Valued Staples Customer,

Your recent attempt to purchase item 355306 HP TOUCHPAD WIFI 16GB TABLET or 355507 HP TOUCHPAD WIFI 32GB TABLET on your Staples order listed above is subject to inventory availability. Unfortunately, these items are out of stock and are no longer available.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. We have not billed you for either of these items.

They're telling customers that so they give up and stop trying. I've told you guys already, when Best Buy/Future Shop gets any drop shipments, EMPLOYEES will know about them BEFORE any customer and they WILL buy them.

There is no chance anyone will get one in stores at either of these stores.

I'm not trying to be rude, just realistic. This is how things work. Today alone, there were well over 100+ phone calls asking about the SAME thing and 100+ people coming in RUNNING looking for the same thing. Don't waste your time or energy on something that is unlikely about to happen.

Online purchases or shopping in the States is your best bet.

picked up only 1 from the bestbuy here in ny. when i was attempting to pick up the 5 today, the manager intervened and told me only 1 was allowed even though the employee didn't care and tried to sell me 5 lol

so instead of replying to everyone who pm'd me, i wont be selling off any unless the HP one i ordered comes through. if my order goes through, my extra one will be for vansterdam unless his stock pile is high enough lol :P

Try the langley futureshop heard today they have some still. Also there's supposedly 100k units sitting in the warehouse. Dunno when they'll get shipped out.

And for case, get a non apple brand Ipad 1 case cheaper and fits good. Just heard this one from a friend.

Dear Valued Customer,

We are writing to you regarding your recent Barnes & Noble order for "HP TouchPad Tablet with 16GB Memory".

Due to unexpected customer demand for this item, our inventory was depleted prior to your order being processed so we are unable to fulfill this item as requested. Consequently, we have canceled your order and you will not be billed for this amount.

You may see an authorization on your credit or debit card for the order, but please be assured you will not be charged. The authorization will be released in accordance with your bank's policies.

We sincerely regret any inconvenience that this may have caused.

Sincerely,

Barnes & Noble
