The Apple Store takes up to 44% off a selection of factory-refurbished 2nd- through current-generation Apple iPads, with prices starting from $219. With free shipping, that's among the best sales we've seen on these models, yielding the lowest total prices we've seen for each tablet with a 1-year Apple warranty (the same as new units). A couple best bets, with comparisons to new models:
