If you’ve been waiting for a great deal on a tablet—and don’t have particularly strong feelings about which one you end up with—today’s the day to park yourself over at Cowboom. Their Deal of the Day is another Tablet Flash Sale, with deals rotating through about as quickly as you can click. These are pre-owned, refurbished units, and the cosmetic damage to them is graded (and sometimes significant), so this isn’t the place to get a pristine piece. But if you don’t care about a few scuffs, it could be the place to score a tremendous deal. And if you don’t like the option you see, well, just reload the page—it’ll be a different choice.
(I’ve already seen a $400 PlayBook come up for $90, and a Toshiba Thrive for just $150. Good stuff.)
I got a Toshiba Thrive last time the tablets were the daily deal and its fantastic! Shipping was super slow, but that gives you time to order the ac adapter (not included) on eBay. I think mine was a 4 or 5 grade, but I didn’t notice many cosmetic defects.. but I also bought an additional rear plate and case.
