I got my son an IdolPad for about $80. Spent $200 with the screen warranty, screen protectors, case with keyboard.
Idolpad Plus
Plays games, does netflix, good wifi range.
I don't like the charger and it doesn't like to charge via usb but you can.

If that has the A13 cpu, it's pretty slow.
anything with a rk3066 cpu should be cheap and perform well enough.

Wifi via China post is that bad or good? I live in Hungary so im pretty far away from there.

Save some cash and buy Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 (u should be able to get brand new for about $180)
Over stock Android 4.1.2 it has also official support of Cyanogenmod, which is a huge advantage.
Avoid noname chinese junk.. you will get no software updates, custom ROM's or any support in that matter, you can also expect lots of apps to be not compatible.

I think with the New Nexus 7 coming out soon, you can probably get the previous (used or refurbished) Nexus 7 on Ebay for that price. MUCH MUCH better than any of the other Chinese knock-off tablets (they will lag pretty bad), and better value than the overpriced IPads. Source: I'm using one and loving it!

Waiting is always good if you can, though I think you can find pretty decent Chinese tablets these days. The problems with ordering from Chinese stores are that it's a little risky: you might not get what you ordered or get it in a bad condition, and you won't have a warranty, or it will require you sending the tablet to China. Still, most people do get working tablets, far as I understand.
Regardless of where you buy them, cheap tablets usually suffer from low battery life and worse compatibility with the Google Play store. Still, if you know what to expect and don't need the best experience, they can provide a satisfying experience.
In any case when you buy it's important to check the specs: (prices in this discussion are in Chinese stores)

I can only recommend the Blackberry Playbook, I think it was 400$ or so when it was released, soon dropped to 200$ (because people didn't like the Blackberry-OS for some reason - I don't get it, you can even install android apps) and when it had dropped to 200$ I bought a completely unused (still in original packaging) from ebay for 130$.
You should really invest these ~50 extra bucks, because what you get for it is incredible:
A fast tablet with great resolution, well manufactured, good camera and many other features. Oh, did I already say that it has a working Flash-player? And good enough hardware to handle it?
