Two of my Samsung Chromebooks were from Cowboom in like-new condition, $134 after coupon code and cash back and free shipping. One had the freebies still intact, the other didn't, but a Ninja made it right with just one quick request. Given the current price of GoGo and that I'd be buying either some passes or a subscription otherwise, the passes alone were almost worth the price. Of course, the Pixel can't be had anywhere near $134, but the principle of the freebies functioning as a serious discount for those who would have purchased them otherwise still applies.
