I do pay with a credit card, and I don't have PayPal. What is funny is that I do not know what blacklisted really means.

The Kindle has been reported to Amazon as lost or stolen and you will not be able to register it.

Thankfully that has neither occurred to me nor happened to me. Thanks for the post.

Or replaced.

Some ebay sellers offer ones advertised as blacklisted cheaper. They still sort of work sideloading without DRM, but no directly bought ebooks (DRM means won't work), no Collections etc. There may be some sort of non-stolen blacklisted ones?

It’s possible, although probably not in the amounts you see blacklisted kindles.

There was a rather unfortunate discussion here once, where someone asked about buying a blacklisted Kindle. There was full disclosure from the seller; he’d wanted to return it but Amazon said not to bother, but blacklisted it.
