Demand for the iPad 2 far outweighed stock levels when it first saw light of day, and while Apple’s own online store quoted 4-5 week delivery times, that has since been reduced to 2-3 weeks. This has no doubt pleased those that have been waiting for their tablet to arrive.
However there are other outlets to purchase the touchscreen slate, one being Best Buy. While rumors recently suspected a “blacklisting” for the retailers shipment of any more iPad 2′s over a dispute with sales, a leaked memo shows that this may well not be the case.
As Apple Insider commented, Best Buy became one of the main outlet partners for the first and second gen iPad.
Now an internal memo has leaked Dell vostro 1510 battery,Dell xps m1330 battery information about the retailers plans for a promotional exercise for the iPad 2 starting on April 17. Reservation systems have been disabled but will be fired back up and continue for at least a week once the promotional period has stopped. According to a report by Engadget, the leaked internal memo said, “the iPad 2 will be featured on the front cover of the April 17 ad and because of this, the reserve order system will be turned back on on Sunday.”
As Best Buy state any reserve orders will take priority once the stores receive their shipments. The memo also stated, “the reserve order system will be turned on for the entire week of the ad, possibly longer.” There is instruction to employees not to hold units for customers for periods longer than 48 hours.
Stores are informed that Best Buy’s “Corporate Support Teams” are fully aware that sales demand is highly likely to exceed outlets stock levels. Therefore it is imperative that current reservations and new reservations are dealt with effectively to ensure satisfactory customer care.
Retail outlets are warned not to send buyers to other stores that may be showing stock, as these units are likely reserved, any store pick up Hp nc8430 battery,Hp pavilion dv6000 batteryfacilities will stay unavailable. Employees however will be able to purchase an iPad 2.
Josh Ong from AppleInsider is reporting that a leaked internal memo indicates that Best Buy is planning a promotion push for the iPad 2. It is also thought the retailer will restart taking reserve orders for the device for at least a week after the sales promotion.
The memo which was originally leaked by Engadget states the promotion will begin on April 17, and ordering system for reserving the iPad 2 will also be switched back on. It is thought that some stores will have a minimum of three iPad 2s.
People who have an iPad 2 already reserved still get priority over any iPad 2 stocks that the company has, and as soon as any remaining stock has sold the stores will begin taking reserve orders for the tablet PC. The memo states that reserved units will not be held for longer than 48 hours and also staff at Best Buy are now allowed to buy an iPad 2.
