Will OVH have Black Friday deals again this year?
Given the current market, I feel like OVH’s KS-LE-B and KS-LE-E are really good value for money.
However, buying one from someone else usually comes with a markup. Since Black Friday is only a few months away, I’m thinking about waiting and trying to get one directly from OVH during the sale.
That said, I’ve seen some people speculate that OVH might not offer similar deals this year, or that prices could even go up.
What do you guys think? Do you expect OVH to have another Black Friday promotion this year, especially for the KS-LE series?

They'll have some form of black friday sales for sure, but for KS-LE-B especially, nobody knows. If they do offer LE-B again, buying via the API is probably going to be the only way to get one, like in 2025.
i think a lot of us wonder if deals are worth the effort waiting or checking or monitoring... last LE deals weren't as surprising as Mystery SKUs. In the meantime i'll try to feed more and make the most of my laying hens
maybe no installation fees black friday
Won't be the same this year. Either the spec or price.
If you find the immediate usage, pay more and get it now from somebody. If you just want to idle, wait until Black Friday
Hi I hear word deels
I say yes
I was baking baguettes with Octave over the weekend, he said no BF deals this year.
Sorry!
Octave said yes
Is it only for new users or everyone?
Yes. They will increase price by 135% and then will make 35% recurring discount. Enjoy.
at least we got like 5.5% actual off (I'm asian)
135% - 35% = 100% on top of current pricing. Even if you Asian, you will pay 100% more then it is now.
That's not how maths work
Teach me, please.
More like BYO ram and 2TB spinning rust drives
base price from 2025: $10
increase by 135% (as you say):
base price in 2026: $23.5
35% recurring discount (as you say) based on new base price:
65% of $23.5 = $15.275
which would be an increase of about close to 53% compared to 2025 base price.
But maybe I interpret the meaning of "increase by" differently than you or e.g. @fredo1664
I understood just like you. The other possible interpretation was $10 * 1.35 * 0.65.
Given the stock shortage, I doubt they’ll make a significant offers, just waiving the setup fee and raising prices in April or September.
They migh have some old stock.
