Buying used is smart but the market for Apple products is so tight that its hard to get much of discount buying second hand.
I debated buying a used Ipad 4S for my mother but the cost didn't justify skipping the new iPad.
iPad "Air" smart cover.... $80! WTF....
I picked up a Poetic smart cover on Amazon/Ebay for $5 performs identically...

I was using my jailbroken iphone as a hotspot but decided to spring for the 4g, Sprint has a 2gb deal for $14.99/month, no contract, which is enough for me. The price for used can be high, but I also see that as a benefit because I can sell my used "i" stuff for a nice price when I want to upgrade. I sold my 3 year old original iPad last year for $305 when I bought the then new iPad. I figure I can sell this Mini in a year or two and buy another used, newer mini for not much more. The key is buying smart. I bought this 64gb mini for what 32gb mini's were going for.
