Deals: M1 iPad Air Hits Record-Low Prices at TigerDirect, Starting at $313.99 (48% Off)

Mine shipped, so they are being pushed through just fine.

They said so. They may have even created a shipping label. But until tracking shows it left the warehouse and the delivery service has it, I wouldn’t count on it.

That said, I did order one thing. I don’t expect to get it; I used PayPal and the worst I expect is a $470 charge to hit my Amex for a few days and then go away. What the hell, it’s unlikely but decided to try it. Pretty sure it will be canceled as a pricing mistake.

Yeah dude, they saw your order come in, boxed it up, and ran it over to Fed Ex all within an hour on a Saturday.

Or maybe, they just mark it as shipped so they can bill all the marks on this website.

Showing out of stock now.. I hope my order went through .>

Anyone making a purchase isn't using cash - they're probably using a debit or credit card. If there is fraud, those underlying banks will assume responsibility/liability (credit more so than debit).

Looks like the iPad Air deals are ending.

I got a 1TB 11” M2 Pro for $757, but I’m quite certain it’s going to be cancelled.

Same.

 

[startergo]

I wonder if they are going out of business... Again.

 

[UltimateSyn]

Very curious to see what the outcome of all of this is. I have two layers of theft protection between me and the purchase (PayPal and AMEX) so I'm hoping I won't get screwed. Still trying to get BB to Price Match but I'm assuming that won't end in my favor.

 

[sw1tcher]

It has to be an error. Not worth the possibility of compromising your credit card.

Really tempted to try, but I'm not feeling like it's safe to give my credit card info here.

Virtual credit cards FTW!

 

[sam_dean]

Really wish my iPad was a 2015 model.

 

[Jedimindtrick]

lmao at all the people that say their's "shipped". can't wait to check in 2 weeks with everyone crying they wasted hours trying to get their money back. tigerdirect... seriously people.

Tiger Direct has been around since 85. Which is why Best Buy price matches them. They used to have brick and mortar stores but went online only a few years ago. Also, you think MacRumors would post a fraudulent site?

 

[Macalway]

Wtf! Go Tiger.

And either they are all nuts at that Best Buy or that guy is (nuts), either way.

Tiger hacked, please....

A lot of those workers there remind me of Brady Hartsfield

 

[sw1tcher]

I’ve joined the crowd to see what happens. Feel pretty comfortable with PayPal in the middle. Now to figure out how to pay for all this stuff if it really does go through and stick. 🤣

OnlyFans 🤣

Same. It may take a few weeks, but that’s a risk I’ll take since I also used my Amex via PayPal. Because of those protections (and the merchant not seeing my CC info), I’m not worried and worst case, I’m temporarily down a few bucks and I wasted about five minutes.

I wish people luck with their purchases, but something tells me they will be cancelled.

This is what I did. First time using a virtual card with Capital One.

 

[ELman]

Did the same thing. Very easy to setup with the Capitol One app.

Didn't know Capital One offered that as a service!

Not sure if I want this to be true or not
Instead of one of my cards, I have the option in PayPal for $6500 credit line that is no interest for 6 months. I ordered two iPads and went plum wild on the MacBooks lol.

 

[rukia]

I ordered three iPad Air's and three 12.9" iPad Pro's. Most likely this is a pricing error but let's see if they honor the price. Given that the iPad Pro 6th with M2 just came out it's unlikely to be half off so soon. You wouldn't even see prices like this on Black Friday.

 

[UltimateSyn]

Comms I received from Best Buy:

Uh-huh...

I think they will honor a few... but you are correct, they will end up cancelling it.

Figured it’ll either get canceled, or by a miracle it’s true I’ll keep the MacBook Air configuration I like best and return the others unopened.

Did try at local Best Buy now. Had two safari windows open and guy asked to help. Asked it he would price match and he saw TD and said no. I said on your site says specifically you match them. Didn’t convince him. Said they will match their normal prices at TD but not this fire sale.

Seems so b.s. and arbitrary! They should just implement a max % match so that they can at least be adhering to a clearly written policy vs. deciding what to honor or not honor on the spot.

Isn't this usually the new iPad announcement time of year? I can't remember.

There’s one easy way to remember: when your iPads look like they got into an auto accident with a basket of easter eggs… it’s because they did.
