I bought a 16GB Air 2 last week for $399, thought I was getting a great deal. So I see that Staples has an iPad Air 2 for $449 so my old one goes back to BestBuy and returned it then got them to price match Staples.
I am now the proud owner of a Space Gray 64GB iPad Air 2 for only $449 plus tax. I'm ECSTATIC. This is the model I really wanted last week but settled for the 16GB to save $100. For $50 more it was worth it to exchange models.
Like someone said up thread. Black Friday in September.
