    What's the brand name? If it's awesome, why not mention it?

  • RandomNinja on 14/01/2011 - 10:49

    Brand is Arista per their website.

    Price is pretty good I guess, Dealsdirect have it for $40 plus shipping.

    Rep: Suggest you put some shipping estimates in for each state as your site won't let us check until we've created an account.

    Not sure how easy is it to get the "$150,000 of Guaranteed Insurance Cover". If your how caught fire from this though.

      "Arista Electronics"

      i can't see the product on the website. discontinued?

      "Not sure how easy is it to get the “$150,000 of Guaranteed Insurance Cover”

      some of those insurance covers are quite restrictive. typically they make you nominate equipment to be covered up front and that's they only thing they cover. too bad if you buy a new tv later on. i don't know what arista's insurance cover is like.

  • b00gie on 14/01/2011 - 10:58

    interesting, but there's like 2 minutes left til end of the sale

    If you can buy 3000 at one time from Supplier as a bulk buy then you may have a chance of getting close to our price.. Why you would want to post a negative comment like that?? Would be great to get some support on the great deals we are offering, Is'nt that what this site is about?.. Please vote for us and help us!

      I assume this is a response to RandomNinja.

      His comment is, at worst, neutral and informative to the bargain hunters. For you it should come off as a positive thing to say - the closest price he can find is $40. People will read that and see your price is $25 and with after some complicated mathematics come to understand yours is $15 cheaper.

      He also gave you a helpful tip on making the deal more accessible to ozbargainers by adding shipping details.

      The point of the comments section is to discuss whether the deal is a bargain, not supporting or helping out a rep for a company. That's not to say there's anything wrong with supporting a rep who's putting out good deals, but it's not done every time just to be super positive.

    good price, purchased a few of them on COTD last year for $29.95 + $7.95 shipping (Victoria), they work very well, did actually protected my PC/2x32" LCDs from a power surge late last year.

    • Domingo on 14/01/2011 - 11:28

      Did other stuff in your house die, or did the switch on the board just flick?

      Not criticizing, just wondering how you determined that it protected your pc/screens.

  • Mikinoz on 14/01/2011 - 11:23

    I havent seen a power board without a brand name, also have never heard of Arista least they are Australian apparently.

    also i would not be connecting 8 devices at once unless they were low power devices, end in tears with cheaper power boards

    "Would be great to get some support on the great deals we are offering, Is’nt that what this site is about?.. "

    Yes when the deals are good, when they are on the edge they get burnt like you wouldnt beleive, thick skin is a must!

    • Domingo on 14/01/2011 - 11:31

      8 devices is fine depending on what they are. If its computer gear like hubs, routers etc they draw very little no power, just a bit of inrush current if they all turn on at the same time like after a power outage. I have something like 16 powered devices in my study at home coming out of 4 points on the wall and tested everything, all well below the specifications of the power boards I'm using.

      Admittedly my Z-5500s are plugged straight into the a wall socket :P

      • Mikinoz on 14/01/2011 - 11:59

        did you miss this part "8 devices at once unless they were low power devices"

    what time is your PC set to? We have our site set to check your own PC time.. I am guessing your time is not Australian time? Sale is still in effect until 10am tommorrow.

    • nubix on 14/01/2011 - 11:40

      Incorrect; our Domain Controller is CST and is correctly synching NTP.

      You do realise that 10:00am in, say, Melbourne is different to other parts of the country?

      My post was at 9:56am ish CST, which explains the 4 minutes remaining vs what you saw as 23 hours. It counts down to the next 10:00am period, regardless of date. That's a terrible way to do it. Make it so that it internally checks and displays the actual time remaining on the sale (10:00am wherever your place of business is).

  • b00gie on 14/01/2011 - 11:32

    weird it just went to 23 hours remaining… lol

    must've started a new 24 hours on the same product :P

    had one break down on me the other day. build quality of the device is poor. opened it up and half the wires inside where soldered on, and the other half the person on made it "forgot" or where to "lazy" to solder them together. the wires inside where just looped and twisted. had to resolder all the loose connectors to get it working again.

  • Store Repesold @ eSOLD.com.au on 14/01/2011 - 12:03

    Arista or Bostton? They are different products from different manufacturers, even though they may look similar. and we have the newest version which is great quality.. Passes all Australian Standards

    Bad news.

    The website is registered to Computercom Pty Ltd ABN 19079795494. That ABN has been cancelled since 2003. In case you're wondering, that means exactly as it sounds. From the ABR website: An ABN with a status of 'cancelled' means that the ABN has been deactivated and is no longer current.

    There is no alternative ABN listed.

    This is a private seller, not a business.
