    phoned my local tescos in plymouth and they said it was £219
  • My wife just bought 2 A150s @£129 each at Crieff Road store in Perth. Had to ask at the electrical desk, also had the A110 @£99. Plenty left :T
  • You have to get them to scan them in store -still on the shelf at £229 :confused:

    I found a dark blue 110x, but it scanned at £209 - the white and pink ones were out of stock - I guess these were the cheap ones - no sign of 150's in my local store.

    Does anyone know of any stores in the Merseyside area that still have the A150's?

    None in Bromborough, Liverpool One or Bidston :-(

    the 110 models are £209 you need the 150 model at £99 and £130!
    Also on hotukdeals it showing the Asus EEpc 904HD model as being £114.51
    And possibly someone commenting on a Dell netbook being a similar price?

    Not quite right.

    A110 8gb SSD is the one at £99.
    A110 16gb (8 SSD + 8 SDHC) is still at £209.
    A150 120gb HDD is £129.

    I deserve to go straight to hell for what I just did.
    Bought 2*£129 @ Tesco.
    Sold 2*£141 @ CEX :money: (could have had £176 store credit!)

    Was going to sell them on ebay, but it looks like new sealed A150 120gb's go for in the region of £155 atm (+10 for postage).
    Factor in the ebay fees, the paypal fees, the risk of a bad buyer causing trouble, or sh-citylink damaging the parcel - I figured an immediate (but slightly lower) profit was a better bet.

    The staff dealing with me were very helpful; infact they were very interested too; especially when I had to provide the proof of purchase!
    One of them was already planning how many he would need to trade to have enough cash & store credit to buy a Wii :)

    well i got to admit I still haven't managed to get one, and probably won't, and am at work right now and tomorrow! Although I guess I am able to browse the boards ;)
