iPad Ipad 10.2 8th Generation sold out everywhere?

[Doctorsti]

Just looked up on apple.com looking for an iPad 10.2 8th generation and it says not available for pickup at any of the 12 apple stores in 3 states. Is the website accurate? Are these things sold out completely?

Some of the configurations are available at a few stores in New England. It might help to know your region and which configuration you're looking for.

I see what you mean. There are cellular iPad Airs available for pickup in your region, but that may be a bigger price jump than you'd like to make.

yeah too much. I needed 3 and meant to do this weeks ago but procrastinated as one does. I am going to go with the 9.7 refurbished units and then swap them out for the 10.2's when they come in. They are kids. They won't know any better and if they do I'll make something up.

We are mere days away from Christmas, so it comes as no surprise that they're all sold out.

Well i am in New Delhi, India and i can confirm its all the same all over.
I was to buy one in November and had to work really hard to find the one I wanted in space gray color.

Just a couple of days back only, the 8th gen ones came in stock at Amazon and were sold out within the hour.

The wifi ones are depleting pretty fast tbh.

I wish you all the best in finding them for your children

I checked a couple major cities along the US west coast a few weeks ago and all WiFi-only standard iPads were sold out until next year even then. I had to settle for giving a belated Christmas gift.
Do all WiFi-only standard iPads usually sell out everywhere by late November? Or is this a covid thing with higher demand and/or lower supply?

Probably Covid related as many school systems use the lowest price iPad for online learning combined with the normal Christmas shopping season. Glad I got mine in early Nov. from Amazon for $286 shipped.
