Day Late, Dollar short.

[William L. Drylie]

Wow!! Looked Friday at hp store, 15C LE not available yet, looked tonight and already out of stock. Probably never get one, short of watching that site every half hour.

I have waited patiently for years to see that calculator run again just to buy one to replace my demised original for work. With the calculator in production again, I was not expecting to have to scramble to buy just one.....really disappointing, probably see a load of them turn up on you know what bid site at 4 times the price.

I think at this point, if there are any left, someone can have mine. This run of the 15C is a bust as far as I can see as I am not constantly watching hp shopping, and not buying anywhere else.

[Ethan Conner]

That's too bad because it appears Bach still has them at 99.99$ At least it let me add one to my shopping cart.

[Paul Gaster]

I ordered from them and got a call within the hour saying that they do not have any in stock. I need to call back tomorrow to let them know if I want to wait to see if they can get more or just cancel the order.

Sure is a bummer, hopefully though given the instant success they'll be permanently adding a non LE 15C to their scientific calculator lineup.

They were available to add to cart on the HP Home website over the weekend.

Couple of points:

1. I don't think I've seen a "LE#" (on this site anyway) over 5000, so maybe there is still another container somewhere in the supply chain.

2. If you want to make a case, it would be very easy to talk me out of my unused one at cost (I bought 2 total), because as much as I want to, I just don't like the "landscape" layout format. And if nothing else, this dislike inspired me to bring a 42s and 32sii back into current calculator circulation (and get a WP-34s) because I like that layout style a lot more.

good luck comes to those who wait(?)

The HP-15C LE is back in HP's store... for $129.99.

[Paul Gaster]

You don't understand. HP has 2 different stores: Home and also the Small and Medium Business store

The Home store is out of stock but has the $99.99 price showing.

The Small and Medium Business store is in stock with the $129.99 price showing.

[Michael de Estrada]

Actually, it's $129.00 HP 15C LE

[Jim Johnson]

Appears that the HP "Home & Home Office Store" has re-opened the HP-15C Limited Edition for orders again at $99.99. It notes "in stock".

[Namir]

I get "Out of Stock" at 4:36 am Pacific Time.

[M. Joury]

It appeared to be available for a few hours. It showed in stock at around 3:00 AM Eastern and now at 10:41 AM Eastern it is out of stock.

[NateB]

The HP Business store shows an estimated ship date of 9-25-2011. Perhaps they have more stock on the way.

The 15c LE I ordered from HP shipped from Olive Branch, MS. Looks like they are all coming from the same distribution center.

[David Hayden]

I have to believe that if the 15C LE really does sell out quickly, then HP will make a "not so limited edition." It would be free money.

It's a supply and demand issue. If HP declares, for example, that they are making 10 million HP-15C LE units, then the frenzy to buy one will die out!!

I guess you remember what happened with the HP-32SII when we heard that HP will no longer make RPN calculators. The HP-32SII sold on TAS for $200+, up from the going price of $75. When the HP-33S came along the prices for the HP-32SII went down.
