When is the best time to buy a used iPad 2 and where should I get it?
Is this the best time to get one because people are dumping their iPads like mad to help them pay for the newest model? Should I wait a few weeks or months? Should I get it from Craigslist, the Apple refurb store, or another retailer?

They're still making ipad2s, so I don't think they're going to run out of refurbs any time soon.

When the ipad 2 came out Verizon burned off the old one at $300. That might happen again.
$350 for a refurb from Apple is a decent deal though, and their refurbs are extremely good quality wise.

I'd definitely go with a refurb and get the Applecare+ for $100. As someone who has busted 2 iphones and one ipad in the last 2 years, I kinda like having coverage for self-inflicted damage.
