    $386 at HN.$366 at OW with price match.no deal for refurbished.

  • ironpaw on 14/09/2011 - 10:21

    Err wasn't the 32GB 3G model selling for $399 brand new????

    Oops that was a once off at GoodGuys…still, these are like $386 from HN brand new…

    HN brand new….$386.00 Refurb at $346.00 (shipped)???? what are they thinking???

    would be a deal if under $300.00

    You guys have to admit though, a refurb is better than Yum Cha, you know, if you really can't stretch the extra $30 for a brand new Acer. Thats a slab of VB to some people lol.

    • jv on 14/09/2011 - 10:30
      +3

      if you can't stretch the extra $30, maybe you should reconsider buying a Tablet…

      • stumo on 14/09/2011 - 10:37
        +4

        Or maybe reconsider buying that slab of VB.

        • slowmo on 14/09/2011 - 10:50

          meh, i rather buy a couple of yum cha ones. seriously, $30 more to get a brand new one as opposed to a refurb one.. if you are one of those people who eat out, you just need to skip eating for a day.

          How the heck is this a bargain?

        • stumo on 14/09/2011 - 10:53

          You will note I haven't pos voted it.

          But now that its been negged to oblivion, is anyone game enough to try an OW pricematch? In typical dodgey online store fashion, this doesn't say refurb in big letters anywhere.

          Go on, you know you want to. You can always plead ignorance.

        • slowmo on 14/09/2011 - 10:56

          i don't think i would want to make enemies at my local OW with this deal :D I go there often, and so far my pricematches and returns are all cool. The OW pricematch policy is one of the best 'bargaining tool', pity they don't sell dysons…

  • thorpef1 on 14/09/2011 - 10:32

    This is really worrying that there are refurbs out there already.
    How reliable are they?

    • NewslettersDirect.c… on 14/09/2011 - 10:34

      That's what I thought straight away. I think as the user you will always remember that the product is refurb.

    • stumo on 14/09/2011 - 10:36

      I've seen several reports on WP of the casing splitting open at the seams. I certainly wouldn't be buying Acer this side of $250 refurb or not.

  • medium_tight on 14/09/2011 - 10:41

    $300+ and refurb?

    http://gifsoup.com/view/2918146/thriller-cat.html

    Put $200 tag, then you can claim "The lowest priced Acer 10" Tablet on the market"

  • bnh on 14/09/2011 - 10:58

    What's your dead pixel policy?
    Rep at OW told me he has A500 16GB with 1 dead pixel for $350 because Acer does not want to replace tablet with only 1 dead pixel :/

  • superkieu on 14/09/2011 - 11:10

    the discount on this refurb unit compared to a brand new unit is too small, not worth it.

  • AssociatedJason_dealfox.com.au @ eSOLD.com.au on 14/09/2011 - 11:34

    Fair comment guys. Appreciate the feedack for our new startup.

    What would be an appealing price for a refurbished unit in light of the HN/OW major price slash?

    Looks like we'll have to sharpen our pencils here. $299+ shipping?

    • stumo on 14/09/2011 - 11:35

      I'd give you a + for $299 including shipping.

  • ricky123 on 14/09/2011 - 11:58

    Jason $299 sounds good and would you allow pickup?

  • AssociatedJason_dealfox.com.au @ eSOLD.com.au on 14/09/2011 - 12:02
    +16

    Thanks for the feedback everyone. We've dropped it to $299 until stock sells out today. Everyone who has ordered has been contacted for a refund in difference.

    Come next week, we'll have some killer price on 16gb and hopefully 32gb model. Yes, cheaper then HN/OW and delivered Aust wide. Got to love a price war eh :)

    • bnh on 14/09/2011 - 12:56

      So it'll be cheaper next week?

      • AssociatedJason_dealfox.com.au @ eSOLD.com.au on 14/09/2011 - 13:29

        The refurb will be priced the same. The new models will be another pricing but definitely less then HN/OW. Yet to finalize with the team.

    • stumo on 14/09/2011 - 13:05

      Gave you a plus anyway, $7 shipping is pretty darn good.

  • salem on 14/09/2011 - 13:06

    I'm still iffy on whether this is a good deal or not (I'm very wary of refurb units), but I have + voted Jason_dealfox's comment for being a good responsive rep who actually listens to potential customers instead of suddenly getting all defensive and hostile.

    • stumo on 14/09/2011 - 13:08

      Go on, this deal needs all the help it can get. At least to balance out the initial flurry of negs.

      • salem on 14/09/2011 - 14:05
        +1

        Fair enough. Done.

      I guess refurbs come down to which manufacturer and their reputation for refurbished goods. I have no hesitation with some brands like Apple, Samsung, Panasonic, etc with their refurbs. We checked the Acer stock and they all look great with reassurance from Acer Australia direct plus warranty provisions.

  • bemybubble on 14/09/2011 - 14:08

    removed neg :)

  • sydboy007 on 14/09/2011 - 19:22

    I decided to get one. Considering it's got 12 month warranty I don't think there's too much risk, and teh $299 price is the point at which I told meself I'd get a tablet for reading PDF books on.

    Just a shame this had to come out after I left for my bali holiday.

    • aec on 14/09/2011 - 20:30

      if you only use it for pdf file, MyTab suffices @ $100.

  • ozb-442 on 14/09/2011 - 20:17

    Great deal for $300. Good to see the Rep responding to negative criticism. I personally wouldn't pay the extra $80 for brand new, most refurbs usually have the outer casing replaced anyway making them look new.

    • bnh on 14/09/2011 - 20:27

      I think that only applies for ipads.

      • ozb-442 on 14/09/2011 - 21:35

        No, it pretty much applies for everything.

        • bnh on 15/09/2011 - 07:48

          not to those factory reconditioned whitegoods :)

          Lets see how the Iconia looks when it arrives today.

  • jackofspade on 14/09/2011 - 20:28

    I guess these refurbished one does not qualify for the bonus $100 evoucher.

    • aec on 14/09/2011 - 20:31
      +2

      not many people care about the evoucher at all.

      • tg on 14/09/2011 - 21:44

        I bought Acer Iconia and decided not to claim the eVoucher because I need to cut barcode from the packaging box.
        I rather keep the box in its original condition.

  • scotty on 14/09/2011 - 21:57

    Hmmm. Consider getting one for work. Does it include GST? Does a look up on their ABN says it's not GST-registered…

    • AssociatedJason_dealfox.com.au @ eSOLD.com.au on 14/09/2011 - 23:20

      hey Scotty. I'll check with the accounts tomorrow. We definitely should be registered for GST. The Tax Invoice does include GST

  • mirz on 14/09/2011 - 22:31

    does this come with honeycomb 3.1?

    • ozhunter on 15/09/2011 - 01:09

      Even if it doesn't should just be able to update it.

  • daKIK on 15/09/2011 - 09:38

    • scotty on 15/09/2011 - 09:44

      It says expires yesterday…

  • daKIK on 15/09/2011 - 10:39

    Yeh i can see that.. Im guessing they all sold out!
    Might have to wait for next week to grab one

    • AssociatedJason_dealfox.com.au @ eSOLD.com.au on 15/09/2011 - 14:13

      Yep we sold out our first allotment. A smaller lot will come in next week along with some brand new ones at a hot price.

      Shipments are going out today with tracking links (within the email) to be sent out shortly. Thanks again for the feedback everyone.

  • bigrizz on 15/09/2011 - 15:23

    Just wanted to give a big up to dealfox for getting me my Iconia I ordered yesterday afternoon into my hot little hands less than a day later. Haven't fired her up yet - that's my job for tonight.

    I also bought the 8GB MicroSDHC that turned out to be a class 4 instead of the class 2 advertised. Nice little bonus! Not often you get more than you pay for.

    So great start, dealfox. Keep up the good work!

    I've just received the Acer tab and it's in as new condition in original box. I should be able to use the serial number sticker on the box to claim the $100 eGift voucher. If not then it will only cost me a stamp.
    The tab comes with HC 3.0 so I'll need to upgrade to 3.1/3.2
