    Great deal. Thank you OP.

    Thanks OP.

    $145 at PC Case Gear https://www.pccasegear.com/products/32850/corsair-vengeance-… which makes this deal $38 cheaper even with the tanked $AUD vs $USD value which is a bargain. Funny how you don't see these sort of deals locally.

      I'm guessing that our 23 million possible customers vs 310 million has something to do with it.

        I never understood that argument.

        Let's say it cost a company $10 to make a product.

        Now they can choose to sell the product for any price over $10 to make a profit. If market A is bigger than market B you still can't sell below $10 without going out of business. If anything, you could add a few cents to the bigger market to subsidise the cost to the smaller market. As for freight, these types of things are usually made in countries that are closer to us anyway so shipping should be cheaper. The only thing going on that I can see is 'straya tax again. Any company that's clever enough to make electronics should be lever enough to float a business model that delivers the same product at the same price to everyone.

        (just musing)

          You sir, need to read a bit more on fixed and variable costs and a few other things…

        • +2

          @educalifa:

          Maybe, but at the end of it all the thing costs X amount to make. If you can explain to me how ram costs less to build in China (or wherever) to sell in the U.S. than it does to sell in Australia then I'm all ears. :)

          @EightImmortals:

          Because the cost of an item is only one factor in determining selling price.

          Haven't you noticed that most things cost more in Australia than in comparable developed countries? It's because we're a traditionally isolated market that is accustomed to and has generally accepted paying more. The manufacturers/importers/distributers/retailers inflate our prices because they'd like to keep making high profit margins off us.

        • @bobjane:

          Oh yeah I understand that. I was looking for a proper reason though. :)

          @EightImmortals:

          Money is the only reason for most things. Pretty sure that makes it proper by default. :p

        • It's like Red Rooster and Maccas.. You'll have 20 customers in Maccas, compared to 1 in Red Rooster. You still have to pay a lease for the shop front, wages, electricity/gas/insurance etc. And then if you are maccas, it's obvious that you can then negotiate better prices at your supplier level.. You need 10000 bags of frozen chips, so it keeps your supplier happy knowing that they can invest in infrastructure to keep those 10000 bags coming, so you reduce your selling price. Yes, your profit margin goes down but comparing it to say, 100 bags of chips from red rooster, you still have to outlay cash to provide a product.

        • GST, plus pricing is set differently in each country based on wages of that country.

  • Ah didn't read OP properly. Its DDR4. not DDR3.

  • how do returns work with amazon? do you have to post it back to the states? doesnt that cost a fortune?

    • +1

      In general DOA is reimbursed by Amazon. I had to ship a 50kg box back to Amazon due to it DOA and they reimbursed the DHL shipping fees (and a full refund of course). It might not be straightforward though as you need to speak to a rep, and there are clueless Amazon reps.

    Thanks OP, just bought with the PNY 120gb ssd deal and saw an i5 6500 for the price of a 6400 here that i was looking at.
    fingers crossed no warranty issues..

  • Exactly what I was looking for thanks OP

  • I get an error saying "Some of the items in your order cannot be shipped to the selected address. Please select a new address to see your estimated order total." Anyone know how to get by this?

    • is it for this deal? I added a few other things but somethings from amazon dont ship to australia so you'll get that error.
      just check what else you're trying to order.
      if its just this i dunno…worked fine for me with my AU address

    That is nice. Any good deal for an i7 CPU and mobo?

    • +1

      It depends on what you're after on your mobo… I'd recommend you go with at least USB3.1 and M2/ultra M2 for some basic future proofing.

      • Does Asus H170 Pro Gaming LGA1151 with an i5 6600 sound good? Not interested in OC.

        • Yep, it will play pretty much every gamr out there atm with the right GPU. I'd go Z170 and 6600K for a bit of future proofing though.

        • @educalifa: Future proofing as in being to overclock or is there anything else offered in that combo?

        • @saaron:

          Well, both really… I haven't really looked into the H170 boards but I'd say it will be a bit harder to get onw with a M2 port. Which will prob become a lot more popular now that M2 SSD are becoming cheaper. Also, a very mild overclock will help your cpu not being the bottleneck of your system in the future.

  • How did you manage to get this to ship to AUS. The item states,

    "This item does not ship to Australia. Please check other sellers who may ship internationally"

    If there is a way around this please let me know
