Standard deal for these I guess. One time I tried the $59 open box "excellent" from Best Buy, they were swapped used ones *and* were missing the batteries. the coin battery is like a dollar lol

I paired this with my 10$ rewards certificate from best buy and it came down to 59$ + taxes which is a slick deal imo
Note: Many folks got 10$ free rewards certificate in their account. So, please check YMMV
These are useless anymore except to find your own stuff.
Can't use as anti theft tracker.
Apple has the ability to use these and iPhones to help recover stolen goods etc.
However, they instead send notifications to criminals if they are transporting said equipment and goods. I understand these were being used nefariously by stockers. They don't assist Police or owner any data to help with recovery.
Also very annoying as if you want to use one to track a child. Anyone that is in vicinity of your child will continually get notified there is a Apple tag. Example Bus ride 10 people keep getting notifications from Apple.
Could be so useful. Apple honestly turned the device into a barely useful tool.
AirTags work fine for what they're intended for. If you need one now, then this is a good price. If not wait for v2. The rumored updates don't seem to be too extreme either. Seems like form factor will be the same but they'll take advantage of new chip to further tracking distance. Also was stated it will be harder to disable speaker, for stalking prevention.
Scored a pack of these just before Christmas with $30 in serendipitous rewards for ~$39. Only decided because my son had one on his list. Will probably never buy again until the gen 2 reaches $5, unless its something mindblowing and not just "Magicalβ’"
This is a good deal. For those wondering about the Gen 2:
The AirTag 2 will have a longer tracking range than the original AirTag. This is due to the inclusion of a second-generation Ultra Wideband chip, which has three times the range of the original chip.
Other features
The AirTag 2 may also include:
Improved location tracking
A more secure built-in speaker
Compatibility with Apple's Vision and pro headset
A new chip with better precision technology
The AirTag 2 will compete with other trackers like: Samsung SmartTag 2, Tile Pro and Tile Mate, and Eufy SmartTrack Link.
Apple has also been working to address the privacy and stalking implications of trackers like AirTags. The iOS 17.5 update includes built-in detection features for iPhone owners to detect third-party trackers.

You're throwing the baby out with the bath water with a lot of what you wrote. They're still great at keeping track of personal objects like keys and wallets, and they're widely used by owners to recover stolen bikes. I use them with my kids if we go to Disneyland or the zoo, etc.
All Apple did was set it so that if it's in close proximity for hours with someone then they'll get an alert. There is no magic ability that can enable an electronic device to know whether its being used legitimately (or legally). From my usage I think the line that was drawn is fair.
