It's already Fall

Kindle doesn't show in Best Buy or Staples web pages. Anybody from southern Arizona (Tucson) knows if Kindle is available in stores there?

Thanks

Here's what the website says......apparently you have to go to a physical store to buy.

Amazon Kindle — now at Best Buy stores

Pick up the Amazon Kindle at a Best Buy store near you. Although the Kindle is not available for purchase on BestBuy.com, you can shop for Kindle accessories. Find a store ›

I guess it makes sense. If you want to mailorder it then get it from Amazon directly.

Unless you live south of the border. That's what I like from Best Buy, I can order online and later pickup my stuff in the store.

And Best Buy sells the nook online, even if it can be ordered from B&N.

P.S. Thanks to grandma for the quick answer. I could swear that yesterday BB site didn't show that message. :-)

Fastest fingers in the west!

Ordering from Amazon online will give you superior CS....no hassle return if you don't like it, no restocking fee, instant credit for accidentally bought books, instant "call back" service", and a great start up page.....where you can download the user manual in pdf if you like.

Check out a Target, that's where I picked mine up.

I'm sure they are!

I could order from Amazon but I don't want to pay $50-$60 between S&H and taxes. Moreover, I don't want to find that Amazon sent the kindle by mail, because then it will be "lost" by the Mexican post service. No, I don't want that if I can just cross the border and drive to Tucson. But, I don't want to drive to Tucson and find no kindle there. Well, who said life is easy?

Thanks for the link.

Heres a list of the stores in Tucson.

Click on the "weekly ad" of the one you want to go to, then on the 'contact info" button, and you'll get a phone number.

A quick call would let you know if they have them and I'll bet they'd hold one for you? Good luck.

PS......you can also click right undereath the store where it says "hours" and it will show a phone number.......
