so cheap ($23.97), but charging $24.97 to ship it. Granted, it's still cheaper than it is in most places, but it's hard to accept a shipping charge so high, LOL, regardless of how cheap the item really is. If they sold it for $49 with free shipping it would appear to be a great deal. Shot logic, I know, but alot of people get miffed at a ridiculous shipping charge, regardless of how it still ends up being cheaper than everywhere else.Amazon.com is selling it for $52.97 w/free shipping, so Shoptronics is still cheaper.November 2008.

Hi Grace, don't buy this device would be my advice in the first place. It is an old model with buggy hardware. Chip up some more cash and get a tablet that will last. If you want a really good hardware + software that's designed and developed properly you can always buy the Nexus 7 version of 2013 from the goolge play store. The price is around $250, varying based on features. Let the low price of nexus 7 not fool you, it is a high grade tablet subsidised by google, that's why you get it cheaply. Hope this helped.

I just looked this tablet up yesterday 12/30/14 and the price was $249.00 new. I put it in my cart to purchase today 12/31/14 and now its $269.00!. In the meantime I was doing some research and found the same tablet at several locations locally for $249.00 My question is why the increase and second looks like I'm going to purchase locally! What a bummer for Amazon.

Amazon doesn't price match. Put it in your cart and check it daily. the price will go down to $55 or so.

Probably because they purchased it for under $100. If you notice amazon prices fluctuate daily. For example today (01/06/2014) the price is 97.82+ shipping.

wtf is right. why is this going for almost 3x it's regular price? surely there is a new and improved version out there (which normally makes the price of the older model go DOWN). does anyone know?

Yes indeed... you were either ripped off or you didn't wait for a better price. While mine is used, I purchased it for $60-70 last year. Hope this helps... and get your money back if you can!

Sorry for complexity of answer, a bit more involved than apples and oranges. We have original kindle fire rooted with latest android software and it rocks dollar for dollar. But we also ordered a recond Ipad 3, bought a 5th gen ipod and iphone at exorbitant prices. Kindle can do it all, problem lies with others perceptions. Family in law are "only" getting latest I whatever, and then expect everyone to use "face time" instead of goggles hangouts which are inconvenient. Apple has some cool stuff but not worth the cost in my opinion unless it is a prerequisite to family cohesiveness.

the 1550 is not from Amazon itself, but another vendor.I got mine for 1650, and would only buy from amazon for something of this value, as I pretty much trust them for business these last 7 years without one single problem, but no xyz vendor! $1650 is still a great deal, because Best Buy is about 1899 and so was Frys, 1899. And no tax! Great deal, don't look back! Enjoy!

Um, there is. Amazon is listing it for $4.50, fifty cents cheaper than on the alternate sites you mentioned. If there was once an incorrect price, it's been fixed.

I purchased this for $5.59 in the past. Must be an error or typo, as there are sellers with it for less than $7 here on Amazon... which is STILL steep.
