i'm looking for a new tablet and found a refub of NC for 120$ is a refub a good idea?
with all the shipping cost it will go up to 169$, there are also other no name tablets (some of them are good) for this price (with the shipping...)
need some advice
Yes, great deal. I have bought one new nook and one refurb and you could not tell the difference. Do NOT go with a no name tablet or you will be crusing trying to do anything. The Nook is a great low priced tablet that is very hackable and easy to use. Plus it is unbrickable and can boot from an SD card

Ditto on buying a refurbished one. I also bought one new and one refurbished and could not tell difference. But check out the refurbished ones being sold on eBay directly by B&N for $119.00 plus sales tax and free shipping. Look at posts here in this thread for a direct link.
I have a refurb also that I got from Overstock. It was shipped from B&N. Paid 139.
It was in perfect condition with no issues. 1 year warranty.
So...at 119....it is a steal.
I'm glad to see that you guys have good luck with your refurbs. I ordered one from B&N on Ebay last night. $119 plus $9.29 OK sales tax. I can't wait for it to get here.

Refurb is even better than new. They rigorously test the refurbs so they are pristine.
Barnes & Noble is presently selling them on eBay for $129 with free shipping... And since you are essentially buying from B&N warranty issue should also be no problem.
I scored one for 119 plus 7 dollars missouri tax on Sunday night. Its gonna be a xmas present for a 4 year old who won't leave his mommies evo3d alone. I look forward to being part of your community.

It's a great idea mate. I bought mine refurbished with a 1 year warrenty and I'm happy as can be. Buying a NC new at this stage would be a waste in my options as long as you get it from a good source with a trustworthy warrenty furbed.
Get a good deal from B&N with ebates!
Ok, so I learned that ebates doesn't give cash back on Nook purchases. Now if you buy B&N gift cards (not customizable ones), that should qualify for cash back (8% as of now 11/30/11). B&N also has a $10 eGift card for every $100 gift card purchased promotion ($10 to be given after Christmas 12/26/11). Buy $200 in gift cards and get $20 later. You will also qualify for first ebates $10 gift card and cash back ($200 x 8% = $16). So if you're willing to wait for gift cards and cash back later, you can spend $200 and get $30 back in gift cards and $16 cash back via ebates!

Found a coupon for $10 gift card for $50 purchased at Target (in store only). Expires 12/3/11.

Don't forget to signup with ebates to get cash back and $10 gift card (Target, B&N, others..).
My NC came with very noticeable scratches on the bezel. The screen is perfect dough.

I would call BN and get a replacement unless you don't mind it that much.

This is how I bought mine... I ordered on Thursday and recieved by SATURDAY. Fantastic deal.
Just an update, they are no longer honoring that price unfortunately.
You would think with a quad core tablet now shipping, that the dual cores would start coming down in price.
This is true. Which is why I went to ebay and got mine.

I just got a brand new Ideapad K1 for $250 from staples. On black friday, I picked up a bunch of refurb HTC flyers for $160 but I returned those for refurb Nook Colors for $120. Best Buy had new Acer Iconias for $189 during black friday. These tablets are coming way down, helped by the HP firesale and all of the new tablets. When the quad-core tablets start dropping, you won't be able to find a dual core tablet above $300. Except Apple, of course, they'll prolly try to keep the iPad a couple hundred more than Android so you think you're getting a "premium" product.
Lots of people are trading in nook hd+ tablets into CEX sealed or hardly used as they are so restricted.
However if you install a custom cm10 rom like the ones here you are getting a really cheap tablet with really good hardware for the price.
The grade A models mean it is in Mint condition with box and all accessories. Basically as new. Most of these items will have had very little use and be unwanted presents.
You also get 1 year warranty as well.
16GB is £120 - http://uk.webuy.com/product.php?sku=SEREBARBNHD16GBA
32GB is £145 - http://uk.webuy.com/product.php?sku=SEREBARBNHD32GBA
Saving of over £100 off the RRP and same condition
Good deal for people wanting a cheap full hd 9" tablet
Thanks, I saw that the HD was selling cheap too (for some reason, the 16 and 8GB models are the same price). It's pushed me over the edge and I've gone for the HD over the Nexus 7.
I suppose their loss is our gain.

Not bad, it should be like new. For most of the people who have sold them to cex it seems to be unwanted presents so most are new.
Grade A is mint condition anyway with all items and box
The Nook HD+ are selling fast, only the 32gb model is left online now. Others are still instore though
Over at CEX website you can get some good deals on the Nook HD.
They are grade A items which people have traded in for cash, however they may not have been used.
Grade A means : Item is in as new/mint condition with charger, original box and all accessories.
All the items come with a 1 year warranty.
Nook HD 7" 16GB tablet is £68 : http://uk.webuy.com/product.php?sku=STABBANNOOHD8A
Nook HD+ 9" 16GB tablet is £105 : http://uk.webuy.com/product.php?sku=SEREBARBNHD16GBA
They ship to the UK only.
Shipping is £2.50
Quite a good deal compared to RRP. Most items seem to be like new and have been traded in as unwanted gifts.
The Nook HD + is down to £105, just nabbed one myself.

Yeah its good price.
Damn, these are some extremely cheap prices! I purchased a Nook HD (16GB) for £160, and a Nook HD+ for £270 from Blackwells.
Will definitely take a look at these deals; I'll also take a look if there are any in stores. They probably think they're worthless since there is no Google Play installed by default.

Yeah its because the stock software is so restricted that no one wants them and so the selling price is really low.
In store only. nook hd 8gb is $129
nook hd + 16 gb $149
not sure on the others. i live in valparaiso indiana. in store only. i price matched mine with best buy. used a $20 reward zone card. $139.09 out the door. best buy called and verified stock and price. Walmart seems to have a ton of these

Here is the Slickdeals thread for the Walmart sales. The HD+ 32GB is higher, but the others are comparable. It depends on which is more hassle for you, trolling Walmart stores or getting a membership and trolling Nook CSRs.
Target is getting in on the act. Same sales price as Wally, starting June 9. Regardless of whether Nook is getting acquired by MS, it's pretty clear that all these aren't just normal sales, that B&N is indeed clearing out its Nook hardware.

Well, perhaps they finally found that they cannot fix the broken sdcard controller without a new hardware revision
My guess is they are bailing from the hardware business and trying another approach to remain part of the user content side of the industry.
Picked one up at Walmart today for $149 running cm10 off SD card.
