Good deal... picked up a 64GB model for my wife (replacing 1st gen iPad Air) a couple of days ago. Thought about shelling out additional bucks for a 256GB model, but my wife has never used more than half of the 32GB on her old Air, so doubling to 64GB should be sufficient to cover her needs.
One additional note: This is a two year old model, so coming out of the box, you'll need to run an update. I expected this when I was setting it up, but after running the update, I got an error message when trying to connect it to a tv. After a few frustrating moments, I discovered a second update still needed to be run. After running that second update, it's connecting as expected.

$380 for a 2+ year old iPad? That doesn't seem very slick, esp considering you can get a 10th gen for not much more.
If someone is looking at the 256GB option in this deal, the Gen 10 will cost 29% more ($130) than the Gen 9 and if looking at the 64GB models, the Gen 10 will cost 40% more ($100) than Gen 9.
Quite a few improvements come with the Gen 10 iPad but there is also takeaway or two. The most notable one: The lightning charge port has been replaced with a USB-C port. For anyome who has already transitioned or is about to transition to the new iPhone 15, this is a good thing. But it may not be appreciated as much by others who are still using iPhones and other devices configured with lightning charge ports.
Ultimately the purchase decision will always come down to an individual's needs vs cost.

If so, perhaps Target Red Card owners can save even 5% or more, if needed.
Costco extended warranty and return period is worth much more than $12.5 saved with Red Card though
