BB's inventory checker is saying a couple stores nearby have them. Not sure if I'm willing to waste my time if the system is wrong.

Anyone have luck with the inventory checker?

Or a few employees helped themselves to it first but havent purchased them yet. Hence why they still show in inventory until they pay for them before they go home after their shift

They can't purchase them during work, but only after, so they are stashing them away..obviously the inventory does not change...

I rather punch them.

P.S. Just called up a place in Manhattan, just went to stock... the guy on phone was laughing saying no, nothing came in.

Just got a call back from Boston.. no, we only got 16 in stock, all sold out in 5 mins.... really? people were lining up hoping for a miracle to drop from the sky... and out of no where, they knew to ask for one at once? all gone in 5 minutes? wow...

I'll get myself an iPad 3 lol
