Got one for a little bit over $35 during the Amazon.com Prime Day sale with free one-day shipping - It's the 5th gen one with a 7" screen. They come in different colors, but I got the black one:
These things are awesome for how cheap they are - I just wish that Amazon ran some form of Android with a custom UI instead of this Fire OS crap, because of that, any Android app has to be ported to that system in order to work on the tablet. I don't even mind the ads, I just wish they would've done that.

I bought one of these before Prime Day for $50, overall, it was still a nifty purchase in my opinion. Fire OS isn't all that bad, there are still a lot of apps for it. But Fire OS is based off of Android so all you have to do is find the .apk of the app you want online that isn't available in the Amazon app store.

Was it a base model or a higher end one?

base model
Ahhh okay. I want to get the HD 6 sometime since it has Dolby audio and isn't too pricey.
