i was about to buy a mobile but its price increased online so thought of waiting for some more days but to my dismay in some portals the price increased & in some where it was cheaper became 'out of stock'. [in flipkart the price reduced once after increasing more than a thousand but due to my card problems couldn't buy then]

My question is should i go ahead with my purchase anyway now or will the new stocks will be more costly taking into account the current monetary scenario where rupee is falling against dollar?

Rupee has fallen to the lower limit, hence now the latest stock will be priced higher....I think it wud be better to wait a month or two as by then rupee value wud have risen(RBI is taking some strict measures to make rupee stronger).
