CLEARANCE on The Sony PRS-505 at Target

ArmyWife · 10-05-2009, 04:12 PM

Target in Naples, FL is selling the PRS-505 for $196.

AnemicOak · 10-05-2009, 04:17 PM

Apparently pricing is different depending on the store.

Target in Crystal, MN (store #3) was selling it for $237 and had one left last week.

coolbreeze · 10-05-2009, 05:32 PM

Picked one up today for $196.98. They must have adjusted the price today as it was over $240 just yesterday.

Also got the lighted cover on clearance as well for $45.48.

Quite the deals!

In Arizona at Target mine was $195 and the cool lighted case was $45. Be patient. I called the morning I bought it and was quoted $237 but found it cheaper by that afternoon.

Living the dream.

Parma, Ohio - Target has 2 at $196.00, and a couple lighted covers at $45.00

I'm still seeing alot of $240s. I got my hopes up too high. Houston sucks for these deals.

geosar,
Where in Arizona did you see the bargain Sony's?

Prescott. Phone number 928-771-8400. This was last week. They were hanging on the wall in the clearance section.

I just checked two of our local Targets here in Tucson and they sold out a couple of months ago. Maybe they were more popular here. I'll call a couple more Targets tomorrow, but don't hold out much hope to find one locally. The local Borders sent them back to where ever old stock goes for them.

Thanks all--just scored a silver 505 at Target, $196+tax. (A gift for my mom--the 3rd Reader I'm gifting! Not counting to myself, of course.

)

Xerxes · 10-08-2009, 06:44 PM

I wonder would they sell the display unit. If so for how much. Might ask next time.

just scored a silver 505 in Orlando Target for $196. they had 3 in stock. i was so tempted to buy them all, but dont know 2 people who i trust would pay me $200 for them (how do you explain to a non-ereader that they're getting a $300 ereader for $200?)

i've had the K2 for a few weeks, and hate the contrast, despite using the alternate font and the mighty bright light. i'll return the K2 and keep the 505. great deal!

donslade · 10-08-2009, 10:50 PM

El Paso Far Eastside Super Target had 3 at $195 each - now only 2 since I picked one up for my daughter for Christmas. They had the cover with the light for $45. Did not check the other 3 Targets since that is the one closest to me.

I was planning to get her the 300 but this price the 505 is hard to pass up. And with the added functionality of the memory cards she will be happier.

I have a lot of people who would. My mom's co-workers for one. I suggested they wait or could get the Pocket Pro like me. I wouldn't mind a 6" actually.

I just got one last night for $196 at a Target in Los Angeles. You can call in to the electronics dept. and they can let you know if they have them in stock before you drive down.
