Yeah with exchange rate and shipping, sounds about right.
Hope this is the right place to post this. If not, please be gentle, I'm a noob. I can't yet provide a link but a search on Ebay should turn it up. Thanks.
(I posted this info in the Nook Tablet forum first before I was advised that it might not have been the correct place to do that.)
Its actually as you said

Actually... you linked to a blog with last post in November....
"Certified Pre-Owned" Nook Color $135.00 USD from Barnes & Noble
you're right, sorry about that, I was tired
No problem at all buddy.
It is a nice deal, particularly with the bundle offer. However, I got mine brand new for ~$120 after coupon and rebate.
got mine two days ago. they had a deal where you add a Nook simple touch for $20. got both for $150. Can't decide which one I want to keep....

They can both be rooted. Wife got the NC from that deal and daughter#1 got the ST. A white Pandigital Novel trickled from the wife to daughter#2.

lol. They are both already rooted (w/in about 3 hours of opening the boxes). Still, I can't pretend I need both of these, plus I still have my ICS Galaxy tab 10.1... and a jailbroken iphone...
My refurbished one is still working great from ebay from b&n. There was no problem with it and it came with a warranty
I see newegg has them for even cheaper. $116.

Awesome. Still one of the best deals out there for a cheap Android tablet. (Although the Nexus 7 makes it harder. )
Sorry mods about the thread that could go in another thread. But people should see this deal before it is gone. After that feel free to merge it with any thread you feel it needs to go to.
OKAY EVERYONE! READ
Just got this deal too amazing to pass up!
Go to:
http://www.jr.com/order/basket.jsp?...Hash=0a2ace30df7d42028f38788bbc64e14d7ffee550
There will be a 16GB Nexus 7 in your cart with free shipping!
Don't forget to add the July4 promo code for $15 off!!!
Now the Tablet will cost you a total of $234 (unless you live in NY, the tax NY sorry)
Also, the free shipping uses UPS to ship to your USPS post office, THEN Usps delivers to your door. It happens all the time buying from amazon. Just sucks if your mailbox is too small. Then USPS will leave you a slip to go pick it up.
So the shipping may be slow, but you can upgrade to 2 day or 1 day for a much better shipping rate than google was offering!
I was going to pre-order from gamestop today, GLAD I WAITED!
OH! Also note: They will only ship to paypal confirmed addresses, so if your address isn't confirmed, you will have to pay with a credit card and manually type your Shipping info.
ALSO: If you use a MASTERCARD credit card (not debit) They will not charge you until it ships. So A) no balance as of yet, and B) when you are charged you know they shipped.
Do this now! Because they already took the Nexus 7 off their main page! Only a matter of time before they fix this link too!
Not sure when it is shipping, because I never saw the actual listing, but for this price, I could wait a week or two.
Happy hunting!
Oh and act now, because this deal could be gone in minutes or hours.

It's tempting. This would be cheaper than the 8GB model in the Google store. Gave OP a thanks even though I'm not the pre-ordering type. If discount is available from one vendor, it'll be available from another down the road. We appreciate tech toys, but they can only depreciate.
A bit skeptical about this given that the actual item is not currently listed on the site.
I pulled the trigger... worse case they cancel it, I've ordered from J&R before (my laptop) and didnt have any issues with them
ganna see if i can get another 5% out of it via shop discover on my CC
i ordered one prob will get canceled oh well

Well this is probably not going to drop lower than this until used/ refurbs come out.
Google is already losing money on these tablets so there isn't much leeway in price. The only reason it is cheap through this site is because the site always offers free shipping. And the coupon code is site wide, so it was a fluke it was useable for the tablet (also probably why they took the Nexus 7 off their site, so they can wait for the coupon deal to end.

As someone else said, worse that can happen is they cancel on you. And if you use a Mastercard credit card, they won't charge you until they ship. So if they cancel on you, your money was never tied up anyway. Sounds like a win to me and no losses in sight.
Is send to israel?

Wasn't aware they shipped to Israel.
Not sure when it will ship. Because they took the listing down. But it should hopefully ship mid July (when Google ships) or end of July (when Gamestop ships them) Either way, I am willing to wait in order to save over $40.

Well that was just a suggestion, if you don't have a mastercard then you just have to pull the pre-order trigger and hope for the best.
Btw, nice to see the famous MBP is getting a Nexus 7.

I don't think it ships to Israel, but u can use mustop or ushops services to get US address and they will ship to Israel.
seems like jr took down nexus 7 and the link doesn't work anymore
edit: nvm link works.. my bad
edit: just ordered one. Did notice one thing. It never specifically specified it was the 16 gb version ? I know the price kinda implied that but i couldn't really find the actual "proof" if you will.

You are right....
The Item ID does have a 16 at the end, but no proof. I'm going on the OP of the thread that provided this link they said the original description (when it was up) was for a 16gb.
So I'm sure it is a 16gb, but if they run out maybe they will send 8gb and say, well we never said.
Anyway, I don't think it is a problem. If they send me 8gb I will just return it

It's definetly the 16gb model. I Googled the model number the J&R listed for the Nexus, ASU NEXUS7/1B16, and found the same model number, and pre-sales online at B&H Photo, Frys and Adorama. All three online vendors listed the model number as 16gb. B&H's pre-sale price is $249.00 and the other two vendors are charging 99 cents more for their pre-sales.
I hope this puts some minds at ease.
lol @ $21 NY tax.
Can't wait to move. What a joke.
Hey - need two Nexus 7's for Christmas gifts. 8 gig models are fine. Looks like they shut the marketplace down for a while - sorry for spamming the general forum.
PM me if you've got one or more you're looking to get rid of.
The MP is up for me?

I don't know where you're located, but try a B & M store.
Walmart, Staples, and other stores are selling them for $160 (or less).
I just checked Craigslist and they're around $150 (or less).

The CL market around here is thin and none, and the two Staples I stopped at only had GTab displays up. I'll try wally world - thanks.
Can't believe the MP is closing... Good thing I sold all of my devices!
Stupid scammers can't stick to eBay and have to ruin everything.
Anyway, OP, check eBay (don't worry about scammers, just be smart). I see a few go for $150. Just take your time and look for a good deal. Though if you can afford it, why not just get Twp new 16GB models?
Good luck!

They're gifts for kids, and 8gb storage is overkill as it is for what they'll be using them for. Figured I could save a few bucks and snatch up some used 8gb models.
On Amazon and Best Buy, the Chromecast is going to be $29.99 this Black Friday.

Only $5 difference, but seriously the cheapest streamer just got cheaper.

Oh thats what I meant originally
Yup... If you care about rooting now, time to check your local store for rootable stock before they get cleared out!
staples has them with the 20% off coupon right now. that makes is $28, and you can do it now.
you wont find a rootable since they got them this week though.
(Voice of Lee Corso from ESPN): "Not so fast, my friend!!"
I don't know if that's necessarily true that they FOR SURE won't be rootable. I'm saying this because there are still people that are ordering units off of Amazon.com & picking up units at local Best Buy stores that have been able to achieve root. Maybe, just mayyybbbeee you're right..who knows? Maybe these newly purchased Chromecasts are being pulled off the shelf from the verryyy back of the allotment, maybe these Chromecasts aren't all being manufactured at the same facility(maybe there are multiple production locations & they're not all flashing identical firmware?)..who really knows?
Maybe I'm completely mistaken in thinking this, but I'm starting to think that we're not gonna be able to identify rootable Chromecasts by their serial number. In a couple of threads here on xda, we have been trying to come up with some kind of pattern that we can use to spot a rootable Chromecast, but it looks like there are some gaps in the pattern, thus not being able to properly spot an exploitable device. Maybe I'm wrong...this is just my opinion. =)

I'd say the Rootable serial numbers thread disagrees so far, save for the lone verified report that defies the rule.
Many folks make the mistake of setting up and using their Chromecast before trying to root them and they get auto-updated to a non-rootable firmware. So an exploitable/rootable Chromecast really equates to one that has never been connected to the Internet and has shipped from the factory with an exploitable firmware version (12072). Hmm... I should point that out in the thread. Thanks for making me think of this!
Just read an article that stated the Chromecast will be on sale today "only" for $29.98 at Walmart. Don't know if that's the truth or is that they are starting Black Friday sales today??

walmart has them on sale check the website, however theres no mention of the $6 google play promotion, also for anyone worried about staples not being rootable, you can always price match at big stores like best buy or frys. I found a supposedly rootable one yesterday but don't have a usb otg so not sure what to do yet.

I see that now but not yesterday, it's "online", store pickup or delivered and today is Thanksgiving as the article stated. We'll see what it shows tomorrow.
It appears that the article was correct. Late yesterday, online was sold out at the lower price, today it's available online but for $35 again.

If you want to root, it must not connect to the Internet, which pretty much means you can't use it until you get a USB OTG or another way to get power+MicroUSB male+USB A female, root with FlashCast and flash a rooted, non-updating firmware like PwnedCast.

The Chromecast isn't in their flyer. I was going to stop at Walmart on my way back from a family dinner today but the parking lot was scary full. Should have left earlier as it was empty then!
Chromecast $25 + tax
Go here: http://m.staples.com/
Top of the page is this: Save $10 off $30 via text now
Enter mobile number and receive the coupon.
Add chromecast to cart: http://m.staples.com/touch/product.html#397061
Checkout!
For $29.99, with free standard shipping, and $6 of Google Play promotional credit (for movie rentals), Amazon is making the Chromecast a rather tempting offer. :good:
Powned Chromecast
I just bought a chromecast and was able to root it with powned rom. I am not see it as being very useful in my home. Is there a way to put the original rom back so I can sell it?

You might actually get more for it in it's rooted state since some are having a hard time finding one with a rootable serial Number.
