Lol, I think they resell them on Woot.

Oh! That's new; I've checked several times, the last being just a few weeks ago when I picked up a Dot3 with a special offer that was too good to miss. Thanks!

I know you think you know everything and that the rest of us are not too bright, neither of which is correct, but there is a big industry recycling parts from old electronics. From a business perspective it would make sense, if for no other reason than the metals. Amazon seems more likely to adopt this eco-friendly approach than many companies. I’m sure some, perhaps many, of the devices are resold as is, but many items do get refurbished, and some likely do get disassembled for parts whether you can fathom that or not.

You've got nothing to apologize for; you were obviously joking and that response was uncalled for even if you weren't.

I saw a code on Facebook to get the Fire Tv 4k Stick for 24.99 (the BF price) so I put in my trade in and the code, and they gave me 20% off the list price, plus .99 for my trade in, resulting in the new device costing about $15.

I initiated the trade in for the tablet, so it will be (is) in place for the price drop on the tablets on Nov 22.

    We just posted the 2-page Microsoft Black Friday Sneak Peek Ad!

    Microsoft is running a Black Friday "sneak peak" at their deals right now. As stated on their website, most deals will start November 28th at 12AM ET. You can sign up for their email alerts to make sure you get first access and a gentle reminder when it is time to go shop.

    While some things are technically still on sale right now, it's not anything we would recommend hopping on immediately. According to our ad leak timeline, the official Black Friday ad dropped on November 11th last year. Hold off for the full list and get those credit cards ready!

I know it's been a while since I shopped for a new PC or laptop. This has been driven home to me by the total lack of DVD/BluRay drives

Despite telling myself I only need something to use to access the internet I keep finding other options I want and straying out of the budget I set.

Decisions, decisions...

I've been checking Dell and HP every day for the desktop I want, and yesterday Dell dropped $80 - you might want to take a look there. They gouge you on SSD and video cards but basic systems aren't too bad.

Today's Best Buy daily doorbuster is another Win10 Lenovo Ideapad. For $130 you get a 14" screen (same resolution), a slightly more powerful AMD A6 (I assume it might have better video than the Celeron but not sure), and most importantly 4GB vs. 2GB RAM.
