Is this HTC Nexus 9 special real or fake? Or, unloading refurbished return defective junks?

HTC Holiday Special

Reading user negative review on Amazon HTC Nexus 9, is HTC products really that bad?
Are overheat and screen bleeding and many defective hardware issue resolved?
Amazon.com: Customer Reviews: Google Nexus 9 0P82100-16-BLK 8.9-Inch, 16 GB Flash Memory Tablet (Black)

Or, HTC just trying to unload all the returned bricks?

If they were returns, open box or refurbs, they would have to state that.

Is this HTC holiday special sale real and still active?
They ask for my credit card info when check out.
How can I know its real?

 

[Traveller]

Ask them.

Well, I am pretty sure this HTC Google Nexus 9 does not include any MicroSD slot.
In fact, as far as I know, all Google tablet products do not include MicroSD slot. Even some Google (bt not all Motorola) mobile phone products do not include MicroSD slot.
Can any one contradiate my findings?

I do not want to use any tablet or mobile phone without MicroSD slot buildin.

Then you're not getting a Nexus device. No Nexus device, with the exception of the very first, comes with a MicroSD card slot. This is because Nexus devices are built to Google's specifications, and those specifications preclude MicroSD cards.
