Need advice as to if I should buy this used iPad

[MikeonTV]

it's 16GB wifi !!only!! iPad that comes with the official Apple Case, dock (no keyboard) and VGA connector cable. We have agreed on $620 USD for it.

I think this is a good deal considering the demand for the iPad and the fact that I'm in South Korea and where the Apple trend is just not as high as other places.

So should I do it?

That sounds alright. You might be able to buy them all new for just above that price though.

I dont understand your answer. If I can get a new iPad (with case) for a little more than I'm paying now why would you say it "sounds alright"?

Because the iPad has yet to have significant depreciation in value.

I wouldn't pay an extra $120 for a used iPad with dock (no keyboard) and VGA cable and case. The case is $40 if I'm correct, VGA cable is $30 if correct, and dock is also $30 if correct - which is $100 + $499 for brand new iPad from apple = $599 which is less than $620.

I see. So paying (even) a little more for a new on makes no sense when there is a used one for 50 bucks cheaper. Okay thanks. Decision made.

Wait ... Can I even buy an iPad in South Korea? I dont think so.
