    What if I order online and pick up? Btw, your link is still showing $30

      Have you tried using that coupon code that's in the description?.

      • ykwon10 on 17/08/2016 - 11:17

        oh silly me…of course there is a coupon code. haha! thanks mate!

        Anyways, OP what if I choose pickup?

        • hollykryten on 17/08/2016 - 11:17

          Why not try it the store pickup?. It says there's a bunch of stores in VIC with it stocked. I guess either it works or it doesn't. It should although work. There's nothing in the thread description saying that the offer is delivery only. It just says online only which i take it as online order only?. But you are ordering online and selecting to store pickup.

          If the OP meant delivery only then it should stated as so.

          Hi mate, it is for online only. Stores will not be able to adjust the price to $5 at all. Really soryr about that

          @hung861988:

          Does that mean that you can order online (through your online account) but select store pickup?. It's still being ordered online. It's confusing.

          If it's really delivery only then the thread description should be saying just that?.

          @hung861988: excellent so have to pay ~$12 postage for a mousepad? Pfft not much of a deal now is it

  • RtN on 17/08/2016 - 11:15

    When will the RX 480 Nitro or MSI Gaming X be available?

  • Overtime2000 on 17/08/2016 - 11:25

    does this mouse pad improve your audio experience?

    • hollykryten on 17/08/2016 - 11:25

      Only if you have a Creative sound card.

    $13 for shipping to Sydney :-(
    Not available for pickup in Sydney.

    Shipping kills this deal unless picked up. Not paying the ridiculous $12.80 for local shipping when I got my order shipped from the States for $13 UPS which is probably faster than the Aust Post jokers.

      Absolutely agree!
      Got to checkout and was approx $12 postage even though there is a store up the road from me that I could easily pickup from. Postage scam at its finest

  • jimbler on 17/08/2016 - 11:29

    What's the difference between a high performance mousepad and an ordinary mousepad?

  • feisca on 17/08/2016 - 11:31

    Got a free pick up. Time to make a pilgrimage to my nearest MSY. :D

  • compound on 17/08/2016 - 11:33

    Wow that was fast someone Brogen'd it.

    • ykwon10 on 17/08/2016 - 11:36

      It was OOS for all other states except VIC to start with. Maybe that is why REP stated online + postage orders.

    • hollykryten on 17/08/2016 - 11:53

      Only stock left is the VIC Online. It's supposed to be 1 per customer too.

  • wombat1955 on 17/08/2016 - 11:54

    I still use a mousepad for everyday use and they've always been free ones, but have wanted a good quality one for some time. I don't think this price is too bad even with the shipping cost. It's almost half price and I couldn't find it cheaper anywhere else.

    • hollykryten on 17/08/2016 - 12:01

      I use a mousepad too. I find a better gaming experience using a good one as opposed to a hard surface. The mouse sensor seems to glide over the surface better on a gaming mousepad. At the moment i'm using an ASUS ROG gaming mousepad that ASUS packages in the box from one of those high end ASUS ROG motherboards.

    • stevenlab91 on 17/08/2016 - 18:36

      Check out EB from time to time my man
      I got a really good steelseries one for $10 (rrp $34.95)
      Apparently they have them on special quite regularly

  • caprimulgus on 17/08/2016 - 11:57

    how does this compare to QCK, G240, and the like?

  • white3knight on 17/08/2016 - 12:53

    It doesnt allow me to select "pick up" only automated to post via AustPost for $10.38.. sucks

  • hollykryten on 17/08/2016 - 12:57

    Strange. Now it's showing as back in stock at all the stores in VIC and before they were all OOS. I'm thinking a heap of pickup orders have been cancelled. That's a kind of a bit of poor form there.

  • Hirolol on 17/08/2016 - 13:34

    So they are just trying to recoup the cost of these mousepads with the rediculous shipping cost right?
    The shipping for these really shouldnt cost more than $5 to a capital city right?

    Dont hold me to that as i have no idea how much shipping costs but SURELY it cant be $10+ as others have stated.

    • Jaduqimon on 17/08/2016 - 13:41

      yep. assuming this pad weighs less than 500g. Auspost does parcels for $7.45 flat rate Aus-wide for <500g parcels.

      Im sure MSY gets better shipping rates.

  • hollykryten on 17/08/2016 - 14:07

    I think MSY is confused on the meaning of online order. Online order (with store pickup option) is still an online order in its origin.

  • Ozjoey on 17/08/2016 - 19:46

    Bought one :)
