The iPad pricing chaos that went down yesterday

ย 

Regular price is 2.4 million won, but there was a price error

ย 

Apparently they shipped them all out anyway

How do I always miss out on stuff like this or whatever

RIP, totally got screwed

๐Ÿฅš

The fact that they actually shipped them AND people are posting about it to flex while everyone else is dying inside is so petty lmaooooo

๐Ÿฅš

Wait they actually sent all of them out even though it's worth hundreds of millions in losses??? That's crazy

๐Ÿฅš

Pretty sure the loss added up to like 250 million won

๐Ÿฅš

Whoever's in charge of that department is gonna get absolutely destroyed

๐Ÿฅš

just saw the new iPad prices and literally gasped out loud... Apple really said let's make it unaffordable for everyone ๐Ÿ’€

๐Ÿฅš

So if it was a price error and they cancel the orders, is there a legal issue?

๐Ÿฅš

Nah

๐Ÿฅš

Unless it's a super rare case, there's no legal problem possible. In a mutual transaction, cancellation is the standard. By social standards, an obviously wrong price is mutual grounds for awareness. So Coupang shipping them all out is what's unusual. Of course when the amount is that huge, the manager gets fired.

๐Ÿฅš

But like... 256GB but 2.4M is the regular price..? That doesn't add up. Guess I'm using my iPad for life lol. Not that I use it much these days anyway

๐Ÿฅš

the audacity of Apple to call these 'affordable' tech devices is actually hilarious ngl

๐Ÿฅš

my bank account just blocked me from checking the price, it's that bad ๐Ÿ˜ญ

๐Ÿฅš

This is some next level PR management

๐Ÿฅš

Oof... RIP

๐Ÿฅš

Didn't you guys already try to cancel anyway so you wouldn't have gotten it? No point being salty about it

๐Ÿฅš

Actually there's an update โ€” cancellations went through lmao I ordered 2 and both got cancelled

๐Ÿฅš

Thanks for the laugh, at least my lunch digest better now

๐Ÿฅš

There's a story going around that they only sent out the black ones

๐Ÿฅš

Idk, some people said they actually received theirs but mine got cancelled lol

๐Ÿฅš

Might be because you ordered 2. Or they could've cut it off at some point

๐Ÿฅš

Hahahaha what a disaster

๐Ÿฅš

lmao i was about to buy one and then i saw the price tag, straight up wallet crying rn

๐Ÿฅš

honestly not even surprised anymore, every product launch is like this now

๐Ÿฅš

wait WHAT happened?? i missed the announcement, did they actually raise prices AGAIN?
