I recommend this site very much to people who are looking for an iPad, tablet or phone, etc. and don't mind it being refurbished and preowned. You can get iPads, tablets for even less depending on the generation of the device, if you want the 3G, 4G or not and with more or less space. You don't need to pay for shipping if you live here in Australia and you get warranty as well which is great. I have bought an iPad at EB Games myself and been really satisfied with their service, as they give you plenty of support and if anything goes wrong you can always contact them to cancel or change any orders.
Note: I'm not saying it's for everyone but feel free to look at it to see if it's for you or not. In my opinion, just take this as a last resort if you can't find anything else better and reliable, I got my iPad within a week or two? It came to me in pretty good condition and almost like new or once used as I had trouble finding a better deal on iPads on other sites.
Few years ago they where aelling zoom 2 for hella cheap refurbed and was the best price going at the time.
As you said its not for everyone but you get some for of warranty with this.
I also was looking into getting a refubed ps3 from them… cheap and powerful blueray player for $100.
