haha steep discounts :D this is hilarious. Looks like boomers have not seen some true discounts. These discounts are pathetic. I wouldn't even call them a discount, just some price action, but nothing really to see.
I'm really starting to lose faith in MR. Best Buy has had these watch prices for 2 weeks. If I cannot trust a simple story like this, what else can I not trust?

Trust no one. ;) Best Buy had Ultra 2 for $699 a few weeks ago.
