Slopkdave, awesome! Now I am jealous you got it for cheaper.

I just happen to check it to see, but, there are sites like camelcamelcamel out there that help keep you alerted when this happens:

Wow price decreased to $1315 on amazon. I was waiting for the ivy bridge model but not sure how much longer I can resist this temptation. I also have $1500 in gift cards too...

PS - if anyone is interested in the amazon purchase, I can give you my gift card for 5% off the face value. So that saves another $66, bringing the notebook down to ~$1249. PM me for details if interested, I probably won't be selling this GC right away though. Need to decide if I should use it to buy this notebook myself

Slopokdave, thanks a lot! I just finished a chat with amazon support and got myself an $84.27 refund too. Now I feel slightly less bad about buying myself such a nice toy.

You're going to feel really bad if my order for $1103.41 ships.

But I am not holding my breath.

Wow, a price drop already. I guess they didn't meet their predicted sales quota or they're trying to get rid of the rest of their Sandy Bridge stock.

I doubt it is a "real" price drop. I think it is some competitive pricing algorithm where the price mistake from Transformersandgsmphones at a much lower price automatically triggered a price reduction from Amazon's own price. It is currently at $1,315.72, which is a very odd odd price.

[WhiteFireDragon]

Hmm amazon price increased by $2. I really wonder how they come up with these weird random numbers. Still having a hard time deciding to pull the trigger or not before it goes back up to full price....

It's back up again...O.O
