[QUOTE="Jay Ray, post: 1198423, member: 22020"] Hey guys, I am buying a 32gb wifi iPad for $350. Now, I am going to meet the seller at a cafe that has free wifi, so I can chill out there while I examine the device. Obviously I will test all aspects of the product, like the hardware buttons, wifi connectivity, speakers, screen pixels, etc. Now, there isn't a very good way to test the battery, is there? The next thing... about the receipt: I don't know about you, but I never really keep my receipts when I buy things. Is it really necessary to have a receipt? I realize that the person having the receipt is a good way to ensure that the iPad wasn't stolen or not. So, is it okay to purchase it without a receipt, if I am able to check the product registration on Apple.com? I was thinking of asking the person to log in with his apple ID, then can he show me the product registration to prove when it was bought? He said he bought it in December... but I don't know. Okay, thanks! [/QUOTE]
