"We do have them but Apple told us to hold them until Sunday for an event." They wouldn't sell it to me.

Exactly what happened to me. I call BS on Best Buy, I highly doubt that Apple was the one who told them not to sell until Sunday. I emailed Best Buy customer service and reported my local Best Buy. No response yet.

I don't understand all of this hassle. Why didn't you just order from the Apple Store online back in mid-April? You'd have had your iPad 2 by now.

I already have one ordered but the wait is still 2 weeks for me since I ordered late, which is why I've been looking for them locally. If I find one sooner then I can just cancel the one I ordered on Apple. Make sense now?

Yup, I'm with ya. I just assumed you'd been looking locally for more than two weeks rather than ordering.

If you haven't already, try ooschecker.com to see if you can find one locally. I've had good luck with that site.
 
No need my friend, I walked into another Best Buy around here and walked out with two iPad 2's in my hands. The people at this Best Buy seemed more than happy to sell them to me, no questions asked! :D
 
Stopped by a local Guitar Center today in Hollywood. Plenty of iPad 2's (black & white) are available there. :D
