Doubt it will happen anytime soon. This one is on sale because Apple doesn't use lightning any longer on its phones. The "android " one is the iOS one now also.

Pretty much can't pass it up at this price, although that means I have to set foot into a Costco at Christmas time...

Quote from ShawnyMcKnight :
This deal went around with a PSN $25 gift card for $50, is this just for the backbone or did the deal drop another $20... because $30 for a $25 gift card and a backbone sounds like a no brainer to me.
It's the backbone for $30 and also the $25 PS credit. So you essentially get the backbone for $5. Yes an absolute no-brainer :-)

Just bought it for $50 for my nephew Xmas gift. Do I want to go back inside hoping it's now $30 for price adjustment???
Was at Costco. They won't price adjust. Said need to return online bc Costco.com is separate from Costco. And purchase store instore. Problem was they were sold out.

Looks like I'll be returning this. Don't feel $50 is good enough now.

Popped into a local Costco to see if this was available; no go and place was crazy. Checked Instacart and I had $20 off Costco; along with membership discount and scheduling shipping for tomorrow, I got it for under $25 including a decent tip. We'll see if it actually ships and whether it has the code but just a heads up to anyone eyeing this deal.

the person just didn't want to help you, they are absolutely incorrect. Load up costco.com on your phone and login, go to orders and click on your order and theres a return barcode there. It tells you that you can return at ANY costco warehouse. They don't do manager price adjustments as these were just for the remaining stock at certain costcos, that is the only thing correct.

OOS around Orange County, CA. Checked inventories at other Costcos, no luck. Hope this helps for others who live in Orange County. I did purchase it online for $54 with tax. I will wait and see if the price drops online or return at a later time.

For anyone who bought it online, Costco won't price match clearance items or items in store. You can return it anytime at a Costco. There is no expiration date said by them, but to be on the safe side 90 days for most items.
