Buying an ipad pro

hubb

I am buying an ipad pro with a certain spec. Apple iPad Pro (11-inch, Wi-Fi, 256GB)  Amazon are doing a good price of  £801.20 which beats everything else.  I was thinking as shops are on shaky ground at the moment, Amazon at least have a very good returns policy if anything was wrong or is there somewhere out there that does a good voucher or cashback deal that I have missed. It's a lot of money to part with so I want to get it right.
Thanks.

Why not buy it directly from Apple?

Probably because it would cost almost £68 more I expect.

Exactly. That wouldn't be moneysaving.

What do you need the iPad to do?  Why have you decided you need an £800 iPad?

Apple hardware isn't particularly moneysaving in itself, since you pay a fortune for something with an Apple logo on it.  You can often get similar products at a cheaper price that does exactly the same job.  Occasionally not as fast but...

Just a thought.

Thank you, but with all respect, I didn't ask for alternatives, or an opinion on the product, just the best price for an ipad pro.

If you're not in a huge rush - and have a week or two - have a check on the apple refurb section every day - you might find something tempting there, but the good deals go quickly, so if you see something, don't hang about.

So they give you £100 cashback for paying monthly on 0% finance. Great, but what is the incentive for them ? If so, add 10% cashback by going through Quidco.

So,with respect. how does that qualify as a techie question? Surely you posted in the wrong forum ?

With respect the post is titled “buying an ipad pro” in a “Moneysaving expert” forum.
