$6 + $5.95 = Bad vs Good = $11.95 + free
http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/36692
is this a dupe or sock puppeting?
REGULAR POST: $5.95
Carrier: Australia Post• PICKUP AT PICKUP POINT: $3.00
Handling Fee is calculated by QTY purchasedStore in Melbourne
How much if you don't pick it up but instead ask the staff to throw it to you and you catch it?
$5.95… that's counted as "delivery".
Air mail?
If you walk in, and they happen to have it there, do you still have to pay a pickup at point charge?
$5.95 delivery per drive so 4 x drives = $22 delivery / $12 p-up,
postage mark up make's this not much of a bargainalways does, sir,,
and if you order two, the postage price doubles! WRONG!
Aside from storage size, what's the difference between Sandisk Cruzer and Sandisk Ultra?
i believe that the ultra has higher reading and writing speeds than the cruzer
If I remember correct, labeling is also different.
Try buying 10 of the "8GB Sandisk Cruzer for $6 from ITDevice" and you will be told $30 pick up fee or $41.65 postal fee for a package that probably costs $10 to post.
Hmm not really a bargain taking pickup handling fee or P&H fee into account…
Yep, seriously $3.00 to pickup and item and pay cash! Negative just for this alone!
Why not just put $3 on top of all your prices if THAT IS YOUR MINIMUM SELLING PRICE
Agreed. The vendor is inflating delivery charges, in order to get around this legislation:
You are prolly dead right - a stupid trick by the seller
sounds like most vendors on ebay
Agree. $3/unit to pick up. What's a joke. Just add it to the price.
Buy the time you add those fees, the 8GB/16GB Lexar @ Harvey Norman/Domayne seems better value. Got the Toshiba as there Lexar out of stock. 12.5MB/s write speed according to benchmarking software.
$11.95 including delivery is not so much of a bargain anymore.
Buying 10 with $41.65 postage making them just a little over $10 each. Still the thought of paying $41.65 postage for something that weighs probably < 0.5KG kills the deal for me.
This is funny the 16gb cost $9.73 for delivery - Aus Post charge extra for a because it's double the size

hahahahahaha
16GB costs more in postage + handling because the vendor pays a higher premium for the 'insurance'.
The vendor self insures the items sent out.That is my 'theory'. Unscrupulous vendors are welcome to use it. ;-)
not true registered post cost $1 and should be used by all vendors that accecpt paypal
ah…vendor may insure against damages while 'handling' :-)
Unscrupulous it is
Registered post is about $2 (in bulk) and includes insurance for $50.
But a commercial seller would be using Couriers or eParcel so the discussion re: Registered is pretty much irrelevant
The postage is to much. I sent them an email telling them that it is to much. It stopped me from placing an order I wanted to order 25 items and postage was over $100
Wouldnt mind a 32GB one
Yeh, i just added 20 to cart, and to pick them up they want $60!!! TO PICK THEM UP!!!
$60 to pay 1 person to grab 20 and put them in a plastic bag! WHAT A JOKE!!!!
And just for fun, if you want 1000 of them - they charge you $3000 to pick them up, or $224 to mail them to you.
High postage….i wonder why there are people positiving this deal.
Just got 1 from Officeworks in Sydney for $10.45.
They price matched! $10.45 for a 8GB is pretty cheap!
Just walk-in with the Website page print.
If any problems, let me know and ill get the receipt from the car and post the link for that here!
How did you come up with $10.45?
(EDIT Just realised its 5% not 10%)
$6 of itdevice.com.au
$3 handling fee if pickup
Total = $9 (if Pricematched and beat by 5%) = 0.95 * 9 = $8.55or
$6 of itdevice.com.au
$5.95 postage
Total = $11.95 (if Pricematched and beat by 5%) = 0.95 * 11.95 = $11.35Thats the correct calculation but Officeworks price matched $11 ($6+$5) which equated to $10.45..
yeah, far from a bargain. the post should be taken off.
whats the cheapest one you can find anywhere?
this post got 55+ vote's 2 weeks ago basically it's the same price just worded differently
http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/36692
$6 + $5.96 = Bad vs $11.95 + free = Good
LOL same sh1t different smell =)
If it was FREE but $11.95 shipping. It wouldn't have even got a positive vote :)
I think the "WOOOOOOOWLOLOLOLOL!!!11" is behind this chaos.
cheeky buggers. +$3 is the min selling price. this stinks
if enough people complain to them about their pick up fee, im sure they will get rid of it. its what happened with mwave, they had a pick up fee which was ridiculous when they have a proper store, consumers complained about it giving them a bad rep and now they have been nice enough to waive it. but still their prices are expensive
Read what prodigy wrote above. Its the same deal that appeared before but worded differently.
But still $10 for a 8GB is cheap!!
Deceptive pricing.
Yes, deceptive.
And disgusting. What a bunch of scammers.
lol they changed it to free shipping at $11 well done MOB.
it shows they are watching, the sock-puppet has succumb to pressure
deceptive pricing.
Congrats to all posters for helping pressurise them into changing it.
Postage and pick up fee kill this deal!
pickup fee? WTF?
5.95$ postage bullshit!!
