New iPad Pro Both 11” $699+ & 12.9” $899+ Micro Center

$699.00

I was looking for a deal on the New iPad Pro. I found a few at Micro Center. They have between $50-$150 off several iPad models. Some deals are in store only. My store in Kansas City had a lot of stock. To make the deal a little better I called ABT and had them price match for free shipping and no tax to Missouri. I don't think they had time to verify I had a local Micro Center, so that might be good option for others.

I guess it's a good deal for those that can't order from BH or Adorama without paying tax. I think this would come out to be a bit cheaper?

Still feel good about that $499 for the 10.5 earlier this year although these new ones do look nice.

These are very good deals but unfortunately are not available to people without a Microcenter nearby (which is probably most people). Adorama wouldn't price match this would they? BTW the title makes it sound like the the 12.9" also starts at $699, which would be incredible, but it's actually starting st $899. Still a good deal compared to everywhere else

I don't post a lot and couldn't find a post on BH or Adorama, but BH is $40-$60 off depending on the model, this is $50-$150 off. Or are you referring only to the older Pro models?

Some were available to ship, but there were a few that were not. I updated the post based on your feedback. I would think the ABT match would work with anyone, even if you don't have a Micro Center close. I'm amazed at how quick and easy they price match. Ultimately, I think it was the better deal for me because no tax or shipping.

It may be worth it a bit if you have the 5% Off Purchases at Micro Center with Micro Center Insider Credit Card.

I think he is referring to no tax for most people outside out NJ/NY when buying from BH. So on top of the $40-$60 off of MSRP, there are extra savings with no tax. Can come out to be same for some people who do have to pay tax for Microcenter.

I just chatted with Adorama agent and they don't offer price match to Apple products right now.

For states that don't collect tax, you have the regular discount plus the amount saved by not paying tax. So if sales tax is about 8% like in my state, that's an additional $60ish off on top of the $50 off a $799 11" Pro model.

I understand that, that is why I ordered from ABT. It's just nice to have an authorized dealer go low, that way you hopefully price match to whoever you want. I like ABT because they even offer price protection after you buy. I think Illinois is the only state for them to collect, but I could be wrong.

They're based in IL, so yeah. I think MacMall is too.
