Note 8 for $349 on ebay!

[trale]

For anyone that's been on the edge of a purchase, you might be interested in this deal that I came acros:

Samsung Galaxy Note 8 0 16GB Tablet White | eBay

Personally I'm not jumping yet - waiting for upcoming announcements of other 8" tablets, but this price drop is surely a good sign of things to come. =)

I wouldn't go that far yet. A better sign would be for major retailers to drop price as well. That said, I had mentioned this in the Slickdeals thread, but if I didn't have a bunch of Best Buy gift certificates and gift cards, I would probably have jumped on this deal for sure.

Ultimately, I was happy with my $379.99 price match with Best Buy. After having the tablet for two (2) weeks (I'm past the 15 day return period), I don't regret not exhibiting more patience.

That said, if Samsung released a 32gb version mid-June w/ all the other "new colors" being rumored, I might just be a little upset...LOL.

For those that have been holding off, hoping for a better price, Tiger Direct has refurbished ones for $359.96
Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 Tablet - Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, Quad-Core 1.6GHz Processor, 8 Touchscreen, 16GB Storage, WiFi, Dual Webcams, S Pen, White (GT-N5110ZWYXAR) Includes $25 Google P (Refurbished) at TigerDirect.com

And, what I think is an even better deal, is some people at SlickDeals have been able to get 20% off through Office Max, in addition to a price match from ebay.

Here's the last post from the Slickdeals thread mentioning it:

Bought mine for $320 plus tax at OfficeMax today using the 20% off coupon. Came out to about $344 after taxes so not bad. Didn't see any promotions on the $25 Google Play credit though

this is the price the tablet should be selling for in the first place IMO

Agreed. FWIW, I just picked one up for $349 at Staples. The price attracted me. I've been wanting one of the Note's for the stylus use.

How did you get that price? Did you use price match?
I just checked the site and it's 399

Damn, patience truly is a virtue. I guess I can't complain, considering I have had it 5 months already.
