HP Touchpad Thread (NO Discussion Of Personal Buying/Selling)

upandcumming

Just a heads up to people.

I'm in NY for the summer and I've just ordered 2 of these for $220.
HP have discontinued the Touchpad this week and are now letting them go for $99 (16GB) and $149 (32GB).

I know most of you aren't in the USA but treat this as a heads up to get a very good tablet, with Flash Player, at a knock-down price.

I know, im not complaining about that. I've done it myself before for items when I worked in gamestop. What really annoys me is people working together to buy multiple ones, then selling at a profit, but I suppose you cant stop that.

Its like a sickness if I worked half the hours I've waited I could have bought one full price.

Does he mean staff are precluded from buying?

Staff have been directed that they cannot take them, by order of HP directly.

How did HN get the drop and start selling today for the reduced price ?

Why midnight?Surely it would be close of business today?

Just a thought really, seeing as they said the Price Drop will be decided today but also saying they won't have stock until tomorrow when they actually do have stock.

According to elara, that depends on HP. If we are to believe that it depends on when HP communicates this and whether elara update their site out of hours (seems likely enough, as they have done this before).

Seems like HP would be inundated with emails from retailers asking WTF is going on.
