Hi
Does anyone know where I can get these THIS WEEK?
Qty. 15
C7972A. LTO2 HP Ultrium Data Cartridges
I've tried all the usual suspects in the UK
[XMA, Orion, MicroP]
They say:
1] "5 days' lead-time sir"
2] "We can do Maxell or Blah Blah today, but not HP 'brand'
Don't get mad, get naked
Mike
P.S. This thread has been moved from General to Tape Libraries and Drives. - Hp forum Moderator

This may be a stupid question, but can't you go directly to HP? You must have a marketing rep somewhere that you could talk to.

You're right :)
Maybe USA is different, but UK plebs R US go through a chain
The highest up the chain we can get don't have stocks
No one seems to be 'Direct with HP' until you're up there with Morse & CSC
Robert-Jan:
Will do - thanks

Re: LTO 2 tapes: Where can I buy 'em? [UK or Europe]
Thanks for the link - useful for a really rainy day
Not THAT desperate though
The reason?
HP Store price ??103.19
That is our usual buy price plus an additional 55% !!

Having no basis for comparison and being "pound-challenged" anyway, I had no idea whether that was a good price or not. Knowing HP, I kind of doubted it though.

Re: LTO 2 tapes: Where can I buy 'em? [UK or Europe]
I'm pound-challenged too, but that price doesn't look so bad: Microwarehouse sells C7921A (LTO1) for US$54.95, and C7922A (LTO2) for $119.95. Their UK site doesn't show C7922A, but has C7921A for 59.99 pounds. Are you sure about your specification?

Re: LTO 2 tapes: Where can I buy 'em? [UK or Europe]
Pete's link above shows this:
C7972A. hp ultrium2 400Gb ??103.19
We can buy non-hp brands for ??66.25
The hp brand is therefore 55% more than non-hp

Re: LTO 2 tapes: Where can I buy 'em? [UK or Europe]
Off brands are cheaper than genuine HP everywhere. Your spec was for the HP product, and you seemed to indicate that "Maxell or Blah Blah" was not acceptable. I'm confused. (Not an abnormal state for me). ;)
