I’m tired boss.
I bought that exact same black one like 3 years ago. I’m almost positive it was like $150 . Maybe less.
Presented without comment, SanDisk’s MSRP for that drive is $579.99 CAD.
discounts are lies, always have been, and before the “it is illegal to lie about disconts”, have you ever seen it enforced? I haven’t, I track theprices of some goods in some local stores where I live, I have made formal complaints, what happens? nothing, nothing ever happens
I haven’t ever seen Lovense’s products not at ~50% discount. I was buying something on Christmas and rushing to beat the sale in case another wasn’t for a whole, but as soon as midnight rolled around, lol and behold the Boxing Day Sale went live.
More like $300 on.
You mean the one that was $200 before the AI chip BS?
Yes but even accounting for the price spike in the last 3 months, that drive does not cost over $1,000 without a sale. These kinds of sale tactics honestly need to be illegal.
I think they are illegal in many countries, but I guess it isn’t well enforced
In fact, in the EU that is regulated by article 6A (see https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=CELEX%3A52021XC1229(06) ) . That states amongst other things that:
Any announcement of a price reduction shall indicate the prior price applied by the trader for a determined period of time prior to the application of the price reduction. … The prior price means the lowest price applied by the trader during a period of time not shorter than 30 days prior to the application of the price reduction.
So maybe it wouldn’t apply for a 3 month period, but it does prevent stores from increasing the price by say 20% overnight and then give a “10% discount” the next day.
It’s already illegal in Canada, you can report them to the Competition Bureau. I don’t think its very well enforced though.
My buddy called-in Sportchek when they were advertising skis for like $900 but “marked down” to 200! They had to stop that practice as a result of his report.
No, the one that was damn near $100 before the BS.
I’m seeing the WD 2TB at $510 off. Crazy.
Edit: The price history for these things is insane.
What a great deal! That’s 50% off! /s
the only appreciating asset I own are the several 1-2 TB SSDs I have lmao
So according to them a 2tb drive costs almost as much as my entire pc did when I bought it a few months ago. A pc which has a 1tb m.2 in it I might add. I have my doubts.
Still cheaper than a mac
And it’s only a WD blue. Absolutely absurd.
Oh no it’s only “one per customer” !!
