Price reduction anytime soon?

[freshbuilder]

Okay So I've read on the whole Thailand Western Digital flood thing. I've read a few articles already saying that prices will go down this quarter one. I just wanna ask everyone else what they've read and how right these articles are.Is anyone already seeing an actual price drop?

Yes, prices will start to go down in Q1, which is now. Don't expect pre-flood prices before Q4 of 2012.

The manufacturers as well as the merchants will gradually lower prices and check price sensitivity at each level. As each level is saturated, the prices will be lowered another notch, along with an occasional promo sale.

for the prices, it was in september 314 lei, it rise up to 870 lei, and now after the prices went down it is 700 lei, however 700 much bigger than 314, when we shall expected 314 again, that means under 100$ for 2 TB.

During the fourth quarter of 2012 - after October 2012

Until then look for promos and special sales.
