First Post, so go easy…

From JB HiFi (updated for correct model…)

Win 7 Home Premium
DVD +/- & CD Player
3 USB Ports
Media Card Reader
Webcam
WIFI
Intel HD Graphics
500 GB HDD
4 GB RAM
15.6 Inch Screen
1 HDMI Ports
1366 x 768 Screen Resolution
3 Cell Battery

No hagling, ticketed price was ~$495 he said it comes down to just under $400 with the 20% off this weekend (flyers around JB said 10% off computers - I didn't ask why it was 20% off)

Receipt says c850/074

available online @ this price, note it is NOT the I5 version - is this still ok at the price?

Box doesn't have the specs on it, but has part number PSKC8A-07400S

    Thats the c850/074..

    The online JB price is $632 at the minute. Are you sure the $495 ticketed price wasnt with the 20% off?

    are you sure this is i5 model, because from the parts no on the invoice show this is only B950 CPU

    so it's not Core i5 then. I have never seen a NEW Core i5 laptop which is below $400! I should also mention it's a TOSHIBA laptop.

  • Balls on 09/06/2012 - 12:01

    ive scored a i3 for 299 from here, so id imagine i5 might not be impossible, but the radeon in this seems to make it very unlikely

    +1

    did OP take home the wrong laptop or did the guys at JB mix it up?

    this is C850/02D at $632.80, the C850/074 shown on receipt is a Pentium B960

    wrong description

  • grover77 on 09/06/2012 - 12:06

    I wasn't aware of the lower spec'd model - perhaps not the bargain I hoped for…

  • fchis on 09/06/2012 - 12:10

    It's still a bargain as OW is selling it for $497 but probably will hit the front page if it is a Core I5 or even a I3. Thanks for the effort tho :)

    "available online @ this price, note it is NOT the I5 version - is this still ok at the price?"

    It's an OK price but it only has a 3 cell battery? I've never seen a 15" with a 3 cell before.

  • highdealer on 09/06/2012 - 12:16

    Wow you bought a laptop and didnt even know what you was getting
    With only a Pentium B950 its not that great, an i3 would make it ok
    Price beat this with office work for another $19.88 off make this laptop $377.72

    • grover77 on 09/06/2012 - 12:27

      Shoot first, ask qns later. Returning is always an option

      • highdealer on 09/06/2012 - 13:00

        i rather take the toshiba over the hp but only if i really need a laptop. And do youself a favor and remove the question mark from the title

  • grover77 on 09/06/2012 - 12:32

    I was actually looks at the hp dm1 which is $358 ( amd e450 1.6ghz.) Is this faster? Not so fussed on the size…

    you got "JB HiFi'ed" my freind =)

  • Moderatorpauly on 09/06/2012 - 14:04

    pvergers, since this is clearly a mistake initially at posting the wrong model, and your post seems to be more of getting member opinions on what they think would be a deal，I'm moving this post to the forums.
