Ipad 2 Flying Off The Shelves In The Netherlands Sold Out In The Hague

This above is one of Europe’s oldest shopping streets in the Hague, Netherlands. Just look at those crowds – queuing is hardly possible. Rough estimate: About 200 people. Our reader Olaf noticed that iPad 2 was sold out at all Apple resellers in the Hague minutes before 5pm local time. Apple doesn’t operate its own stores in the country, leaving would-be iPad 2 buyers in the Netherland’s third largest city empty-handed.

Not that we haven’t been expecting this.

Continuous iPad shortages around the world and Apple’s preference towards stocking own retail stores first come at the expense of authorized resellers.
