    i knew i wasnt getting a perfect ipad, but this was so close to perfect! all thats wrong with it is some faint scratches done with likely a pencil, but getting 350 off for that and 256gb is a steal like no other. but be warned-you can't buy this and expect a brand new perfect ipad. if u want a new one, get a new one. im very happy with my purchase, it shipped quick and safely, ty!! they even added their own charger and apple brick, which i thought was nice.

    I love the mini I purchased; it was sealed and delivered, and the device was well-wrapped. My complaint was paying for expedited shipping and it being delayed, with no refund offered. I reached out to online customer service but could never speak with a live agent. I believe it is a rip-off to pay for additional shipping and not actually receive the promised delivery.

    A Positive Experience

    After looking at all my options for replacing an Apple laptop, iPad, iPad Mini for many months, asking the people in blue many questions over several visits, comparing prices, I finally bought a refurbished iPad Mini. Your Apple folks are very knowledgeable, answered all my many questions, both about products and services. When I picked up my device, your folks helped me transfer and set up my new device and helped me be confident that there was nothing left on the devices that I recycled at your store. Being an older person, I am often 'talked down to' by young sales reps when looking at devices and services. No one I talked with at Best Buy did that and I found that most welcome. I'm still learning my new device, but I love it. Thank you.

    iPad to beat

    It worked fine but had a visible damage on the corner so I ended up returning it. I own several other iPad mini so I couldn’t justify the price with the visible damage. It worked fine but since it looked like it was dropped I didn’t want to risk keeping it with 30 day warranty and not 1 year manufacturing warranty. I would buy another one just not this specific one.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
