Great deals on Samsung Tab 2s.

Options
Been looking fo the wife, but at the £300 they were a few weeks ago thought tye weould be too much. Im aware they can be had for £240 on the net, however:

Walked into Currys (and I believe PC world are donig this as well - its the same company). They have them for £260 (well £258), BUT you get £50 cashback from Samsung. OK you have to pay up front, and wait for 28 days before you can claim the cashback - but still. Apparently (though not confirmed yet) Samsung are including an 8Gb SD card as well - meaning you end up with a 24Gb Tab. Currys are also offering a further £30 cashbvack via Currys if you buy a case - which they also have on offer for £20 (including a stylus).

The upshot is, provided you can pay up front and dont mind waiting for the cashback cheques (around 8 weeks later by the time you wait the 28 days they you application gets processed) - you end up with a 16Gb Tab2, a case, a stylus and an 8Gb SD card for £198.

Unless someone knows different - I think thats the best deal at present on these Tabs.

    Thought the 8gb was only for the galaxy tab 2 7 model. Plus you only have to wait 15 days before claiming the money back from samsung, but it can then take another 30 days to get the money.

  • Good to know.

    Currys told me 28 days, as you had to wait until the return period had expired which is 28 days. If its 14 day even better. Maybe that was just the Currys one - which then links to the Samsung site after you do the Currys cashback form.

    The sales assistant did say "samsung are including an 8Gb SD card", but it wasnt in the blurb on the tag - hence why Im not 100%. ther cheap enough anyway - BUT, if I dont get one Ill be going back tpo currys :) might get a free one if I kick up enough fuss.
  • Even without the SD card, £198 for the tab2, case and stylus is still the best Ive seen to date by quite a bit.
