Pre owned Kindle Touch 3G + WIFI for $52 AC + tax + Free Shipping

Quote from alanzlinsky : WIll amazon alert you or automatically charge you if you go over the 3g limit on the touch/keyboard?

There is no limit on the 3g, only what you can access with it.

it is limited in that you can only use it to browse wikipedia and the amazon store.

How much better is this than the Kindles from earlier today on cowboom? Is it really worth the extra?

Unless you listen to audiobooks, I prefer the non-touch version.

It's lighter and I actually like the physical buttons for page turning rather than tapping the screen.

Second this. Go for kindle 4 rather than touch. The physical botton is way better user friendly than the touch screen.

have never bought anything from them, how good/okay is grade 5???

is there a way to sort by condition?

This product should be $45 shipped.

NOT a slick deal.

Go on craigslist, and find a used Kindle for $40 if you want one.

3G has NO value in this device and just hurts the battery life. I charge my kindle once a week max, and fyi, there's no reason why you should be browsing the web on an e-reader. I did it for fun (on wifi) and looked on facebook (and it's still pretty slow). Maybe to google, but we all have phones that do that. Checked some photos, just to see how it looks, and it's not a bad grayscale browser, but why? Why? Why would you need to check a website on your kindle? This is for READING. Kindle Fire is just another tablet. NEVER buy that. If you do, you're a noob.

Anyways, Cowboom, I would expect it to be around $40-45 shipped. Whoever thought $57 was a good price, was wrong. Why? Just get a new paperwhite for like $30 (slickdeal) more.

Grade 5 is good. Cowboom has a decent quality control process.

Quote from 9thJedi : no charging cable kills it for me.

just keep refreshing and someone will let one drop out of their basket that has a cable. I was looking, none...refreshed a few times..two 5's showed up with cables.

cable is standard anyway, a lot of phones, ext hard drives, etc use the same one. i have one that shares psp, ext. hd and kindle.

Don't really get the whole kindle touch thing. I have a kindle keyboard and I don't think it is a hardship to use the keyboard for those times when I need to type something in. It was from Cowboom for $42 and it's 3G also. Overall though, I like the kindle a lot.

Yeah, it's just micro USB. I buy them off ebay for $1 each shipped from china. All our phones and my kindle are all micro usb. I've got cables on the computers and on the battery chargers for the phones. That's a sweet deal too, stand alone charger for a phone battery for $3 shipped from china. They have a plug in for a USB cable so they can charge a phone or a Kindke while they have a fully charged battery ready for that same phone or another phone. The kids just charge their phones overnight or they have the option to switch batteries if there isn't time to charge. And the whole thing was dirt cheap, the batteries are less than $4 shipped too. Anyway....

Bottom line is if you have an Android phone, you probably already have a kindle charger/cable

Quote from Steeve : How good is the text to speech feature? (I would use it for textbooks)

very annoying.

FYI: There's a couple of the 4th generation Kindles back that were on the front page yesterday for $29.99. Mostly 4 and 5 product grades. http://www.cowboom.com/product/973417

After owned kindle keyboard, kindle touch, and kindle paperwhite, I love the screen on the paperwhite, but really not a fan of using the touch screen to turn pages.
