I don't need old already have the Aura I need New ... Not buying old 212 ppi when I can buy 300 ppi Buying an Aura 2nd ed is Not an improvement to me.
That's why choice is good. I'm happy with my old readers — none have resolutions over 167ppx — even the Tolino Page with E-Carta screen is at 167. They work fine for me.

Sure the resolution on the Aura is a bit lower but it's far from inferior to newer 6" ereaders. 300 was in most ereaders 2 years ago. But the difference between 212 and 300 is small. Still the Aura is a very capable reader and the Aura One is better than Kindle Imo. Perhaps another Kobo will come out soon.
I'm guessing you mean something other than the Clara — a bigger one to replace the Aura One maybe. I think I read that there is another one in the works (it has been approved by "something-other" government department).

Kobo webpage? They ship for free. And if you don't trust Kobo, you shouldn't want a Kobo device.

Have it shipped to the store. Then you can inspect it before taking ownership.

I didn't see a definitive reply to this, so:

Once linked, does that mean any ebook I buy from Walmart will be in my Kobo account? And vice versa?

Yes:

I've linked my Kobo account to the Dutch affiliate, Bol.com. It works fantastically. All books I bought from either place show up in my library - as in, two libraries are merged and they are now identical. I can buy from either place and the new book is present in both places (that is actually one place that shows up in both).

Just curious, but is it likely that they still make them? I would assume there is old stock still available, but I would guess that production has stopped (making the 2013 Aura).

Order it on Walmart's website and have it shipped to the store instead of your home. It makes returns easy and they were offering a discount if you order this way.

Yes...but if you inspect it right in the store when you pick it up, you can return it immediately if you don't like it. If you're worried about getting a refurb, don't do an exchange, just do a straight return for your money back.
