Apple now sells many different iPad models to choose from. But sometimes 'new' is more than you need—and more than you want to spend.
If you'd like to save a little money and still pick up an iPad for yourself or a loved one—as a gift for a parent getting their first tablet or for a child new to the ways of iOS, say—then the refurbished market is a great option. Yes, I mean a used iPad. (Although technically it's restored to like-new condition.) If you don't need the latest and greatest, or something untouched since it came off the assembly line, refurbished is a good choice.
A new iPad too rich for you blood? Apple fixes and sells older models too.
And while there are many, many companies that buy, repair, and sell used iPads at significant discounts, I'm here to tell you why you should overlook them—even if they save you some money in the short term—and instead buy from Apple.
