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

Well I was just able to order a 12.9" M2 iPad Pro for $555 plus tax and $10 shipping. Total cost was $605 and I used Amazon Pay. I just received TD order confirmation and just now Amazon emailed me with a payment request from TD.

If they cancel our orders, I wonder what kind of leg to stand on we have. Probably none but I wonder if you fight hard enough of they’ll still give it to you.

If they cancel, we have no recourse.

For some reason I got a 2 order charged via my paypal but I just called and cancel them. My cousin did buy a macbook and got a confirmation number and seems like it should work. Ill update later
 
All the iPad are now sold out. (The 7 or so direct links from the MR article). All the M2 MacBook Air's are now normal price. Also the pricing on the M2 MacBook Airs does not change when you add options to it (such as bigger gpu, and longer warranty), which points to broad pricing glitches on their whole website.

The following thread showed listings for M2 iPads. I am thinking the labeling may have been entered wrong and if the orders are honored, we may end up with M1, even though the website shows M2.

My order which was emailed says it's an M2 12.9" iPP for $555. Wow if this is legit, they are taking a HUGE loss. Most retailers get 10-15% discount. Maybe Amazon gets a slightly bigger discount.

The 256 GB model is still for sale (at least in theory).
 
Can someone tell me if this thing is capable of running photoshop for about 99% of stuff? Seems too good to be true? And can an iPad be a viable replacement for a Mac mini? Mine is really really old.

It is too much loss for them to honor, in my opinion. It will be much easier for them to post on social media that there was a website mistake and they apologize for the error to those who purchased.

That is what I think. If only a handful of these were sold before the mistake was discovered, they *might* honor the price as a goodwill gesture. But this looks like they could lose tens of thousands on this, so I expect everything to be canceled.

Why not shutting down the site? What if they need to raise quick cash? Liquidity problems?
 
I’m in Alaska, so it’ll be more difficult for me to get price matches at stores. The Exchange will only match from certain online retailers outside the contiguous United States, and I’m not sure Best Buy will match either.

Maybe the Webmaster or Office administrator are not aware of the problem, yet. That is an awful way of raising cash and if an accountant suggested selling current merchandise at a 48% loss they should be fired. I could see if it was last years stock but that's not the case here. I wonder if those prices are what it costs Apple to make those products.

I ordered one and used Amazon Pay but I think these will all get cancelled.
 
If you're a non-US shopper you are required to call Tiget Direct's hotline to place an order over the phone.

They're only open from Monday to Friday during office hours. There goes my $2 for IDD.

I’m not really expecting to get a brand new yellow iPad for half price, but I just had to join in the fun. Haha.

The bottom of the page states “not responsible for typographical errors” — wouldn’t this fit into that category?
