Do Amazon Sell Tablet PCS or all through 3rd parties?

    If they do, who can I choose to look at their selection only on their website and not third party sellers?

    Not sure if such option exist in tablets case but having said that:

    click FREE Super Saver Delivery

    then you pick a tablet , click it

    You should see something like this

    Sold by ...... and Fulfilled by Amazon.


    http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/help/customer/display.html/ref=hp_3149101_top_fba?nodeId=200106510

    Amazon acts as a guarantee and it is almost as if you are buying from Amazon itself, so if there is a problem you can use the Amazon returns policy, which in my opinion one of the best internet based policies.

    Yeh see I'm looking for a tablet but am not sure I want to rick buying from China (problems and one ahs to pay postgae back etc) but if I buy one from Amazon they would be the people to send it back to right? Even if it's a third party seller?

    I would prefer to buy that I would only have to send it back to GB instead of China if there was a problem with it, would this be the case on buying anything from Amazon.co.uk ??

    Thanks for help

    The best way then is to search like Jarren suggested.

    I did the following:

    * Search "tablet"
    * filter by supersaver delivery
    * filter Amazon.co.uk

    then you get a list of tablets that are sold only by Amazon directly. I made a link of my search here for you. If the link works you should see the same list of Amazon only tablets :)

    By the way, if you're looking for anything useful in tablets, make sure of a few things

    1: it should be at least dual-core
    2: CPU should at the very least run at 1GHz.
    3: Screen should be capacitive (some really cheap and horrible tablets still have resistive screens - avoid em)
    4: Check the capacity and expansion. You'll want at least 16gb internal memory (storage not RAM) and if you think you need more always good idea to look for tablets with expansion via SD card etc.
    5: If possible opt for something running Android 2.3 or better.

    With these basic steps you'll likely find a fast responsive tablet that plays movies smootly and does everything else fairly quickly - enjoy :D
