Has anyone managed to buy at this price? I dropped by a few times over the past week but without any success.

Ha!

Based on my experience, no. Tradepac sells so fast that they OOS pretty much most of the time. Just like how 520 series sold out quickly months back

so many freelance sys buiilders buy from them.
These kind of good deals, builders surely buy a few to keep stock.

I think the last time I was there, I noticed they don't have stock for this SSD on their shelf where they keep all the SSD. Considering that this is one of the cheapest and reliable SSD out there in the market, most people building a rig there will def get that if they want a good SSD. My experience with them is so far still positive. ;)

I have gone to TradePac every 5 days to check for INTEL SSDs in the last 2 months until the Indian guy standing at the glass counter see me walking towards the shop every-time smile and tell me "NO STOCK"..:(

The cheapest INTEL SSDs pricing besides TradePac now is "SUPRISE, SURPRISE" Cybermind but must pay cash as according to Sim Lim Square price lists. But even the shop cheapest pricing compare to TradePac is still very OVER-PRICED..

But I still think that TradePac is for those who really knows their stuff and hardware and what they are buying. But so far, my feedback about TradePac is positive too. Of course not everything in the shop is cheaper than others too.

Singapore is a very small consumer market, so most do not need to cut their price to sell.

Can't you just pre-order from them rather than checking the store every 5 days? Funny why list the price when you don't carry any stock.

While this is true, we do have a choice of buying from abroad. Considering the size and weight of SSD, it is not difficult for people to ship in. RMA is not difficult too, even if it means that you have to send it back to manufacturer. The savings in some cases can be substantial. ;)

Unless you're buying Intel which comes with international warranty :)

I visit Sim Lim Square every 5-7 days for some updates and buying of stuff or research. So no harm trying every time I go there lor....:D

But when work starts, it will not be every 5-7 days anymore...:)
