Time to buy / sell your first iPad

If you are looking to buy a first generation iPad at a discount it appears many early adopters are ready to sell. They are all gearing up to plink down fresh money on new iPads in April.

I have seen three sell in the last 24 hours from people I know.

If you buy a used iPad now you stand to get a great deal … and even better … that used iPad is still under warranty at least until April.

If you stood in line to buy the first iPad and you fancy buying an upgrade in April you will obviously get more money selling now than when the new iPad rolls out.

What about you? Are you buying a second gen iPad in April? Are you interested in a deal on a first gen iPad today? Do used Apple products hold resale value better than other electronics?

I dunno. Seems like a long time to go without the functionality of the device. This would only seem to apply to people who use it as a novelty item and do email, web browsing, etc on another device.

I know what you’re saying. I rely on mine as a daily tool. It’s funny to look at craigslist to see who the motivated sellers are. Some have their prices way too high. They’re dreamin’
