Poll: HP TouchPad - $99 in US - any sign of UK drop?

[Hamster]

Are you sure they actually ordered 100? Some people there know how easy it is to wind up people who have been desperately hunting for something.

Gratz to everyone that managed to get one....I wasnt so lucky

A workmate just got one upstairs in the airport terminal for £74, the 32gb one is £85 in ****** tax free. Sadly he got the last one.

Worth mentioning if you are going to be travelling.

Remember to check in store at Staples, they have stock and dropping the price today

John Lewis are all but out - price reductions showing on our internal systems but not online (although they are out of stock).

Am out of work at 1400 ... Might try my luck around town - not holding out any hope though!

Still not had a second confirmation or a cancellation email from CPW. Guess I'll have to check on my lunch.

hmmm may take a trip down to my local one. Shame I have to wait until rush hour passes before even going near my car

 

[Baplad]

Aaaaaaaaaaand, Im back!

Looks like I didn't miss much, I will spend all day checking e-mails from amazon now!

7am price drops on John Lewis site, already out of stock.

 

[Edrof]

Hmm how come these are still at max price in the rainforest and the dudes at Jersey? Shouldn't they be 'sold out'?

 

[MikeHunt79]

Ok, I'm programming all the shops in to my sat-nav now so I won't get lost in town later on.

So far I've got:

Staples
John Lewis
PCW
CPW
Dixons
Currys
Tesco

Are there any others that may possibly have any in stock?

They didn't have stock even at full price...

ah!

hopefully they have stock and are just doing the price getting ready for a mad rush

 

[dasyad]

Need to call Comet and CPW first thing to see if my orders are actually going to come through, fingers crossed

 

[sponk]

One of the sites I'm staring at had 1400 stock yesterday and 800 now. Still full price.

Guess that's it for me, sleep now, will miss 7:30, 8am, 9am, possibles. Prob. not much point calling in at staples early afternoon, eh.

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

Still a bit gutted by this, if only I didn't have to go to work all day!
Hopefully some of the 'reserve everything everywhere' folks cancel spare orders when one goes through.
I expect to miss any other price drops though, have to keep some refreshing on the phone in vague hope I get lucky!

 

[Jono8]

The staples near me opens at 8am but I don't want to get there only for the price to still be at rrp!

How does Staples’ price–match guarantee work?
If you find a lower price anywhere else on a new identical item, just show us the lower price when you buy the item at Staples and we will match the price, or within 14 days of your Staples purchase and we will give you the difference.
