  • samfisher5986 on 13/03/2012 - 11:27

    rhys100 just a tip, if you want to do as well as a lot of other computer sellers on ozbargain then you need to go straight to a great bargain price and stick with it.

    You started with an average price and are haggling which is ok but really not going to work as well as if you just had the cheaper price to begin with.

      because for it to work i have to order them all at the same time. If i get a dribble of orders through late tonight and tomorrow then ill have to make another order, and i have to order at least 5 units of each size to get the pricing.

      • cynix on 13/03/2012 - 11:44

        HB Outlet's regular price is only a few dollars more (e.g. $307 vs $302 for 180GB version), perhaps your supplier isn't giving you the best deal they can?

        • Store Reprhys100 @ Phaser Computers on 13/03/2012 - 11:47

          There is $16.40 margin in it at $199 (if i get them shipped to me for free). If i remove paypal fees and shipping to customer, there is less than $10 profit. I don't think i really want to sell them for any less than that unless you would like to pick it up?

    • CyberGenesys on 13/03/2012 - 12:17

      Apart from model specific faults I would say they mostly perform the same. These both read/write of about 500MB/s which is standard for this price range SSD. The main difference is that the Intel comes with a 5 year warranty rather than the 3 of the Crucial.

      Having a sale for only a few hours is kinda gimmicky. Leave it for 24 hours - give people enough time to consider the offer.
      Also, it's not clear - are all drives OEM or only 60gb?

      @T1000

      MSY has 120GB for 30$ more with no postage?
      And as far as I can see they don't list the 240GB. PCCasegear have the 240GB for $399 and they are usually within 5-10$ of MSY. Perhaps you got a worse deal and/or are mis-informed?

  • T1OOO on 13/03/2012 - 13:54

    msy sell the RETAIL, not OEM.. so you get your $20 worth there with mounting bracket and what not,…..

    the whole instant factor to get it today instead of waiting with being able to take it back is worth it, to save a few pennies,..

    the cheapest for 240gb is $350 in aus,.. standard deal/price, so if there was a bargain to be had it would be $50 off to make it $300…

    what deal are you suggesting i got worse or am miss informed about? i got mine for $229 on Friday 120gb retail box.

    saving $10 of something costing over $200 isnt ozbargains worthy, thats all.

    • CyberGenesys on 13/03/2012 - 14:42

      Sorry, my bad. I keep forgetting the OEM/Retail thing. (btw its saving $20 as its also including postage)

      I want OEM as I have just received an order of 24SATA + Power cables, and my case (Fractal Design) already supports upto 8x2.5" drives. Plus for laptops the extras are useless. So I may as well save the few $ difference.

      Also I would much rather make my own mounting bracket out of aluminum for better heat dissipation, but thats just me.
