Sold out online and I missed it, but apparently they are selling for 99$ in store as well, so if somebody want to get one and sell it to me at cost would appreciated it. :cool:

It depends who you find to help you then. I was told at ours that the price is a bundle price, meaning you have to buy other items to get the $99 price. Ours won't give on it and even matched it to the online price.

And all of a sudden, they start appearing en masse on eBay, FM and the Buy/Sell forum here. On that slickdeals thread, somebody bought 10 and cleaned out two store's inventory.

If anyone can get me one, I'll pay a fair price for your time and shipping!

Checked the local HH Gregg @ lunch. Back to regular price ($299.99 each). Saw a post on another site that this was a programing error that has been corrected. Anyone who ordered online, they will fill the order at the $99 price but cap the quality at one per customer.

The web site was updated to the correct price early this morning. Congrats to anyone who managed to take advantage of this deal.

I hope you had them scan it- Slickdealers are reporting that the posted price in store is $299, but that it is ringing up at $99 until the end of business today

Thanks for the tip to the OP. I split work as soon as I read this and snagged the last one for $99.
Looks like I may be selling the 28-135 sometime soon :)
