Re: iPad 3 no sound issue
I saw some with broken screens that are unresponsive. Are these easily fixed with the £12 kits you can buy or is it a bigger/more expensive job?
Re: iPad 3 no sound issue
I would just get a working one, maybe in a poor condition. Fixing iDevices is a real PITA.
I used to buy broken iPods and fix them, but some were just total right offs and made it pointless. eBay sellers knew this as well.

It's going to go in a fisherprice case, so if the screen is cracked but works then it would do. Problem is even them ones are expensive as it is inevitable that they will need a new screen at some point.
I could use this as an opportunity to give him my iPad 3 which is in the kitchen and upgrade ;)
Re: iPad 3 no sound issue
I would say most partially faulty devices on eBay are honey traps as the seller knows what is wrong and it isn't economically viable to repair or it has passed through many hands already. An ignorant description where the symptoms sound like a simple fix will sucker people in, occasionally there will be a genuinely simple fix (my first PS3 years ago for example just needed the power button holding down to reset the graphics!) but usually it will be a waste of money and end up as spares.

Re: iPad 3 no sound issue
As said I'd swerve the faulty ones off eBay with easy fixes mentioned in the description.
I mean, the sellers know about these easy fixes but ....
I'd check your Tesco clubcard balance, if you have one, and see how much a Hudl2 will cost you.
I got one for £77 to replace my aging iPad the other week after adding a few codes and cashing in on their double points offer, which I thought was quite reasonable.
