You can go for the low ball $25 price and hope you can get it replaced for free (if they sell it for that price). If you can buy the broken one at $25 and spend $180 to repair it, you're only saving $14 over a refurbished unit. I'm not sure but I think you would get a new 1 year warranty with the refurbished unit as opposed to a soon to expire one with the broken Kindle even after it is repaired.
Sorry, I'm not making this any easier.  |
No, you're making sesne. It sounds like the only real way to not get screwed is to get it for $25. If I get Amazon to repair it for free - excellent. If Amazon charges, not so great, but still not bad. And if I have to, I can always just throw it up on eBay and probably get what I paid for it.
I haven't actually gotten a price from the seller, yet, so I don't know how low he is willing to go. It does come with the case and charger, which is a nice plus.
It sounds like the issue with the Kindle might be covered by warranty, right? Although, I'm not sure the history of this Kindle, so I don't know for sure. As long as he's being honest, though, and it has been purchased within one year, the warranty will still transfer, right?
