Looking to save hundreds of dollars on iPads? While the Apple Store is unlikely to slash prices overnight, refurbished products are the next best thing. And before you storm off in disgust, hear us out. Refurbished devices have been vetted by experts to ensure overall functionality — in other words, they work as good as new. And in many cases, refurbished devices even look brand new, too.

Yes, it’s better for the environment to shop refurbished, but it’s also a whole lot more affordable.

Take, for instance, these 10 refurbished iPads below. All of them are a fraction of what you’d expect to pay on any given day, and thanks to extended Black Friday sales, you can still take an additional 20% off when you use the code BFSAVE20 at checkout.
