ODguy,
I am in the Houston area. Do the stores have them in stock? Shoot me a PM and enable it in your profile please. Thanks for the tip.

from what i saw in the computer system, seems like EVERY Houston store received 4 this past week.

the sku on this printer is 146-981

We already had one lady call every store in Houston to hold one for her... dunno if she actually came to get them.

Realizing I'll be at (or on the phone with) my local OD at 10:00am sharp regardless, do you have any idea if this is going to be a "national" deal? I know the OD near me had an 1100xi on display last week (wish I could remember if/how many boxes were there...).

Also, is there anyway to check/reserve stock _tonight_?

I just know there's going to be about 10 anxious looking people standing outside every OD tomorrow... Probably ought to wear Anandtech arm bands or something.

Thanks,
RC

ODguy,

Can you tell me if the stores in Denver have these for $89, and if so, do they have any in stock?

Thanks in advance.....:)

All you lurkers out there, don't buy these to pawn off on Eb@y you won't get jack for them
There is already someone dumping about 40 of them in various auctions. Maybe he already hit up most of the stores.... so please keep this to personal use only.

Just a quick note: I read up about this printer and it doesn't appear to be exactly a model of "HP Quality" (at least HP hopes it isn't). It seems there are a lot of people complaining about paper jams and misfeeds after 1 year / 3000 prints. (CNET Review)

That said, for under $100, it's still a pretty great deal. (Thanks ODguy)

Jeez you're right about them being dumped on E*ay. Found 66 of them from one guy. The idiot has 1/2 of them with an initial bid of $438 and the other half with an initial bid of 1 cents but with a reserve (probably of $438 :D). So far the highest bid he has is $55. Hope he chokes on them!

You know, I'd love to go get one, but I'm sick of looking like an idiot going to office depot only to find out that the employees have no idea what I'm talking about, the item has been out of stock for 9 months, or trying to get someone to do a price check and having it ring up at (surprise surprise) exactly what it says on the sticker...

Can anyone verify this deal?

you sure it comes w/ a printer cable? i was under the impression just about every printer is sold w/o one.

anyway, nice deal if anyone can get it. laser printer wise, i think our HP4P will do :)

It's definitly not Nationwide... I called around the Atlanta area and they all said $299 price ... also called thier Catalog 800# ... same price $299

* Flot * That's why I call now becuase of way too much time going all over to find out the deal is regional .... sometimes you just gotta let a hot deal slide

Hi Guys,

Just wanted to mention I just got through to someone at OD here in Houston & even though they aren't yet open (9am) he went ahead & checked the sku for me.

He said they didn't have any (OD at Kirby & OST) & didn't know if any other Houston stores would have them b/c some were supposed to get shipments and some would not.

Anyway, he also mentioned that corporate is supposed to fix the price on this today b/c it should be $299. (it still showed as $89.99 when I called though)
