Hello again OzBargaineers, it's been a while since we last posted. We hope you have been keeping safe over the past few months.
Here is a last minute Metabox deal for you.
Save $100 on the 15.6" GTX1660Ti with 6 Core Intel i7-10750H CPU NH58DC laptop. Now $1729.
And don't forget that you can upgrade the specs on our website, so add on more RAM or SSD storage if required.

Metabox laptops allow the user to customise their laptop to exactly the specs that they want. So if you already have a copy of Windows 10 or SSD's from an older laptop, then you don't have to pay for them again.
Upgrading the OS, RAM, HDD, SSD or Wi-Fi card won't void the warranty either.

Please allow 7-10 business days for building and testing at the Perth factory. All orders Air-Express ship directly to you from the Perth factory.
Choose from the standard base configuration or select more options from the "customise" menus on the right of the products webpage.
Offer valid until midnight this Tuesday evening 30th June.

      Agreed, it's not even a deal at this point

      • mycosys on 28/06/2020 - 02:12

        Whats really ironic is he has actually understated the nominal 'saving'.
        He has listed the saving over and above the Metabox EOFYS sale price, which they claim is another $450 below RRP.

        Could have said save $550. Said Save $100

        Really seems to be trying to do the right thing here, and i doubt you can find THIS CLEVO LAPTOP cheaper.
        I feel for the guy. Honest Dealing doesnt deserve these negs

      Its actually a decent deal for a Clevo chassis.

    • bchliu on 26/06/2020 - 22:47

      To be fair, the upgrade to 16GB is $39 and 500GB is $29 on top (if you are ok with Kingston). These are the newer 10th Gen CPUs, but you do lose the included OEM Windows 10 that the Dells and Lenovos come with.

      Hey Rep (Kris?).. Looking at upgrading my 3 yr+ old P670RE and need the 17" screen. Any chance to get this one down to $2k on the dot?

      This really is shocking value.

      No bargain

      • Store RepKong Computers @ Kong Computers on 27/06/2020 - 23:44

        Hey poshjimmyxo,
        I thought using the word "shocking" means that I have offended you here. My apologies!
        I haven't had someone call one of our deals this severe of a word before :) Is it really that bad?
        The base price is usually $1829 for this 10th Gen Intel model and is higher than the old 9th Gen model as the supply of the new 6 Core i7 chips are in short supply.

        Out of interest, what is your fair price on this product?
        The similar MSI GL65 is $2399. If you spec up our deal to the same specs as the MSI (with W10, 16GB & 512GB PCIe SSD) then it comes to $1957.
        https://www.kongcomputers.com.au/laptops/laptops-by-brand/ms…
        Saving almost $450.

        The Aorus 5 is $2299, down from $2499.

          Appreciate the level-headed and thoughtful response.

          Prices are relative. There's no much thing as fair, or shocking.

          I bought 12mo ago, and have been following prices of RTX laptops.

          For $2K I got i7, 2060 (non Max q), 16GB dual lane, 1TB SSD (PCIe), 120Hz IPS, Windows, SteelSeries keys, local warranty, branded manufacturer.

          I still consider that a good deal. I've seen better, if you bargain hunt and are patient. I've seen a few 2070 laptops for sub-$2K.

          Relative to the better bargains that have been found since RTX release, I think this is shocking value. But in the current climate, and for someone that needs to buy now, this may present good value?

            @poshjimmyxo: Cheers for the reply, I'm going to keep your reply on stand-by from now on and whenever my wife says that I'm being irrational, I'll show her your reply :) :) "Appreciate the level-headed and thoughtful response."

            Definitely, that deal you got was great a year ago. We had a similar one for $1769 back in October 2019 with 17.3" RTX2060, i7 9th Gen, 16GB RAM. The shortfall was the SSD, but you could have upgraded it to 1TB SSD. It would have been $100 cheaper too if it was the 15.6" model instead of 17.3". The 9th Gen CPU's had been about for some time too, so the prices had leveled off. So you definitely bought at the right time.
            Today's circumstances are just so much different.
            I think I took your comments a bit too personal originally, so thanks for clarifying.
            But definitely hit us up when you are ready to upgrade your laptop again :) I'll sort a deal for you. The market should (hopefully) be better then.
            Cheers and stay safe.

    • Store RepKong Computers @ Kong Computers on 27/06/2020 - 23:33

      Hi Raynes, Thanks for the post.
      We have set the product with the base config so customers can upgrade only what they want in the laptop. I'd like to think that the Metabox brand is the most customisable laptop on the market :)
      But you are correct in saying that 512GB and 16GB is more the norm these days. We find that most customers ask for 16GB RAM (2x8GB) and 500GB or 1TB SSD lately. However some customers also want to install their own SSD's from their old laptop as well.

      BTW, I had a look at the link that you posted, there's a lot of different specs on there between those Dell models. It's hard to compare, the i7-10750H model only had the GTX1650Ti. Intel 10th Gen 6 Core CPU's (i7-10750H) are in short supply at the moment. Hence their premium price since launch on the new 10th gen models. AMD has a bit of a leap here.
      Plus it's always a luxury to be the manufacturer and post great deals :), we have to buy from the supplier so the margins are tighter.
      Cheers

          Ryzen 3000 Desktop is the same as Ryzen 4000 mobile - they are both identical Zen2 7nm cores
          Ryzen 2000 Desktop is the same as Ryzen 3000 mobile - Zen+ 12nm

          Ryzen 3000 Desktop is a LOT faster than Ryzen 4000 Mobile.

          (the fact you dont know this is why they do it in the first place, horrible marketing practice)

    Bought a laptop from these guys through a deal on here a couple of years ago. Never used the Laptop outside my desk at home and the casing cracked from closing/opening the laptop after light use.

    Explained the situation one month outside of warranty and was told that due to it being outside the warranty period it would incur a $244 repair cost just to repair the plastic casing. They aren't obliged to do anything of course, but was hoping they would support the customers supporting the site!

    Will be looking elsewhere once it eventually dies, definitely for a decent desktop next time round (lesson learned)
