Tablo Dual Lite for $99!

A little screwier, on tablotv stores pages, the old 4-tuner model costs $20 more than the new Quad?! Maybe there always has been this price discrepancy, I hadn’t noticed.
Seems odd one would pay more for an older dated model, then again at least it’s readily available. (I do understand there are many here using the 4-tuner, there’s nothing wrong with it… other than a newer modern model came along for $20 less.)

Has nothing to do with tariffs, whatsoever. The Dual Lite is $99 ($39 off) and the 4-Tuner (pre-Quad) is at $199, which is $20 less than on the Tablo site. This is Amazon Prime, so it’s either Amazon or Nuvyyo that’s behind the price spike. Amazon’s Tablo store:

They also have a refurbed 4-Tuner for $158, a little more that what you’d normally find it for on Tablo’s own site.

I haven’t seen an actual list of affected products. I have seen other posts that tablo ships via ocean from China. I have no idea if any go through U.S. harbors. But shipment takes around 30-days. This wouldn’t affect Canadian prices unless the tariff details apply to reshipment.

US increases tariffs on US$200 billion worth of Chinese goods (List 3) from 10 percent to 25 percent, as the US and China fail to reach a deal following the end of the first day of the eleventh round of high-level trade talks.

The tariff increase will be effective from May 10, 2019 at 12:01 am (EST), with goods leaving from China to the US before midnight still taxed at the previous 10 percent rate. (See full notice here).

Best Buy is back at it again. Don’t know how long the Amazon sale will go, but Best Buy’s sale price is good for the whole week.

Not as exciting as to price point, but they are still selling the (non-Quad) 4-tuner for $199:

Forty Dollars off again, this time at Amazon.

Still several days away from Amazon Prime days, this is a nice pre-curser and (again), makes a great gift for those of us who are already set.

And Best Buy just matched it (again!):

[disclaimer: Amazon’s ad implies “with … Automatic Commercial Skip” included while it’s an added charge.]

Tablo Quad still doesn’t seem to make the discount deals, at least not yet :frowning: …what’s up with that?!?

Amazon has it for the same price, delivery this afternoon.
