I think I've bought about 16 eReaders from pawnshops and Craig's List and I've only had the one blacklisted one. At that time I got three 3G Keyboards for $10 each, so -- even giving one to my brother and giving the blacklisted one to my father -- I came out ahead by selling one on eBay. From the same pawnshop I bought three Kindles (my Kindle Touch) and two Silver KBNTs, for $5 each. The Touch has a small mark right in the middle of the screen and a scratched up bezel, but it's become my main reading machine. One of the KBNTs went to my son -- and, since no one else in my family was interested in the other one -- I sold it on eBay. I bought three more Kindle Touches from CraigsList. Two went to my brother's family (his kids are readers), and one was sold on eBay. I bought it because it came with a lighted case -- so I ended up keeping the case (actually replacing it with a non-lit one) and coming out close to even by selling the Touch. The only Kindles I've actually bought from Amazon, are the Fire HD 6 -- and a black KBNT that I decided I really didn't need and sold it on eBay (a few months before they quit selling them). So that particular move didn't work out too well (I figured I could buy another one any time).
I'm rambling. Sorry.
