8GB of RAM
Particularly on x86 models this improves usability with more advanced use-cases, such as the Linux sandbox.
1080p touchscreen
The touchscreen improves the interoperability with Android apps. 1080p resolution makes this a solid media-consumption device.
2-in-1 design
When considered alongside the Android functionality (and relatively long software support life with ChromeOS) this becomes a killer Android tablet replacement.
Where this doesn't necessarily excel is the CPU, which is absolutely solid for the lightweight ChromeOS but like many Ryzen models sounds better than it is (since the internals are based on an older Zen iteration [notebookcheck.net]). This AMD CPU is going to provide almost exactly the same performance as the M3-8100Y [userbenchmark.com] in the ASUS deal I referenced earlier. However, buyers of the Intel-equipped ASUS might understand that the Y labeling indicated ultra-low power usage and M3 indicated a cut down number of cores (2) vs. the mainstream i3 series of the 8th generation (which had introduced 4 cores as almost universal). In contrast, the AMD Ryzen 3 3250C hopes to invoke association with the highly efficient Zen2 Ryzen CPUs [hothardware.com] but in actuality, as is the case with much of the mobile lineup for AMD, the internals are based upon an older revision.
There's probably not a better chromebook you could buy right now for $250. At the same time, there have been comparable chromebooks for less just within the past few months.
Good luck!

Regarding returns, I normally don't call people out for asking questions (this is a discussion forum after all,) but you asked the same question 4 times a month ago the last time this deal was posted.
In that month you could have spent < 1 minute searching and found this:
For an immediate refund, including shipping and handling fees, return your purchase to any Costco warehouse.
Items returned by mail through Costco.com will be refunded - including shipping and handling fees - and will be credited to the credit card used to place your order. You won't be charged for the return shipping.

Anyway to not pay the shipping and handling if they have it at costco or not?
If you were to return it, has to be done physically? Do you get your shipping and handling reimbursed? If you could return it by shipping, you cover the shipping fees? I'm going to assume you get reimbursed for shipping and handling fee that you paid to buy?
No, it's not in store.

Does that mean this Chromebook is old? Isn't that a 1st gen Intel processor?

and not sure how you get to the logic "it compares to an old processor, so therefore this product, which does not contain said processor, must be old". that's like saying a new corolla has less horsepower than a mustang from 20 years ago, therefore the corolla must be old.
