Micro Center - Apple iPod Nano 4GB for $199.99

Just curious - where did you find this? I have the latest Microcenter ad in front of me and I see the 2gb advertised for $199..
 
:confused: Howcome if I want to order it online from them, it shows $249 for black 4GB?
 
Weird - I literally just received the previous advertisement in the mail. Thanks for the info, Spoofee!
 
Thats what I was wondering. Theyre prolly using that as a way to get people into the stores.
 
deal dead

This deal is pretty much dead and it's only in B&M stores only. I manged to pick up 2 on Tuesday and they went all out of stock that night. They told me it was a price mistake and they still honored it. Spoofee should mark this deal dead for sure.
 
error in advertisement

i've just called about 3 microcenters and it seems that it was an advertisment error (or that's what the lady told me) but they will honor it. and it's instore pick up only. That only applies to the ones in OH and NY. so if you've got the time or a micro center near you that's your best bet. Get me one too =) enjoy
 
I was going to buy a black one, but there is no way I'll drive 50 miles to the closest store. Do you think if I call them, I can phone order it for $199?
 
I doubt you could buy it, but they might hold one for you if you explain that its 50 miles from you.
 
I called my local store and was told that it's a pricing error but they said that they will honor the price...if you can find one. Most stores are sold out. They get shipments in twice a week but they don't know what is on the truck so they might get more in but it's a crap shoot.

If they get them in (highly unlikely) they'll be gone within minutes for that price.

Good luck and congrats to those who can actually get one for that price!
 
seems like its sold out quickly...
or they're lying until they fix the price :shrugs:
 
I'm going to grab an ad and get Best Buy to pricematch. Why not??
 
i just tried it and got shot down. was told that microcenter isn't a competitor...
 
I got one out of the best buy near my office. They'd only sell me 1 at that price. You have to argue with them a bit. I started to raise my voice a little and the manager caved in.

FYI, quoting from the best buy policy:

What is considered a local retail competitor?
A retail store located in the same market area as your local Best Buy store.

Not worth the trouble since you can buy now a black 4GB one for $229 + free shipping
 
snagged another one from circuit city. Even got the 10% pricematch bonus hehe. $194.99
 
GREAT iPod Nano 4gb Deal! (190.00 or Less)

Okay--here it is:

1. MicroCenter's recent mailer (www.microcenter.com) advertises a black Apple iPod Nano 4gb for 199.99 (that's $50.00 less than everybody else including the AppleStore).

2. MicroCenter (with everybody else) is completely out of stock on the black unit.

3. Circuit City will pricematch at 110% anybody else's advertised prices. I went to Circuit City and found a white 4gb Nano in stock. Well, Circuit City price matched the advertisement and I got a 4gb Nano for under $190.00!

Note: There is nothing in Circuit City's pricematching policy that states the unit has to be the exact same color! AND most places do have the white unit in stock! Trust me, you'll want to get a case for it anyway so the color hardly matters! Sweet! :)
 
$199.00 is for the 2 gb version. $249.99 is for the 4 gb that's what I'm seeing at microcenter :(
