Has anyone dealt with this mob? That's a good price for a top spec Envy 13? Obviously if it's too cheap I get nervous.

I noticed their ebay store has a few other cheap listings too.

99% with over 30k reviews. You should be fine. A 4k screen on a 13 inch does seem like overkill to me. Get ready for scaling issues.

seems like it was a costco deal ; check out US ebay link https://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-HP-ENVY-13-AD173CL-13-3-4K-UHD-…

  Quite possibly. I got skeptical so didn't jump at it.

    Most likely sourced from overseas, prob the US / costco slickdeals
    
    You can see from feedback that people have had issues with adapters/plugs

    Pc ok, non Aus compliant adapter provided then replaced after way to many emails
    
    and more than likely same seller as jbsalestech which also has the following feedback:

I am also considering buying this and there is a 10% off sale tonight https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/368064 but loke's research posts (thanks) now have me concerned about the seller especially as this is not a cheap/disposable item/price.

  Indeed sounds too good to be true. I'm now waiting for the next Lenovo/Amex combo for a new laptop.
