@davidrevoy thanks so much for this video and blog entry you did. Ever since you posted about how you got to try and enjoy this device I think of buying one too. Now I am waiting for your discount code to get valid

@TadayoshiFirefox Thanks! Oh yes, I saw the 'Black Friday' offer ends in November and the promocode start the 24 (from top of brain). I emailed them yesterday to ask if the offers could both work together, and they replied yes.

@davidrevoy

Alas! That's not true.
If you enter the second code, the first one dissapears. At least in the German shop.

"Hinweis: Es kann jeweils nur ein Gutschein verwendet werden."
("Note: Only one voucher can be used at a time.")

@Grutjes @davidrevoy we got two codes? Yesterday I tried the code and it deducted the 15 euro from the already discounted price. But the stock of the tablets seems to be exceptionally empty the German store page tells me !4 weeks delivery!
So cheers while we wait

@TadayoshiFirefox Hey, ok, so same situation than in France about the low stock of items. I guess now it is Europe-wide.

About the code; still only one code for the -15€/$ , the other promotion we talk is the black Friday, not a promotion specific of yesterday only but it was on a long duration even when I posted the video. I think it ends until roughly end November as far as I remember.

It's a bit different in every country until when the BF deal is running. You can check them by changing your country in the upper right. As a Dutch person I have to anyway, as there is no Dutch website. Fortunately both the Irish, German and Irish sites will deliver to the Netherlands.

It may be worth your while to check as every country has a slightly different deal. I found the French best, but unfortunately my virusscanner blocked payment there because of...

@davidrevoy @TadayoshiFirefox

...missing safety certifications.

I must say, I hope the equipment is better than their websites. Almost no explanation about some of the products (which extra nib?), and if you check the questions people ask you see many unanswered after months, or even wrongly answered.

But well, I make mistakes too :)

@Grutjes @TadayoshiFirefox Oh yes, and the XPPen website is full of mistakes. Translators and marketing poeple had no idea what they were writing about color profiles and color space. In big: 159% sRGB and then 99% sRGB. (Real spec I guess compared to what I roughtly measured here: 99% AdobeRGB and 159% sRGB)

Inside the paragraph they even write a "wide gamut 99%sRGB" hilarious.
Also: marketing photo using the keyboard shortcut at 90° or product unconnected, fun

@davidrevoy @TadayoshiFirefox

For anyone still doubting:

- I have no idea when they will deliver. They say within 3 days, but I have not heard from them after 5. Their communication is problematic.

- This code will give you a bigger discount, only in the next 22 hours:

And I really hate this. 100 dollars less as what I bought it for just a few days ago:

I don't think I'll buy from them again.

@Grutjes @davidrevoy time to make use of the return policy I have I guess. Internet bought goods can be returned without a reason within 14 days of delivery. That price drop is a huge loss of trust. Might have never found out about this if this wasn't posted.

@TadayoshiFirefox @davidrevoy

I mailed them with the question to skip the hassle and send me back $102. We'll see what happens next.

I can't send anything back as nothing is delevired yet. Didn't get a proper VAT invoice either...

@Grutjes @davidrevoy I saw a button to ask for a return bellow the recipe site I screenshotted but yea that way of behaviour is also good. Asking them or I just return it if they don't
