The main places to buy a Remarkable tablet
You can buy a Remarkable tablet directly from Remarkable's official website, from Amazon, or from a handful of authorized resellers. The official Remarkable store usually has the full current range in stock and offers the same price across all channels — typically around $400 for the Remarkable 2 and $600 for the Remarkable Paper Pro. Amazon carries both models and often has faster shipping if you have Prime, though the price is identical to the official store.
Authorized resellers vary by region. In the US, Best Buy carries Remarkable tablets both online and in some physical locations. In Europe and other regions, you may find them through local electronics retailers or office supply chains, though availability changes. The official Remarkable website lists authorized resellers by country if you want to check what's available near you.
Refurbished and second-hand Remarkable tablets appear on eBay, Facebook Marketplace, and Craigslist, usually at 20 to 40 percent below retail. These carry more risk — you cannot verify the condition until it arrives, and you lose the manufacturer's warranty — but the savings can be substantial if you are comfortable with that trade-off.
Key Takeaways
- The official Remarkable website and Amazon both sell current models at the same price, with Amazon offering faster delivery if you have Prime membership.
- Best Buy stocks Remarkable tablets in the US both online and in select stores, making in-person inspection possible before purchase.
- Authorized resellers vary by country and region; check the official Remarkable website to find retailers near you.
- Second-hand Remarkable tablets on eBay, Craigslist, and Facebook Marketplace cost 20 to 40 percent less but come without manufacturer warranty or return protection.
Buying from the official Remarkable store
The Remarkable online store at remarkable.com is the most straightforward route. You see the exact model, current price, and shipping time before checkout. Shipping within the US typically takes 5 to 10 business days. The store accepts credit cards, PayPal, and Apple Pay. You get a one-year manufacturer's warranty on any tablet purchased directly from Remarkable, and you can return it within 30 days if it does not meet your needs.
The official store sometimes runs promotions on bundles — for example, pairing a tablet with a stylus, screen protector, or folio case at a discount. These bundles are worth checking if you plan to buy accessories anyway, since buying them separately costs more. The store also handles trade-ins: if you own an older Remarkable model, you can send it in and receive a credit toward a new purchase.
Buying from Amazon
Amazon stocks both the Remarkable 2 and Remarkable Paper Pro, usually sold by Amazon itself rather than a third-party seller. The price matches the official store, but Amazon Prime members get free two-day or next-day shipping depending on location, which is faster than Remarkable's standard shipping. If you have Prime, this is often the quickest way to receive the tablet.
Amazon's return window is 30 days, the same as Remarkable's official store. One advantage: if the tablet arrives damaged, Amazon's return process is often simpler than contacting Remarkable directly. Check the product page to confirm the seller is Amazon and not a third party, since counterfeit or used tablets occasionally appear under the Remarkable name.
Buying from Best Buy
Best Buy carries Remarkable tablets online and in many physical stores across the US. The online price matches other retailers, but the advantage is the ability to see and hold the tablet in person before buying. Best Buy staff can show you the display, let you test the stylus, and answer basic questions about the device. This matters if you are uncertain whether the Remarkable's writing experience suits you.
Best Buy's return policy is 15 days for opened electronics, which is shorter than the 30-day window at Remarkable or Amazon. If you buy in-store and change your mind, you have two weeks to return it. Best Buy also offers Geek Squad setup and support for an additional fee, though most users find the Remarkable straightforward enough to set up alone.
Finding authorized resellers in your region
Remarkable maintains a list of authorized resellers on its website, organized by country. In the UK, you may find Remarkable tablets at Currys or John Lewis. In Canada, retailers like Best Buy Canada and London Drugs carry them. In Australia, JB Hi-Fi and other electronics chains stock them. Prices at authorized resellers are the same as the official store, so there is no advantage to buying from a reseller over buying directly — the benefit is convenience if the reseller is near you or offers faster local shipping.
Before buying from a reseller you are unfamiliar with, confirm they are listed on Remarkable's official reseller page. This ensures you receive a genuine tablet with a valid warranty. Some smaller retailers may stock older inventory or discontinued models at a discount, so ask the reseller what model they have in stock and when it was manufactured.
Buying second-hand or refurbished tablets
Second-hand Remarkable tablets on eBay, Craigslist, and Facebook Marketplace typically cost $250 to $350 for a Remarkable 2 and $400 to $500 for a Paper Pro, depending on condition and age. The savings are real, but you lose the manufacturer's warranty and have limited recourse if the tablet fails after purchase. Ask the seller for photos of the screen, stylus, and charging port, and request a test video showing the device powering on and responding to touch.
Refurbished tablets sold by Remarkable itself are another option. Remarkable occasionally sells refurbished units directly through its website at a 10 to 15 percent discount. These have been tested, cleaned, and repackaged, and they come with the same one-year warranty as new tablets. Refurbished units are more reliable than random second-hand purchases, though they cost more than private sales.
Price comparison across retailers
| Retailer | Remarkable 2 Price | Paper Pro Price | Shipping Time | Return Window |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Remarkable.com | $400 | $600 | 5–10 business days | 30 days |
| Amazon (Prime) | $400 | $600 | 1–2 days | 30 days |
| Best Buy | $400 | $600 | In-store or 5–7 days | 15 days |
| Second-hand (eBay, Craigslist) | $250–$350 | $400–$500 | Varies | Seller-dependent |
What to check before you buy
Regardless of where you buy, confirm the model number and storage capacity before checkout. Remarkable tablets come in 64GB and 256GB versions; the larger storage costs more but is worth it if you plan to store hundreds of documents. Check the product page or listing for the exact model — Remarkable 2 and Paper Pro are different devices with different prices and features.
If buying second-hand, ask the seller how many hours the stylus has been used and whether the screen has any scratches or dead pixels. Request the original box and charging cable if possible; these are not essential but make resale easier later. For new tablets from official retailers, check the warranty card to confirm it covers the full year and includes accidental damage if that matters to you.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Remarkable tablet cheaper anywhere?
New Remarkable tablets cost the same at every official retailer — around $400 for the Remarkable 2 and $600 for the Paper Pro. Second-hand tablets on eBay or Craigslist cost 20 to 40 percent less, but you lose the warranty. Refurbished tablets from Remarkable itself cost 10 to 15 percent less than new and come with a one-year warranty.
Can I buy a Remarkable tablet in a physical store?
Yes, Best Buy carries Remarkable tablets in many US locations. You can check stock online and reserve one for pickup. In other countries, check Remarkable's official reseller list to find nearby retailers. Most authorized resellers are electronics chains or office supply stores.
What is the difference between buying from Amazon and the official store?
The price is the same, but Amazon Prime members get faster shipping — usually one to two days instead of five to ten. Amazon's return process is often simpler if the tablet arrives damaged. The official store offers trade-in credit for older Remarkable models, which Amazon does not.
Is it safe to buy a second-hand Remarkable tablet?
It is safe if you inspect the listing carefully and ask the seller for photos and a test video. You lose the manufacturer's warranty and have no recourse if the tablet fails after purchase. Buy only from sellers with good ratings and ask detailed questions about screen condition and battery health.
Do I need to buy accessories from the same place as the tablet?
No. Remarkable styluses, cases, and screen protectors are sold separately on the official store, Amazon, and authorized resellers. Third-party cases and screen protectors designed for Remarkable tablets are also available on Amazon and other retailers, often at lower cost than official accessories.
