Might be a boosted shipment. Hence not posting the store name / number to make sure they're only bought by "real" customers and not ebayers. If they really wanted to lure people in with their low prices, wouldn't they be screaming from the mountain tops that they have iPads in stock? People would come running. What are they gaining from selling discounted iPads secretly? Twenty new customers?

I am in no way affiliated with the store. I highly doubt they are stolen being it is a College Campus' store. That being said, the reason for me not posting the address or name in the thread was purely because as someone who has been looking for one for a while, I have seen many people trying to resell for profit on craigslist etc. I figured this way it would not be out there for lurkers of this site trying to do that to go scoop them up and rather go to people that are truly looking to enjoy it themselves.

Had you at least hinted that it was a college store then all this brouhaha could have been avoided. All makes perfect sense now, even the discount.

And you wouldn't have given anything away, hinting "campus store" in Manhattan is like suggesting you found one at Ray's Pizza.

You need a student ID to get a discount at SVA or NYU.
 
ipad

Not sure how many of each left but there are def. 64gb 3g in stock. Also they are cheaper than apple retail price $599, $699 and $799. Post here if want address and I will pm you. Trying to get them in the hands of people who actually want them this way as opposed to people trying to resell/already have one.

How do you pm on this? I ordered my ipad from the store Wednesday, after finding out 3G is sold out everywhere! Please let me know who has it!
Thanks
 
Debbie, you need atleast 5 posts to PM.

To poster above, yes obviously a scam LOL Considering me and 4 other posters have gotten an iPad from there.
 
Twenty iPad customers. Again, unless they can offer better pricing on everything, loyalty will be short-lived. Nobody's going to come back and keep buying just because they saved $30 one time; they're going to have to offer something else.

Not necessarily true. I will preferentially shop at small outlets with good customer service and knowledge of their products, over big chains that employ mouth breathers, even if I have to pay slightly more. The difficulty is getting to know they exist in the first place.
