No BLACK DEALS ON iPhone 16 PRO ? (Rogers)

This sucks. The straight up 16 has deals but if you wanna go PRO it’s sucks to be you?

This is unbelievable. Better come a deal within 30 days because I have to upgrade TODAY.
And it’s up to the Buyer to follow the dozen of authorized Rogers retailers to watch for price drops. That sucks too.

Did you check your local Apple Store to see what deals they offered? Most Black Friday deals were incredibly disappointing this year. The bulk of everything on sale were things most people did not want.

Not a physical store. But Apple online is the basically the same, $1600 for iPhone 16 Pro 256

No deal. No special Offer for Black Friday. Only the 16 had a rebate. Selling to consumers not those wanting to step up to Pro capability.

Plus it’s on Save and return so we’re returning a 13. Even if they gave the same rebate on 16 and 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max it would’ve been better.
Instead they dissed the Pro crowd. It’s nasty.

You can always check the Apple Store to see what Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals they have on. Perhaps Rogers will offer some different or additional deals for Cyber Monday. There are other retailers, like BestBuy, Visions, Canada Computers, and more that have deals on all types of devices currently.

Yes that’s a pretty standard answer, thank you.
So I bought the iPhone 16 Pro 256 Natural
Despite not finding a deal because I had to. My time was up on the Save and Return and that was the Phone I wanted. Here’s the crux:

Now it’s our job (my job) to price check this every single day to provide Rogers proof that it was available cheaper than 1644 anytime during the 30-day free return period (not necessarily to return it but to get the price match credit).

This is something Rogers COULD DO FOR US but no that would not fit the business model. It’s not like they don’t know where the cheapest price is, of course they do, tracking such a data point is clearly in their business plan.

Does anyone have experience with this and how many times can we call in if we keep finding lower prices approaching xmas 🎄 ???
