[Wcustom]

walmart.ca doesn't even list the item on their site anymore.
Are they aware?

[alex1986]

sold out everywhere already

[folly412]

Some people that spoke to CS claim that coupon orders will be cancelled while others claim that they're valid and will go through with no problems. Still not sure...

They were saying coupons wouldn't be applied but the orders are going through and being approved anyway.

[LimitBreak]

has anyone got one from pc richard?

nm sold out

Slickdealers crashed that site, they leave nothing to no one!

[zbrownlee]

wal-mart-


says they are dropping their prices tomorrow.

where have you heard this?

[du3ce]

wonder how much money hp is losing from this

[GaDoomZ]

Just got off the Phone with a Sales rep.

He told me that if you used the coupon code and if they do not honor it you will receive a call asking if you still want to purchase it without the coupon code.

So you will be charged the price without the coupons, but the purchase will still be approved?

Awesome.

[jujuB]

Prob not too much since they are all being bought.

[canonhope]

UPDATE JUST GOT BACK FROM WALMART!!!!!!!!!!!

The associate got a manager and he told me they had nothing in their system about the sale but sales update at 8:00am. He said come back at 8:00 am and they will have the new deal if all the places like target, hp, amazon are doing it.

I just bought the 16gb touchpad for regular price and will go back tomorrow when they have it on sale, show them my receipt and get the difference back....


worst case scenario I just return it all together and get my $500 back.

Nice man. I bought two 32 gigs at full price. I'll take them to the store in the morning to see about price adjustment.

[Strengthftw]

People who buy more than 5 or so are *******s

I'm most likely keeping 1, and giving 2 away if they even come

[Yanis]

wonder how much money hp is losing from this

they still profiting.

[jeffb31]

slick deals does this on every deal... not just this one lol.. I got a 2400 dollar fridge for 750 dollars, it's sitting in my kitchen because someone at lowes priced it wrong on their website and they honored it.

[canonhope]

They already estimated and wrote off their loss. This isn't a sudden decision. HP and their largest customers (walmart, target, bestbuy, etc) knew about this prior to today.

[bov188]

Mine too, hope it's going to change to item processed soon.

god speed.

[WellHungOver]

if they don't give you the difference back then just return it and as soon as you do be like "ok now i want to buy that exact one again" trollface.jpg and get it for 150 or 100

They told me that they wouldn't refund the difference because its not "on sale", it's discontinued. I'm headed out in about an hour to grab one.

Brehs, I bought 4 of the 32 gb. I'm going to return 2 because I used the 15 instead of the 30 coupon code on them (e'ry little bit helps).

I wish there was a trustworthy way I could sell them to the misc at the exact price I paid.

[Neg_Train]

Hp should be ashamed of themselves.

If i cannot get my hands on one of these , its entirely HP's fault. Letting one address buy multiple Touchpads....

[lexster]

Prob not too much since they are all being bought.

they are losing a lot, since it costs them $318 for the materials of each touchpad alone. not to mention all the money they spend as overhead

Paypal? I'd be in for one at $99

don't think so

The TouchPad hardware was disassembled and reviewed. The HP TouchPad's Bill of Materials are stated at $318.15 with an assembly rate of $10.

[scooterbrah]

i bought the 32gb model a couple hours ago. used $30 off coupon. total price $134 after tax. still no confirmation email yet but I canned them and they said my order was fine.

[invaded]

coupon should be honor since theres no information stating that it excludes promotional codes and such not to mention theres a coupon box to enter

They just want to get rid of them... not give one to every person

[hxa]

They sure sold a lot of paper tonight...
