It seemed fairly obvious the OP knows those are older iPads and was trying to say they were the best bargains. Sometimes an older item can be a great bargain. For those who cannot, or don't want to, spend the ridiculous amounts of cash for the latest iPads, some of the older models can indeed be bargains. I'm not sure if I would rank them the same as the OP, but I recently sold my iPad mini 2 and was very happy with it as long as the apps I ran didn't require a more current amount of computing power. I still love my iPad Pro 9.7" and quite frankly cannot justify trading up to a newer model yet. Eventually it too will lack enough computing power to get my tasks performed, but not yet. I would love an iPad mini 5, but I just don't have the extra funds yet, nor really need it, and I'm not willing to trade my iPad Pro 9.7" for one. If given the choice between the newest iPad Air for $500 or an iPad Pro 9.7" for perhaps $300 or less used, I would recommend the iPad Pro 9.7". If money is no object, then buy the latest greatest if that's what you want, but a lot of people will not have that option.
