Desktop PC's, PSP Go, Nintendo Dsi, Benq Monitors, Lacie 1TB drive, ipod touch and more. No information as yet to any quantities.

Many of us have seen this kind of sale before. I don't personally recall one from shopping square though. It will be interesting to see how they handle it.

Without any other information it's probably best to assume low quantities of really good items, high quantities of filler or marginal bargains. Also best to assume your chances of getting a good item are very low. This is definitely not everyone's cup of tea.

Mind you basing your expectations on how other sites have handled this kind of sale, is not necessarily fair to Shopping Square. Perhaps some reps would like to comment?

Update:

IBM NetVista Desktop PC (with Windows XP Professional) From $9
Genuine Nintendo Wii Nunchuck $9
PSP Go $249
Nintendo Dsi $199
Benq G2420HD 24" Monitor ?
Lacie 1TB external Hard Drive ?
iPod Touch 8GB 3rd Gen $178

More items to come in the following days. (Thanks to danilochan!)

    I hope this turns out better than CotD's pressure cooker.

    What a scam that was.

    • Koonit on 19/10/2009 - 13:10

      +1 to that Lol
      I hate COTD after that. Get a bloody server that can handle a few thousand people FGS!

  • Koonit on 19/10/2009 - 13:12

    There's no mention of what the items are, or what the prices may be..

    Not going to generate the desired amount of interest without some idea of what's going to be on special.

    • Shadowsfury on 19/10/2009 - 13:31

      Which is a good thing for us who know about it and it turns out to be good stuff.

    • crumble on 19/10/2009 - 13:32

      Agreed. One of the main reasons I posted it was to try and get the reps on the site to come clean on what's happening now. Right now the COTD sales look better because they at least have some items described up front with quantities and price. Hopefully the rep (danilochan I think) will see that and at least do the same. Flush him out of the woods so to speak. I think it's in their best interests.

      If they want to bargain community to swarm, now's the time, it won't make the frontpage here otherwise and generate the traffic they are hoping for.

        Hi everyone,
        Some items already updated in the newsletter. Please feel free give us comments.

        We will update some more items tomorrow.

  • furythree on 19/10/2009 - 20:40

    i really want that monitor as long as its under $200…b-a-r-g-a-i-n otherwise not really interested. and i own every type of apple product already lol. so over apple. no that big of a deal anymore

    and the $9 nunchuck is just "lol". id like to meet someone who gets excited over a nunchuck. a controller combo wudve been better

  • aussman on 19/10/2009 - 22:48

    $9 for a pc is pretty good

    • Koonit on 20/10/2009 - 09:23

      Pretty good? It's absurd!

    • [Deactivated] on 20/10/2009 - 13:27

      That's from $9, not $9.

      I'm going to guess the config that's $9 has no HDD, optical, RAM and/or CPU… or something. Then you pay a fairly normal price if you want all the parts.

      I'm a cynic, what can I say. I've never trusted anything that starts a price with from.

        For sure, all IBM PC are complete system with Keyboard, Mouse and Windows XP OS Lic. in working condition, even the $9 machine :)

        • furythree on 21/10/2009 - 17:20

          let me guess its running a pentium 3 with 1gb of hdd space and 32mb of ram

          edit actually wait i can see a pentium 4 sticker on that picture

        • danilochan on 29/10/2009 - 11:45

          CORRECTION: The IBM PC are stand alone full working Desktop System with Windows XP Pro OS Lic. WITHOUT Monitor, Keyboard, Mouse and other accessories (as the listing Packing information stated in ShoppingSquare.com.au)

          I appologise for the mistake in the previous post here.

  • aussman on 20/10/2009 - 10:36

    will probably be archaic though

  • danilochan on 20/10/2009 - 20:22

    Some more items added in the Hot Hour Preview.

  • furythree on 21/10/2009 - 17:20

    tell us the price of the monitor!!!

    • pongie on 22/10/2009 - 14:17

      $199

  • dman801 on 22/10/2009 - 21:04

    • danilochan on 22/10/2009 - 23:30
