Apple iPad 2 prices hiked again in SA

Raise the price, just before you need to knock it down. Smart thinking and a nice way to rip people off.
 
Rand Dollar, it's feasible.

Has it really changed that much? Have other electronic goods been affected? The only other items I've seen gigantic spikes in is hard-drives and that's due to mother nature, not the exchange rate.

Prices should have gone up November then - just in time for xmas?

Old price:
R4,399
New price:
R4,999
Increase:
x1.13

Old exchange:
6.75
New exchange:
8.15
Increase:
x1.20

So I guess it's not so bad... but I still think this comes a few months before ipad3 so that the decrease in ipad2 price isnt really a decrease for core.
 
Sweet, will make it easier to flog my iPad 2 when the 3 comes out.
