Refurbed Nexus 7 16gb Tablet for $155 AR

[jlin101]

Newegg is selling refurb'ed ASUS Nexus 7 Tablet PC for $170. Throw in 20% off coupon (expires 3/16) and $15 rebate and the total is down to $121. It's currently OOS, but I kept checking NE every 20 min and was able to snag one last night. A brand-new one goes for $200.

Anyone have experience with refurbished N7 from Newegg?

Based on what I've read on other deal sites, some refurbished from there have scratched screens and poor battery life.

I just got mine today for $150... I'll have to talk to a rep and see about getting $30 credit.

Screen is fine. Battery life haven't checked yet obviously but so far I'm happy with it.

edit: damn they won't do anything. Eh oh well.

FYI

Maybe use up ome staples rewards?

I had a 32GB Nexus 7 and felt that the screen was too small so I sold it and bought a Nexus 10 instead. I do not take my tablet out of the house, so the small form factor means nothing to me for portability and traveling. The Nexus 10 is unbelievable!

i picked up the nexus 7. i'll be doing a ton of international travel in the next few months. i think having something bigger than a phone but smaller than a laptop will be useful. hoipefully the GPS on this will work well with offline google maps. and if it happens to crap out, well hey, it was only $150 bucks vs $400-600 for a nexus10/ipad

google offline maps can be a pain. I like a real offline gps program. copilot on android is pretty awesome, and cheap.

The Nexus 10 will be my entry point into the tablet world, if the price ever comes down a few hundred below $500.
