I didn't know it was temporary. I know of limited offers and stuff but a whole month doesn't really scream "temporary". This pricecut was hailed as the savior and haven't seen anyone once mentioning that it will just last a month and go back up again.

So you thought that it wasn't temporary even though you had to use a discount code for some retailers?

The $450 version was freely available on Amazon without any need for codes.

Amazon started with the whole code thing. By putting "1" or something in the box and then it dropped to $450.
