January 20th and not a moment sooner.

There are resell agents with more expensive prices, but Amazon is the same.

On edit: my wife bought one literally three weeks ago.

Much lower price, brand new and says: "ships from and sold by Amazon", no second party vendor indicated, so, count myself as lucky...I also got the official two part magnetic attachment keyboard case, refurbished, like new for half price from a different vendor, got it today and seems perfect, fit and finish and functions great....Bless the FSM...

I repeat orders for basic medical supplies, cat food, coffee....no change.

We'll exchange gifts, but will avoid shopping for new stuff, buying from rwnj and oligarchs, concentrate on other aspects that make it a holiday.
