    Anyone remember how the Black Friday deals were for Sager/Clevo laptops, last year? Do you think it's better to wait until Black Friday?

    Usually the models are phased out slowly rather than dumped after launch.

    Since Sager / Clevo laptops are already sold at a tight margin, it would be rare indeed for much of a price reduction if any at a Black Friday sale.
    If you were to look over the last few years of Black Friday sales for these you would see what we are talking about. Sorry. :)

    Yeah, I saw the posts from 2013 and 2015... I figured that the trend is not much of a difference for BF, CM, etc. sales...but I thought I should ask about 2016. (2013 is ages ago! :p)

    In some ways it was a long time ago, in others not so much.
