 Refurb store has $619 M1 iPad Pro 11” 256gb. 8 gigs ram. New battery/shell factory condition tablet. Smoking deal.
 
how is that a deal if you can get iPad Pro 2024 at $899 educational pricing? Same 256gb and 8 gig ram.

For less than $300 you get M4 and a OLED display. Also a front-facing camera that's actually useful for video conf if you care about that

Cuz it’s one of the larger discounts you’ll see on the  Refurb store. I sold my 2018 for $370 last month and got this one with my veterans discount. Upgraded 3 years ahead for less than $100/year. Its plausible to argue it’s a better value than the M2 Air

where can you sell 2018 for $370? Apple trade in is showing a value of only $235

$300 is almost 50% more. And for my use, the M4 and OLED don’t matter. It’s not that I can’t afford it, but the refurb iPad hits my sweet spot of utility and price.
 
Apple is giving me only $580 for my 13" 6th gen iPad Pro, 128gb, so there are likely good local deals for similar used models via Facebook and Craigslist.

For sure. Apple Refurb provides a compelling option for the price considering you’re guaranteed a new battery and no physical flaws, unlike many secondhand iPads
