Moto X cyber monday sale

[JoeNM84]

Why didn't they just release a promo code for $150.00 off Moto X. With a limited number of uses. Maybe that would have caused less problems?

They probably still make money off of each one. I wonder how much it costs them to make them...

All I know is if I got up at the crack of dawn to order this thing and end up getting a "sorry we are sold out" screen when they finally open the thing up I'll have a "Hulk Smash!" moment.

That just makes too much sense!

well they probably spend the most money on US labor costs, not components

$221, but not sure if this includes labor and I'm sure it doesn't include any R&D that they are trying to recoup.

Ugh...i have a meeting that goes from 2-3:30 at work today. I just know it'll become available in that time window and then sell out

 

[taappel]

So do I go to lunch or keep hitting refresh like everyone else waiting to make an order?

I know all of you jerks are probably going to say "go to lunch" just so they'll be one less person waiting in line when the site goes live

3 Charges on my credit card and only one email confirmation for a single device! Great job motorola!

 

[Stadifer]

I'm am glad that I didn't make it all the way to the payment screen and not complete the order but still get nailed for a charge.

I stayed to hit refresh... well I should have went to eat. If it gets fixed soon I'll take a short break after I can order. Too bad I think I'll probably be hitting refresh in the car on the way home when I get off, too.

Nope, I have one from 4:30-5, so you're safe, it will definitely be during my meeting.

I did get the one I didn't want!!! 16 GB T-MO version. I was trying to get the DEV addition, but it states that they are not available anymore! What a joke!

I'll definitely hit u guys up if I get the extra ones! At this point I'm going to raise some Hell. This is totally unacceptable!
