Didn't look like it was going to be though, but at checkout it took the £5 off.

They're starting to appear on ebay at enormous prices!

Zirax · 19-07-2009, 11:21

They are still on at PCWorld for £90 and £45!

Amazon is now charging £180 and £75. Come launch time it is only going to go one way.

Well come launch time the RRP will be £80 and £190, so it won't go up that much.

January is when it'll shoot up a bit.

I wouldn't trust them tbh. They must of sold out.

I can't see people making much money on this.

Not many people buy an OS. Just professionals/enthusiasts. Most of the general public will get it when they upgrade there computer. i can see the market being completely flooded.
And until Jan it's staying at around £70 for HP. People are going to buy them rather than of ebay.

Shortly after it RTM's I'd imagine, as per. But we still don't know exactly when that will be, end of August latest I'd say.

Epic bump!

As I posted earlier in the thread I have 3 on order from Play and 3 on order from Staples. Now having re-checked my finances closer to the time I can only afford 3 copies.

Phoned staples to cancel and they cannot find my order in their system. Not only that but they don't even have an account for me!

Useless tbh :/

I'm not very happy with the PC World website. It's crap!

It lets me log in, so my password is accepted there but as soon as I try and do anything regarding my orders and/or my account it asks for the password again. That's fine, but it won't accept it even though I know that it's 100% correct. I just used it to log in, ffs!

I can only assume that whatever they're using isn't intelligent enough to accept a 20 character password with letters, numbers and symbols at that point in the procedure.

*sigh*
