If your Kindle breaks during the one year regualr warranty, you will get a refurbished unit.One that was sent back to Amazon for some reason, it could be that the individual received it as a gift and didn't want it and returned it, and has been thouroughly examined and determined to be as functional as a new unit.
There are used Kindles sold on e-bay and through Criags List. Those do not receive Amazon's stamp of approval and have not been vetted by Amazon.
Most people who receive refurbished Kindle's are very happy with them. A large number seem not to even know that it is a refurbished unit. ie You would be very happy with your refurbished Kindle.
