Best Buy Now Offering $200 Discount At Point Of Purchase For The BlackBerry PlayBook
BGR reported that following news that multiple retailers across North America have begun to offer discounts on Research In Motion's (NASDAQ:RIMM) BlackBerry PlayBook, Best Buy (NYSE:BBY) is now offering the best deal for the device. Many other retailers, including Staples and Office Depot are also offering a sale on the troubled tablet.
However, Best Buy is knocking $200 off of the PlayBook at the point of purchase, as opposed to offering a $100 discount and a $100 gift card like other retailers, including Best Buy Canada.
The 16GB tablet will cost $299.99, the 32GB model will cost $399.99 and the 64GB version will cost $499.99.
A spokesperson for the company confirmed the sale and said it was a limited-time sale running from now through October 8.
Research In Motion has a potential upside of 39.9% based on a current price of $21.16 and an average consensus analyst price target of $29.61.
