Do you have a link or screenshot of some kind? I can't find / Google a reference to a Best Buy "July Black Friday Sale"

EDIT: Pretty obscure, but it looks like it will happen on 22nd July. I did a view source and the description meta tag mentions the same.

Damn, I broke down and bought an iPad Pro 9.7 earlier this month with the $100 student coupon. Also saw that my AMEX card is having a $25 credit on $200 at Best Buy now.

Oh well, I've thoroughly enjoyed using my iPad the past 3 weeks especially during the 4th of July weekend.

Interesting that the sale is on the 32GB and 256GB models. Wonder if they plan to drop the 32GB from the line up and replace it with a 64GB? Or maybe add a 64GB along with a price drop across the board?

I would think that with your Apple experience, given your signature, you could easily answer your own question....












NO!!!

No to which? I would be surprised if they don't add a 64, it was always a mistake not to have the 64 in the lineup imho. 32GB for a "Pro" Device?
No to dropping the 32 gig model for a 64 gig model
No to dropping prices
No to adding a 64Gig model, because they want you to pay $150 to move up from 32 Gigs to 128Gigs. Adding a 64Gig option would mean that you could pay less to move up from 32Gigs

Once you know Apple's motivation, the answers are REALLY easy.

Any in the market for an ipad pro 9.7 best buy will be having all the configurations of the ipad pro 9.7 $125 off on their july black friday sale.

Hello mmartinezs,

Thank you for posting this. Can you tell me if you are a Elite Prime member of Bestbuy?

I called my local Best Buy and they said that the special offer that you saw may be unavailable to regular customers.

Think we'll be able to stack this with the $100 student coupon? Probably not right...?
Yes it will stack. This is how I bought my 9.7 Pro 128GB couple months back, plus it was half price to buy AC+ with a second edu coupon.

Tried to stack it with the coupon and it defaults to $599 so it's $499 which is more than the deal of $475.

$599 -$125 = $474 wow I'd vomit had I bought an iPad Air 2 with 16GB and an A8X with all the missing features vs a 9.7 Pro I'd just be so sick I'd vomit.

If anyone was ever thinking about a tablet jump on this deal.

You're right. Sorry.

It must be because this is a special sale, "Black Friday in July". The edu coupon stacks with their regular weekly sales.

This is my 9.7 iPP 128GB wifi I bought back in May:

I'm seeing full price at that link you posted. What gives?

Woo hoo. I signed up as a regular Best Buy member and I am already seeing the sale. Note, it is a sale on the 9.7" not the 12.9".

I am not an elite prime or plus or whatever member. I am a brand-new member.

In order to see the lower price you have to log into the website.
