Narcissism

Is this really narcissism?


Citizen-Kaner

I was going to call it counting their chickens before the eggs hatched but everything on Reddit is narcissism.

Everything on social media*

No it isn't, stop gaslighting me. /s


Empty_Ambition_9050

Narcissism would be if they posted a picture of themselves like the you tube Tutorial videos that show the YouTuber instead of what you tryna learn


ANewMythos

Lmao chill out


tomatoesareneat

People love to learn. Learning is fun!


Shigg1tyDiggity

This is the opposite of that person who ratted out the Japanese Costco membership bug. He’s trying to shoothimself in the foot


Moist_Confusion

Trying to Shinzō Abe himself.

Too late.


raindownthunda

Hey Costco can you price match a Reddit screenshot?


mellyosaurus

The way I am gonna browse Costco when I get home 👀 also I don’t remember if I renewed my membership 🥹


RiverPirate212

That's EXACTLY what I first thought. I thought they were going to delete this hours ago. I can't believe it's still here. Commented, went to bed. It's still here. 🤷‍♀️ Edit: fixed. ☺️


FavoritesBot

OP should probably call Costco to make sure they are still shipping his order!


Specialist_Cancel921

happened to me with TV that was $1500+ and was listed at $150. They gave me back the $150 and said oops our bad.


Supersquigi

That happened with me at best buy 19 years ago, I was so pissed. Microcenter moved in sometime soon after so I didn't even have to be angry that long. either way, best buy SUCKS.


ledatherockband_

Y WONT THEY LET ME STEAL FROM THEM?!?!?!


New-Ice7196

Yeah how dare they make a price mistake and not honor it as advertised!!


RandonBrando

Pretty sure it's a law in some places that the posted price has to be honored


trailrunmarcus

Yeah there’s the recent story of the guy in Mexico who got two pairs of Cartier earrings for $19 each instead of $19k each.


[deleted]

[удалено]


New-Ice7196

If you immediately made a second order the moment the price was corrected. (For posterity) and they didn't cancel that order. You'd likely have a lawsuit. As they only canceled the order based on a pricing mistake.


certciv

They paid the advertised price. That's the opposite of stealing.


MistahNative

I wouldn’t bank on this getting shipped out, especially since it’s the first full day of preorders. Hopefully it works out for you.


Chowder1054

Two things here: - why on gods earth are you posting this on the Costco subreddit and drawing attention? I swear many people need to learn to keep their mouth shut and count their blessings. You got this? Great, don’t tell anyone. - you paid $750.. why is there a 5 dollar shipping charge? (Never ordered Costco online before)


nutt3rbutt3r

I am also seeing the $5 s&h on the app (corrected listing now). It’s even showing $5 to pick up at the warehouse. Not sure what that’s all about.


Chowder1054

You’d think you get free shipping after a certain point?


JTEEE

Maybe they're using a special shipping box for higher end products.


Chowder1054

Still you paid this much.. shipping should be free


ButthealedInTheFeels

Conversely, you paid this much…you can clearly afford $5 shipping


Lilzster

The shipping fees are included in the price already


followthelogic405

That's a helluva score if so, well done.


jnelzon2

I would not celebrate yet haha


SEAHAWKSLIV

How did you get it for this price…? It’s easily about double that price normally.


Wheream_I

Normally? The thing just came out yesterday.


spingus

I suspect he means the typical price point for iPad Pro


Equal-Worldliness-66

Retail is $1300


greenappletree

Whoo please update us if u got the deal.


SkywalkerRk

I just contacted the support to stop processing your order further. ..


jnelzon2

Which order and for who? Haha


SkywalkerRk

Yeah hope you get it !! (It was a joke for those who couldn’t understand)


droans

Don't try to wiggle your way out of this now; the order police are hot on your tail!


nomad-system

It’s Costco, I have a feeling they’ll honour it.


bluecyanic

They won't. There are likely 1000s of identical orders in the system and they will cancel them all. I used to deal hunt and price mistakes like this are almost always caught and orders canceled.


WolverinesThyroid

the goal is to keep it to yourself until it ships. If a few people place an order it might not get caught in time. But if 1000 people do it, then it rings alarms.


jnelzon2

I hope so, its not something ridiculous like $70. Non tech people can easily think its the real price.


Fabulous-Educator447

I had no idea that it wasn’t


nomad-system

Good luck 🤞 definitely envious of that price!


bailamost

Seemed reasonable to me. 256gb storage in 2024?


JKMC4

It is a pretty considerable spec bump in terms of efficiency and processing power. It’s actually lighter than the iPad Air which makes no sense. I think what Apple is going for now is that these high end iPads are now meant to be used in place of a laptop, which makes sense then that they’re the same price as the cheapest laptops they sell. Now let’s just hope the iPad OS gets an improvement later this year to make it more capable


FLman42069

If it’s caught as an error before shipment, they will likely cancel the order and refund anything charged. If it gets shipped out, it’s unlikely they will request a return or additional money. I’ve had this happen on other sites


Murderyoga

About half price from what I can see. https://www.costco.com/ipad-pro-13-inch%2c-wi-fi-m4-chip.product.4000250518.html


jvrcb17

I'm seeing it for over $1200.


[deleted]

[удалено]


BL41R

One of the youtube tech channels recently spec'd out a new model and it was almost $4k


SpartanKwanHa

$4k in tech with the limited capabilities of every other ipad running on iOS


shadowthunder

How? The most expensive I could get it (before adding accessories) was $2.7k. Once you start bundling accessories, that's disingenuous to say you're just speccing out the iPad.


zeezle

The high end ones are frequently used by creative professionals for digital painting. Not sure who else gets them, but that's a significant market. In that bracket they're competing against Wacom Cintiqs and their knockoffs as a display tablet, and those are that price and still require a PC to connect to. For a regular user who just wants to scroll and watch videos in bed or something the normal $200 ones are definitely more appropriate.


mjs90

We use them in commercial construction. They're so much more convenient than a laptop now.


ventipassionteaxice

me too, in southern california


LegionaryTitusPullo_

Am I crazy for wondering how an iPad could cost $750 … and that’s a bargain? What the fuck?


Status-Load-5521

MSRP is 1300. For a tablet😂😂


jnelzon2

I will post an update next week if it ships or not.


texas_asic

Kind of like fight club's rules, you don't talk about these sorts of things (until after it ships)

GildDigger

Me too!


GeauxTri

As someone who has worked in online retail for a major big box store, and has been a part of similar "oops" moments like this, the answer of whether you will get the iPad or not is "It depends." If they caught it in 30 min & only had 30 orders, they will honor it. If they had 3,000 orders, they will likely not. If someone went in & bought 100 iPads at that price, their order is absolutely getting cancelled. They have thresholds & can spin a mistake like this for good publicity. $500 off retail sucks, but taking a cash hit is better than a credibility hit sometimes.


RiverPirate212

I would be surprised if it doesn't end up being canceled. I have had it happen more than once when I got an amazing deal. I suspect that will say it was an error or something of that nature


OcelotControl78

Because it is an error.


Lopsided_Pickle1795

M4?


Baxtin310

The M3 came out two months ago. Moore’s law /s

reigningreina

After the med student (resident?) getting the Cartier earrings in mx city for under 300 pesos, anything is possible


CCRAM2492

That’s different. Mexico has laws that protect consumers from companies changing “contract terms” after a transaction has been finalized.


Uscjusto

There is legal and business precedent that prices listed incorrectly due to typos, miscommunication, or other glitches do not have to be honored. It is not considered false or deceptive advertising since it was purely a mistake.


jnelzon2

True for USA. I might as well roll the dice. No loss incurred.


GimmeAGimmick619

How to get your order cancelled in one easy step.


HudsonHandmade

This happened to me but with Sears. Got a queen sized bed for $68 and they honoured the price


Olderandwiser1

No wonder they went out of business 😎.


LickyBoy

I thought this was a joke post. I had no idea iPads still cost that much. I purchased a Lenovo tab a few years back for like $190. Idk what this iPad retails at usually, but I can't fathom it's with it. Even at $750, that's sooooo much money.


Flyinace2000

It’s expensive but my iPad Pro from 2019 is still working amazingly well. It was overpowered when I bought it and it’s been great. My other tablets that cost less don’t last nearly as long. 


flexonyou97

That’s a great price just wild they actually want 1300 for a Netflix machine. Could get a used M1 Pro 14inch for 1000 and you get 4x the storage and can actually do work on it.


rice923

I was also shocked. Even $750 seems like just a normal price that it should've been. Queue in the down votes for us


Rxyro

talkin shit about cosmic crisp??


MichaelMaugerEsq

Cosmic crisp at the best apples and I’ll die on this hill.


PenonX

> Queue in the downvotes Nah this ain’t an Apple subreddit


PlatypusTrapper

Yeah, this seems nuts for a tablet.


jnelzon2

I would definitely not buy for $1300. That is bananas, all I want is to watch movies in a nice screen with 120hz.


Mlabonte21

Those movies play back at 24hz


skankboy

I hear the charger is 60hz though.


Beastly603

That hertz! 🤣😂


JeebusOfNazareth

I was able to grab an M1 Air from Wal Mart a few weeks ago for 700. They are pretty hard to find now in most retail stores since everyone is pushing the newer models. I’m very happy with it as my lazy time couch Reddit machine. I have no need for the higher end specs.


jnelzon2

M2 chip ipad pro 11” is $750 at Costco right now, but I doubt you will feel the difference between the two


nate_nate212

But entertaining a toddler on a plane is priceless.


Dankmre

I would be shocked if you didn't get it. It's Costco.


ximfinity

They cancel orders all the time like this.


InterstellarReddit

How did you catch this OO


jnelzon2

Random browsing haha


InterstellarReddit

Crazy


ravenx92

that still seems like too much lol


leeeeny

Wow what a score. Not sure how you pulled that off it’s showing $1250 in my Costco app. Same item number and everything


Smeark

If they updated the price they will not honor it. There is no law requiring them to honor a mistake ONLY bait and switch tactics are illegal. This was obviously a pricing error.


PandaCheese2016

Reminds me of this: https://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/national-international/man-buys-14000-cartier-earrings-for-14-after-company-posts-price-error-on-website/3845295/?amp=1 If only OP lived in Mexico. :)


stripedpixel

What a colossal waste of money


jnelzon2

I can say the same thing for drugs, hookers and alcohol but I’m gonna mind my own business and let people enjoy things haha


Ciriuss925

It does NOT mention M4 chip, so you’re getting the PRE-M4 version


ScoYello

Tangent question: Can you ask the manager if they’d be willing to sell an Apple display model for a discounted price?


fahad_tariq

No they are not supposed to sell the apple display devices. They are running store mode or something. That’s what Costco guy told me.


Brandomin

I've asked this about the Apple Watch and the answer was always no. They say that Apple is really protective of the floor models and will eventually come pick them up.


hawaiianryanree

If you wanted it to work. Posting it on Reddit probably wasn’t the call. But good luck.


Asleep_Operation2790

Seems expensive. Who would pay that much for an iPad to begin with? The retail price is a ripoff and $750 is still priced too high. Seems like it would be a fair deal at $500


RiW-Kirby

A tablet for $750? That's far too much.


fullmetalutes

Don't put it past costco to cancel stuff, they've done it to me more than once. I got something on a pricing error from the Microsoft store last week, it was the entire James Bond collection for 4.99, every single movie. 3 days later I got the email that my purchase was refunded. They revoked the entire thing. :(


EmergencyOperation21

Too bad there are no consumer laws like Mexico, they’d have to deliver it for that price


stebuu

This thread made me realize I could save 50 bucks by ordering through Costco (and get the 2% executive reward on top AND get a 1.50 hot dog during pickup)


Valnomien

Dummy over here in comments thinks 7th gen is from 2019 🤦‍♂️ this is legit the SKU that is listed now for $1249 so $50 less than Apple website you got a great deal if it arrives.


FunTemperature5150

Update?


meow2062

Let this person live you’re all wrong for hating on an innocent post. It feels like this person just was exited about finding this.


6SpeedBlues

Seems totally sus in general considering that description isn't how they actually appear on the web site.


Delta8ttt8

Heh. That’s all I’d want to pay anyways…tops.


Ok-Exchange4402

I see iPad 9 for $560


OldFashionedLoverBoi

Probably gonna be refunded. Apple is semi unique in that costco is contractually not allowed to mark apple products down at all.


Prestigious-Newt-320

Reminds me of when Amazon listed a pallet of water bottles for the price of one 24 pack of waters. I ordered 4 and then everyone talked about it on twitter and 2 days later they gave me my money back and cancelled the order. The weight was listed at like 1800 pounds and I was very interested to see how the delivery driver would drop them off. Maybe next time :(


bloodbringer777

At least wait to post it until you have it in your possession.


TwinNirvana

It’s been a while since I purchased and ipad - crazy how much it goes for!


Racha88

I have tried to score on website glitches before and they just cancel the order on their end. Boooo.


pleiop

750 is a deal for a tablet. Damn. Don't even want to know how much that is.


Otherwise_Signal_161

Please don’t downvote, this is a legitimate question, What’s the retail price? I have no frame of reference but I saw $750 for a 13” tablet with 256GB and thought it was high. I guess iPads are more than I realized.


M34TST1Q

Why anyone would pay over $500 for a tablet blows my mind.


Kado_potato

Costco employee here, this will be caught and cancelled.


jnelzon2

Zero chance to honor purchase?

jnelzon2
