I just walked into CostCo and Holy Moly the iPad Air 2 WiFi 128 Space Gray is selling for $559.00 and the iPad Air 2 64 Silver is going for $489.00
The offer expires on Nov 07th!
Congrats! I picked up a 128GB Air 2 last month at Staples, $150 off. Some great bargains floating around.The CostCo is 140 off for the 128 G model. Bought one.
My other iPads, mini 1 and iPad 4 are LTE. just could not pass this up!
Just ordered a Silver 64GB from Costco at $489. It's my first iPad. I have a MacBook Air and an iPhone 6Plus, both with AppleCare. Should I worry about getting AppleCare for the iPad with Costco offering their 2 year coverage? Thanks in advance.
Hmmm....when I purchased my iPad Air 2 I thought I read the warranty board at customer service and I thought I read that it excluded Tablets from that.
I really hope that I was wrong.
You are exercising self-control of extra-ordinary magnitude. (bonus points for anyone who knows the reference)This sale, and the similar one at Staples, is making it really difficult not to get one.
You need a membership for Costco?
Sorry! Yes you do for any of the warehouses (SAMs Club, etc...)
The offer expires on Nov 07th!
...or these retailers have contracts with Apple to move "X" number of units per quarter and are falling behind their targets.Interesting that the iPad Prosumer is rumored to be released Nov 8th so they're either clearing out inventory of a soon to be discontinued item or they expect demand to drop.
Depending upon one's needs you are correct. As a tablet using it in touch mode, the Surface 3 falls a bit short but makes a terrific netbook.Surface 3 4GB/128GB for $539 with edu discount is more useful.
