Supposedly, our buyer at Staples is trying hard to get some for our chain. I talked to him the other day, he said Staples USA was able to secure a lot, but he wasn't sure at that point if Staples Canada would be able to get any.

I'm surprised at the size of rebate HP is giving the stores. My manager looked up our cost on it and, after HP's rebate, we're actually making a surprising amount of money on both capacities. I would imagine that, with the limited quantity and high demand, chains are going to need to sacrifice at least some of that margin to secure stock.
