Default Best Buy Listing iPAQ 4705 For $475 -- But It's Sold Out

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage...04&type=product

Best Buy has a great price on the iPAQ 4705 -- it's being listed for $499, minus a $25 rebate for $474. 8O



However, it's showing "Sold Out", and somehow I have a feeling that the price will go up before their stock replenishes. If you're successful getting the 4705 for that price, let us know. 8)

Update: Readers have called Best Buy, and the price is apparently legit. Surprising, but hey... :mrgreen:

The link doesn't work for me and I couldn't find 4705 when I tried to search for it. I did find a 3715 for 499 though, and a $25 dollar rebate incidently. They messed up.

Thats what I get for listening to store employees in thier PDA dept. They said they won't be carrying it and that was last Thursday. Oh well the price must wrong and they most likely won't honor it. I did get mine ordered at www.pcconnection.com and they still have stock. Mine will be here tomorrow. :mrgreen:

Was either a typo on BB's part or a mis-read on your part... it's the 3715 for $474 (499-25).

No, it was really showing the 4705. Obviously a mistake on their part, but it was up all last night and this morning.

I called the sales rep. He checked all local B&M stores, none available but the 25% sale will go until the end of this week. The price is totally ligit. Just open an account and put this in the wishlist. You will be notified as soon as it becomes available..Hopefully this week...

I called this morning too. No backorder, but the price is correct, not a typo or system mistake.

The rx3715 price is correct too, with $25 off.

Crazy guy rant here, but before you drop a ton of money into Best Buy's pockets, consider reading about my recent experience trying to use my extended waranty on a Toshiba Laptop. It took them ~3 months to get it back to me in a working state after denying the problem for the 1st 2.
