HiddenJewel Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Would you risk buying a used Kindle or Kindle Keyboard off Craig's List? Supposedly they are 1 and 3 months old and being sold for 65% of retail. At least one case is included. Being sold because the person is too busy and doesn't use them.

celticmom Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 I purchased a Nook from an acquaintance who wanted to upgrade to the new Nook tablet. I have been very happy with my new Nook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catwoman Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 No. If it was someone I knew, I might consider it, but otherwise, I wouldn't do it. I have seen the basic Kindle sell for as little as $49 brand new on sale at places like Walmart and BestBuy, and I know Best Buy has also offered "free gift card with purchase" deals on other Kindle models as well. Amazon sells refurbished versions of their Kindles, too -- you have to keep checking and see what's available. I got my Kindle Fire for only $139. Kindles aren't so incredibly expensive that it's worth taking a chance on buying a used one from a stranger. I'd rather look for a deal on a new or Amazon refurbished model, and have the security of a return policy and a warranty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
