Whats the cheapest place to get the TF101 dock shipped to canada?
I bought mine at CompUSA refurbished for $114.00 and have had no problems. 90 day warranty-CompUSA and I think a 1 year with Asus, although I dont know if they ship to Canada, but, it is definitely worth while to take a look at.
$112 from Amazon used. That's pretty cheap and Amazon has a great return policy
http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-list...?ie=UTF8&qid=1330648389&sr=8-1&condition=used
I found this:
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/ASUS-EEE-TRA...ccessories&hash=item4600ddc3b1#ht_1969wt_1272
$95.99 + $9.99 shipping + 13% tax = $120 (canadian seller). Do you think thats a good deal for a refurbished ? The problem with amazon and compusa for it to ship to canada is like another $20
$137 taxes and shipping in, thinking about pulling the trigger myself!

B&H Photo has them new from $117; shipping to Canada may be about $10?
Staples has them for about $100 and i got mine a few months back
I just bought a brand new one from ebay for $115. There's a few more in stock.
Got mine from B&H yesterday. Got the tablet at bestbuy for 400. B&H has it new for 350. Sucks I forgot to look their first.
At b& h photo it says that the 32gb tf101 has been discontinued!

Dock
I bought mine from Best Buy for $150. I wish I would have bought mine off Amazon. I see new ones around $100. For anyone looking I would try there first.
I had ordered a used dock from B&H for $95...They actually sent me a used TF101 instead! So now the wife is a proud owner of a tablet.
Still no keyboard dock though. It kills me that the price isn't closer to $100, but I acknowledge that no other docking keyboard has the extra battery life.

I bought a TF101 about a month ago, been itching to get a dock since then. Sadly stock has been scarce. The upside is that finally a couple of retailers have dropped the price on the dock here in Canada ($150 seemed expensive IMHO). For fellow TF Owners here in Canada I've seen the dock as low as $114 or a combined TF101 (16GB) and Dock for $499 (thesource email blast this morning). Anyone else looking for a dock at a good price I'd suggest bestdirect.ca or comtec.ca
Finally picked one up from BestDirect. Orderded July 11, 2011 22:00 delivered July 13, 2011 10:20 total price including taxes (free shipping) was $129.27 Canadian WOOHOO. Although this online retailer is located in BC they shipped it from Markham Ontario (perhaps because I am in Ontario). I'd highly suggest anyone in Canada looking for the dock save some time and money and check them out
Picked up a 16GB+keyboard dock for $499-$50 coupons = $450 from Staples.ca .... that's probably as good as it gets right now
it gets better
staples.ca does price matching. Go into the store with a printout of the amazon.ca deal where you get the 32GB+dock for 599 and they will price match (they gave me no trouble anyway)... so the dock ends up being 100 canadian.
****.. that's crazy cheap. x_X
Surroundedbytrees - was the dock you received from BestDirect a B50 or B60?
It's a B60 is that good/bad/ugly?

Does it matter? As long as it works.
I stopped at a Best Buy to grab a Scribe Pen before the holiday rush and found out that the price went back up to $79.99 (previously on sale for $39.99) On the website it shows out of stock and at the increased price as well. I talked with the rep that worked at the Best Buy Mobile store and he said they might decrease the price next weekend for Black Friday.
I tried ordering one from Amazon in bulk packaging (there were only 2 left when I ordered) but now it's showing out of stock. Hopefully I got it in time.
Anyone know where to find a good deal on a Scribe Stylus in case if my order was too late?
There is a seller on Ebay that sell OEM HTC stylus for $29.95.

Yeah I checked out eBay and saw that one. It's definitely an option. I had a $5 credit for Amazon and should be getting a $10 credit for Best Buy soon so I was looking to get the Scribe from them. I just want to make sure I'm not getting a cheap knock off that doesn't work properly.
I saw the black scribe pen, from the jetstream, on Amazon for 29.99...

I purchased the black OEM one from eBay, and it works just fine. Both of the buttons work and frankly I think the black looks better.
That being said, I have never used the silver one. Another thing to note is that the one from eBay doesn't come with a battery. I'm not sure if the BB one does, but I had to go to Radioshack (my BB didn't carry the batteries) and it cost me about 8 dollars for a pack of two.
Ugh, I can't find my stylus. Going crazy looking for it, but I think I'm going to have to buy another one soon. Thanks for the tips on where to possible find cheaper ones.
Noticed that the price was back up when I stopped by Best Buy last night to pick up some Bluetooth headphones. I was going to pick up a stylus also, but decided against it at that price.
Are they nuts at Best Buy (for raising the price just before Black Friday), or could it be a pre-cursor to discounts on the Flyer price which they want to recoup through accessories (whici is SOP for Best Buy - they will try to saddle you with a "high quality HDMI" cable for your new TV for $59-99 when you can get the same quality from a $10 Amazon cable)? Here's hoping for a few more Flyers in the $200 range!!!!!
So very hard to find these buggers in Canada
Looks like Abe's of Main has the gray docking station in stock
http://cameras.abesofmaine.com/search#w=transformer prime&asug=
The site also says the Gray 64GB tablet available in 2 to 3 days.
Champagne dock, 32GB tablets in both colors, and 64GB tablet in champagne showing as available in 4 to 6 days.
their return policy seems really tough
Looks like they are in stock, but they have horrible reviews all over the place.
Just placed an order for the grey dock, hopefully it will be here next Tuesday when my TFP is delivered from Best Buy! Thanks for the post!
How reliable is this estimate? Anyone order from them before?
I ordered a champagne dock so let's see.
BTW found these
$5 Off $75 or more Use Abe's of Maine Coupon Code ABESAVES5
$11 off $150 or more Use Abe's of Maine Coupon DEALPRO11
$10 off $150 or more Use Abe's of Maine Coupon Code ABESAVES or LOYALTY10
I tried to use the 11 one by adding a mini hdmi cable to put me over 150 but it kept taking the free shipping away and trying to add 9 dollars in shipping so I just used the 5 dollar one off...

I've bought 3 cameras from Abe's with absolutely no problems in the past. Just ordered this dock. Thanks so much for finding this. My Amazon order is now canceled. Woohoo!

Nice job on finding the coupon codes.
As for reliability, I've ordered from them in the past, but it was awhile ago. So hard to know how accurate their shipping time estimates are.
*edit* my mistake got excited and made a mistake.

omg, I got all lined up to buy a dock before they were gone, then right before I hit submit I looked again at the price and was like, wait even with shipping this is high, then I realized they are selling these docks for $300.
What a bunch of crooks, selling it for twice what its worth.
I want it and I want it bad, but not enough to pay twice as much as it cost. I could buy a reg transformer for that.

You sure you didn't just put 2 in your cart? I ordered the dock with overnight and it only cost me $192.

THANKS to whoever started this thread.
Well I hope they actually ship it overnight. It was an f-load of money to overnight it. I will be calling tomorrow to make sure they will get it here by Saturday. If not, I plan on cancelling.

Thank you!!!
Ordered 2 day shipping and hoping it will arrive with my prime next Wednesday.
So people have had success with Abe's before?
Kinda scared, but pulled the trigger.
Thanks OP
Yeah Baby!
Guess it's no news that docks are sold out everywhere at the moment, and I have been waiting on Gamestop, who let my dock order date slip, then slip further, then they pulled the est. date entirely! Got all over their case today, and corporate calls me (I actually got an email through to CEO Paul Raines. LOL!) and tells me "It's not released yet, and won't be until end of January!" This from VP of logistics.. so I KNEW I was screwed if she didn't know what was going on.
Super happy to have this placed, got 2-3 days shipping, should arrive right within a day of my FREE Prime. (Yep... I got full credit from an unnamed retailer for F%$ing me up so bad it was a crying shame.) Now stop ordering these, so they don't screw up and oversell the stock!!! LOL!

Thanks for the feedback!! I've google their reviews, and its fair reviews in my opinion. Some really good, and some not so good. I ordered the dock, and the 64gb. Will cancel my amazon and expansys after I get a tracking #. Amazon, Expansys, and FRY's quotes me late January. Expect FRY's no ETA at all. Hoppefully I dont get an email in a few days saying backordered!! One good thing is there is no tax, I saved $55 of tax on the tablet. My total for dock and tablet was
Subtotal: $ 755.18
Price Discount: $ -11.00
Shipping: $ 0.00
Tax: $ 0.00
Total;: $ 744.18
I trust Abes of Maine from when I purchased a Camera a few years ago. The fact they accept paypal is nice too. I also canceled my Amazon dock order since it has a Feb estimated ship date and I figure even a back ordered dock through Abes will get here before February.
Amazon must have a ton of these things and the tablets preordered. Their estimated dates are so far out.
Pulled the trigger at Abe's too. Hope it works out Thanks OP!!

I hope you're right. Based on your post I just ordered a grey 64 GB Prime.
I didn't post about Abe's earlier because I found the negative reviews as well.
Hello,
In November there were a number of places selling the dock for 99$. Is this because of the older firmware? I am trying to find it cheaper right now but cannot really find anything less than 125 after shipping and taxes. Does anyone have any advice on where to find the dock cheaper maybe like 110?
i feel you OP, im in the same boat as you. saw the dock priced at $99 around black friday/xmas time. tried to hold out for some type of "better" deal possibly. Then right after saw the price shoot up to like $180 lmao. I couldnt believe it. As of right now we have 2 options. search ebay or craigslist for someone selling it for cheap or wait until amazon comes back down on the price. Ive been watching it since it jumped from $99 to $180. its been steadily coming down ever since and as you said
its about $125 now. we just have to wait a little longer

yeah i guess you are right haha. thanks for the reply. man don't you hate that feeling tho when you miss a good deal? hahaha
I don't know how you feel about ordering from amazon but I would look on there. They have a Used - Like New Transformer Dock for 111.31 with Free Super Saver Shipping.
Taken from Amazons Condition Guidelines:
Like New: An apparently untouched computer item in perfect condition. The original plastic wrap may be missing, but the original packaging and software is intact. There are absolutely no signs of wear. Suitable for presenting as a gift.
Can't post the link since this is my first post
Enjoy!
there is a place on eBay selling refurbished docks for $99. I forget the name of the place, but it appears they had good ratings and lots of sales.
I saw it listed on gizmodo dealmodo today (actually it was the tf101 for $298 +shipping or the 32g version for $399 with free shipping) .

I finally decided to order my Xformer today and got it from B&H for $250 (used)
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/800836395-USE/ASUS_TF101_A1_16GB_Eee_Pad_Transformer.html/mode/edu
They are also selling used keyboards for $90...but I guess I got the last refurbished one cause its $118 now.
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/761727-REG/ASUS_TF101_DOCKING_Eee_Pad_Transformer_Docking.html/mode/edu
The amazon marketplace sells the keyboard for $107 used.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B004U78628/ref=dp_olp_used?ie=UTF8&qid=1328491725&sr=8-1&condition=used
Newegg currently has new dock for 129.99, refurbished for 119.99
They also have refurbished TF101 for 289.99. The sale started just today.
Amazon has new dock for 124.06. "Used - Very good" for 112.89 and "used - like new" for 115.38
If you are going to buy used, get the ones being sold directly by Amazon(aka eligible for free shipping or Prime) as Amazon has amazing return policy and quality guarantee on even used items.
"Used - Like New" is supposed to be in perfect physical condition according to Amazon's own definition of it. If what you receive isn't in perfect physical condition, even a little scratch, call up Amazon and they will give you a partial refund to make up for it.
www.bhphotovideo.com is doing even better. I got my used TF101 for $250 and the keyboard dock for $116 new.
They also have the TF101 new for $350 which is the best price I've seen for a new one.
Used has a 30 day return, 90 day warranty.
Just ordered my dock of the AAFES exchange website, usually 145 but a 17 percent April 1st coupon brought it down to 120.35. Pretty good deal if your eligible or know someone who is in the military. BTW the coupon is site wide but the only Transformer things they carry is the dock and a case
Or, like I said above, you could get it for $117 with free shipping, just need to be breathing to be eligible.

Yea that's probably the best price for a brand new dock(other than ebay) but it really depends on where you live. B&H's free shipping would be incredibly slow for me since it has to go from NY to CA.
I get free 2 day shipping at both NewEgg and Amazon but I prefer Amazon cuz of no tax lol.
Saving a few bucks is not worth waiting a week for it.
Makes sense. I get it in two days because I'm east coast.
Got a dock for $50 from a dumbass on ebay with a bad charger. He blamed it on his dock. When I got it, the dock worked flawlessly. I'm using it right now.
