    Too good to be true. Probably typo

  • Matador_OZ on 12/01/2012 - 14:22

    I think they stuffed up, but will try to get one anyway

  • stargalaxy on 12/01/2012 - 14:22

    This is cheap if it is true. I suspect it is typo also.

  • brocsamson on 12/01/2012 - 14:23

    Can't be legit, surely?

  • pinktasha on 12/01/2012 - 14:24

    It's gone…

  • ktks on 12/01/2012 - 14:25

    No longer available…LOL.

  • grab_ur_freebies on 12/01/2012 - 14:25

    "No Longer Available"

  • Matador_OZ on 12/01/2012 - 14:28

    I managed to get one, lets see if they honour it

    • JR63 on 12/01/2012 - 14:28

      Same here, I doubt it though.

  • brocsamson on 12/01/2012 - 14:29

    Best of luck - that would be a hell of a buy!

    Looks like it was a typo and they fixed it.

    My apologies to everyone who missed out.

    Those that were quick enough, I hope it works out for you :)

    Techbuy Pty Ltd just sent you a full refund of $127.15 AUD for your purchase. If you have any questions about this refund, please contact Techbuy Pty Ltd.

    • davidl2 on 12/01/2012 - 15:08

      Toshiba bought Techbuy?
      Toshiba bought Lenovo?

  • Matador_OZ on 12/01/2012 - 14:40

    Refund for me as well.

    <insert usual OzB response about calling ACCC, starting Facebook group, never buying from TechBuy again> :P

    • roshee007 on 12/01/2012 - 15:01

      Reply to me with the reason of cancellation:

      "We had limited stock of this laptop and have already sold out.
      Unfortunately, we won’t be able to order in more of these laptops.
      However, if this offer is reopened or if we have a similar offer, would you like us to inform you?"

      Standard response…. What can the consumer do???? <:P>

      • bsdll on 12/01/2012 - 15:37

        Didn't they dig a hole for themselves? They said it was a limited stock thing but let you buy one. They didn't say it was a pricing error, which would have been legitimate. They actually gave you a reason to go to ACCC.

        From ACCC web site:

        "advertises goods and services at a specific price when it is, or should have been aware, that it would not be able to supply enough of the good at the price for a reasonable amount of time. This is called bait advertising."

        Food for thought…

        • nachoman on 12/01/2012 - 16:16

          I received the same copy and paste response to my cancellation enquiry

    • bingzang on 12/01/2012 - 15:01

      Pleaes upload the receipt, thank you :-) want to try PM too

    • ravzter on 12/01/2012 - 15:04

      upload the receipt please

    • davidl2 on 12/01/2012 - 15:09

      show us pic or it never happen!!

    • siuol on 12/01/2012 - 15:24

      Officework does not sell thinkpad

    lol if it were that easy, you could be a vendor, rig your prices, price match for stock from OW, refund customers stating error then resell OW stock at a higher price!

  • pauly on 12/01/2012 - 15:36

    Since the deal is a pricing error and everyone who made a purchase seem to be getting refunds, this will be moved to forums.
