Hi

After the OP posted last time, i checked the site most days until I got a 32gb black one. It took about 10days and it's immaculate very pleased.

You have all been really helpful thank you. I will check daily, now I just need to decide if my husband would really like one or am I secretly buying it for me and the kids!!!

Just in relation to those who are worrid about the quality;
I don't have a refurbished ipad (I wish I did!) but I do have two other refurbished apple products. A 2nd gen nano bought in 2008 and used very frequently and an ipod-touch which Apple replaced for me in April when my original became faulty.

Both are excellent condition, you'd not be able to tell by looking or even via a basic scour through that they are refurbished models. The outside looks perfect- no scratches no finger prints and nothing preloaded but the basics just as if you'd bought it brand new.

If I had the money and option again, I'd easily opt for a refurbished model. Apples customer services are Amazon standard (eg very good) and if you do have any issues they offer great help- not that I've had a problem with a refurbished model (only with the original ipod-touch bought from a separate well known store).

Thank you, I have book marked the page and will keep an eye out. Can I ask, are you pleased with it and is it in good condition?

I would probably prefer the 32gb as my husband would watch movies on it. It's just such a lot of money and I want to get it if it is right.

Thank you

Absolutely brill. You wouldn't know as it has a brand new case, screen and battery. Set up perfectly. No issues at all

I'm glad so many people have purchased this (imo) bargain, from the apple site;

The same 1yr warranty as a brand new iPad.
All Manuals and accessories
A brand new battery & outer shell
A new white box

It doesn't state a new screen but that said I ordered on Wednesday it was delivered on Thursday (free del) and it is like a brand new one,

Just to add, they do go out of stock very quickly so it's a case of checking the site & trying your luck

Looks like a good option for those wanting an ipad. Just a slight word of caution as I am sure that you are all aware. These are 1st and 2nd generation ipads and are not the latest ipad which are third generation and have the retina displays. Just in case you are buying for loved one who may be wanting the latest version.

2 Apple staff have said the refurbished iPad 3's will be on sale before too long - few months - but higher price than the 2's.
I can't fault the refurbished iPad 2 I got yesterday.

I went to an Apple store last weekend to test the 2 and the 3 out but for me the 2 was right.

Another thing I found out was if you have an NUS student card or proof you are a teacher you get discounts but not on refurbs. They offered me the 16gb iPad 3 with £16 off plus a £35 iTunes card - but I still decided the 2 was best option for me. Gather student/teacher discounts off their computers are much better.

Do not worry about quality of the refurb if you buy direct from apple refurb store. You cannot tell the difference from new. However 'refurb' from other sources you pays your money and take your chance. Got one of these from apple refurb store a couple of weeks back, happy in every respect.
