Kindle Meh- is it so bad it's MUH?

wishlish had a quick thing to say said Mon, Jul 20th 2015 at 9:55am ET

I left the house at 8. Two hours later, the sales count is still at 5.

Is this in the running for worst Meh deal ever? Just curious.

They have now sold 8! PARTY!!!!

I would love to pick one of these up, but the price point is just too high for me. I have a birthday in a few weeks, perhaps Irk and Glen can pool their money and buy one for me.

I think the last worst Meh deal was the Powerbeats2 earbuds, which sold only 51 units and brought in only $7813. There's still over 12 hours left on this deal, so it's possible for more of these Kindles to sell (maybe 8 more?), but even if 16 sell then that's only $4560.

There's always the $450 computer that only sold 10 units. Not that it was an outright rotten deal, but not good enough for Meh users to have as their main PC and not cheap enough to be a impulse buy just to mess around with either.

- @Starblind Just to add insult to injury, that day also featured a Totally Not Rigged Games of Chance video. Possibly the most meh day so far.

- @DrunkCat Drunk would seem an understatement. I'd wager you Hyram wins that poll at least 70-30.

Also one of the rare days in which the top buying state wasn't Cali or Texas
