I bought an iPod touch 10 days ago, and Apple's policy says they'll refund money back to you if you bought an item 14 days within a price drop. Am I eligible for a refund due to the Black Friday sale?
No. As above a temporary sale is not the same as a reduction in price (which is a permanent change in price). You'll have to chalk this one up to experience: if there is a well known, pre-publisised and predictable sale even coming wait for it.
