Apologies if this isn't slick as I'm completely new to the Chromebook market, but I believe this refurb Acer Chromebook Spin 713 13.5" Intel i5-10210U 1.6GHz 8GB Ram 128GB SSD from Acer Official (eBay) model CP713-2W-5874 is an all-time low for a refurb. And it comes w/ 2-year warranty. 2K touchscreen w/ nice 3:2 display.

It hit front page in August for $395. Is $379 a must-buy?

https://www.ebay.com/itm/264838534587

Edit: YMMV, but I was able to purchase directly from Acer and was not charged any tax here in Texas. I don't believe purchasing from acer refurb comes with the 2-year warranty that eBay has, but in this case I'd choose the lower price.

@willo13b had similar tax-free success ordering directly from target.

Edit #2: Use code EPIC2021 @ Acer's website for $19 off. Looks like it takes off the same $19 whether you use EPIC2021 or 5% email code, but not both. That makes it $360.99 for me, tax free no shipping. Hopefully most if not all people live in a state where, between Acer and Target, they don't get charged tax. And as a few others have mentioned, you can get extra % back with either a Chase Freedom (PayPal) or Target Red card.

Crap, I forgot to do that. I used their contact us form. Hopefully they can retroactively give me the discount, otherwise will have to cancel/return the order and re-order again.

Also for anyone else who has a Chase Freedom card, you can use paypal to pay with your Chase Freedom and get another 5% back (4th Quarter cash back category is paypal).
Buying directly through Acer Recertified is definitely cheapest: with Acer's 5% code popup + Chase Freedom's 5% off PayPal, the total savings should come out to $379.99*.95 *.95 = $343 + Tax.

However, keep in mind that for Acer Recertified, BUYER pays return shipping. Not quite sure that free returns through Target/Walmart/eBay is worth giving up the extra 5% off from Acer (~$18), but it's worth keeping in mind given this is a refurb.

Heads up I got mine from Acer through Target and didn't get charged tax and got 5% off using red card plus free shipping. Try that route!

I don't have a redcard but even no-tax savings would be awesome. Unfortunately, at least for me here in Texas, it's showing $31.xx tax to ship it to me w/ that Target link (and my OP eBay link). Free standard shipping, no in-store pickup availability option.

Is the no-tax a redcard benefit?

Edit: Although target seems to be charging me tax, the direct acer website isn't showing any tax during checkout! I haven't clicked all the way through to the final screen and actually purchased, but I may try purchasing direct if I can be redirected to the paypal website without actually submitting payment yet. Some websites catch me off guard and the redirecting to paypal and my payment itself constitutes the agreement to purchase, and I return back to the store website to learn my order was already submitted (rather than prompting me to click one final "Submit" button).

I don't think so it's probably a location thing. Sorry it didn't help! Maybe it will help others looking for this nice piece.

See above; I was editing my reply when you responded. You still helped in that you got me trying the same thing at acer's own website and it may work tax-free for me there:

And just like that, I successfully placed the order through acerrecertified.com and it didn't charge me tax! So hopefully that helps people, whether they get it tax-free through target or acerrecertified!

Yep this is a great deal. This model is better in battery life than the current gen. Only if you are coding heavy would I get the 2021 model over this one.

Touchscreen right? Based on my search "YES" but all these links don't have anything in the descriptions.

I ran into the same question and was similarly annoyed that links weren't more descriptive. Also like you, I googled, and per the internet and the assumption the internet is accurate re this model # CP713-2W-5874, internet says YES.

Also a bit new to Chromebook vs PC. I have a few Chromebooks that my kids use and none have a really powerful processor like an i5. Real question: Why would I want so much horsepower in a Chromebook?

if you order from acer's site, I was prompted to enter my email for an additional 5% off (received the code via email in about a minute), as well as no tax, so it's $360.xx out the door
