Hey all,
Just ordered the "Geek Squad Certified Refurbished" Gear Fit from Best Buy for a total of $54.24, I technically got it for $4.24 due to the fact that I got a $50 Best Buy Gift Card for using Samsung Pay on my Note 5. I'm excited for it to come, however, it won't arrive until next Thursday.
Do you think this was a good deal?
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/samsung...lack/7142038.p?id=1219251893047&skuId=7142038
Looks like it's actually $99.99 now. Damn. The price has gone back and forth from $49.99 to $99.00 over the past few days.
Nice deal. I recently replaced my old Gear Fit with a new one which I got for 66€ at a local telecom shop.
Sold the old one for 80€ on Ebay
The $49.99 price is because it was the Deal of the Day. $99.99 is the normal price for the refurbished unit. I just got mine yesterday, and as of right now, I'm not impressed. I cannot get it to connect with my phone (Galaxy S5).

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
I came across an add for the Sony Tablet S that I thought I should share with some folks who might be looking for a deal.
Sony Tablet S (32gb)
Sony Tablet S Cradle (A/C not included)
although it says that the A/C is not included, I think there will probably be an ac adapter in the Sony Tablet S Box... I remember I purchased a different bundle that included the tablet, a cradle, and an ac adapter, and i ended up with two AC adapters because one came in the box with the tablet, and another came in a box by itself.
in any case, it's 479.99 after the advertised checkout-coupon here's a link:
Tigerdirect.com Sony Tablet S 32gb + cradle
Pretty spiffy deal wish mine came with a cradle.
I'd guess the ac-adapter that came with the tablet would just plug into the back of the cradle.

yup. the 32gb tablet alone sells for 499.99USD on the sony website. so really, you're getting 20 bucks and the cradle free.
the power port for the cradle is the same a the tablet. that's why i thought it was odd they would send two.
I think I lucked out when I bought my 32gb because I was able to get the Sony employee sale price of $399 end of November. But here is a little incite on that... If you have a local Sony store I would ask them to hook you up with the employee price. My understanding is they are able to do that and as I was told a sale is sale towards meeting their goals. If you haven’t bought one yet and are considering I would give it a shot. It worked for me and just like I had nothing to lose so do you. All you have to do is ask for it.
I'm a little pissed that I Purchased the Sony Tablet S on 1/2/12 for $499 now it's $399.
Best Buy policy is only 15 days return so I'm stuck at paying that price.
I wonder if Sony have some kind of refund policy just like Apple when they dropped the price with the iPhone.

Bummer, but not much you can do now. Enjoy your tablet.
I lucked out and got one from Best Buy at the $399.00 price with $75.00 off for being an open box. All of the accessories were included, just no box.

Nice, that's almost half of what I paid ($499 + 6% tax). Only if I waited one more week.
I paid 429 for my 32gb about two weeks ago
I bought mine (16GB) from tigerdirect for $316 shipped, refurb.
Advertised as open box.
So far so good.
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.
so my fit would not charge to turn on after it sat for a few weeks including trying all the suggestions on here and the web.
so i had purchased the Best Buy warranty for $25 when i bought it that had a 2 year full replacement feature and i wouldnt normally buy them but $25 and i was wearing it on my wrist so i did buy it.
today i went to get that replacement Fit since mine was broken and the Best Buy assoc says "would you like a $179 BB Gift card or a replacement Fit" and i had no idea that was an option and without question took the $179.
in my opinion its a year old now and i had my fun but that cash could go to something newer tech or whatever.
anyway in case anyone else has issues and bought this warranty its great to know you have this option.
will miss my fit a little but was using it less anyway
Hi
Folks coming to the party 6 weeks late, get freebies that early adopters were not offered.
Free Galaxy Buds with your Note10+ here in the UK if you bought between 10th Oct and 24th Oct
https://www.samsung.com/uk/galaxy-buds-offer/
Leaves a pretty sour taste in ones mouth, and will stop me pre-ordering in the future when better deals are available to those who wait.
Just claimed anyway, with the attached image as my receipt. Still trying to get rid of the nasty taste, it used to be that you got freebies for pre-ordering, now it appears you are better waiting.
I pre-ordered directly from Samsung and got a $200 voucher toward accessories. So I got these buds, wireless charger, and also car charger for basically free. A lot of people pre-ordered from retail stores, but they did not get as much free stuff when compared to directly ordering from Samsung.
Yeah, I preordered from Sprint and got $150 in accessories. Got the buds and a battery for it. Also got $16.67/mo loyalty credit for flex lease.
