looks like staples has restocked the Acer Aspire AST690-2 DT PC Desktop (http://www.staples.ca/ENG/Catalog/cat_sku.asp?webid=707903&catIds=%2C&MOOM=1&affixedcode=WW), online, at least when i tried using montreal postal code.

at the price of $147.00, this desktop computer is a crazy bargain. maybe not as good as the recent SDM $99 computer that no one could find, but if u have a $20 or $30 off 150 coupon code, it can be urs for $120 or $130!

Guess you're still new with Staples deal... Staples are known to have stock error EVERY Saturday night (Sunday morning) where out of stock items can be ordered. After you order, expect an email saying its a stock error shortly.

This desktop will NOT be restocked online. It maybe restocked in store (moved from one to another) but thats about it.

Generally speaking, you will get the Email Monday morning. Sometime you get it Sunday. This deal was posted a while ago and i believe stock was cleared out after the $99 deal was posted too (i love that deal since i was able to probably grab the only one in GVR).:cheesygri

The only stock left = probably in unpopulated Staples.

It is probably the Sat. night (creeping into Sunday AM) phantom stock. If you put 999 of these in your cart, it still let's you add it to your cart, so I wouldn't get my hopes up for actually receiving one of these.
