      well, by law they need to show the % to obtain each item in the loot box. The "system" from OnlineComputer could be Joe from handling department handing out over stocked crap brand.

    Don't be sour grape and neg and whine if this is out of your budget.

    There’s a difference between not being able to afford something and being smart enough to see that spending $2000 on a single component to play video games isn’t the smartest financial decision.

      You want the best, you pay for it. If you can afford it, it doesn't matter what you think of the decision.

    • [Deactivated] on 08/01/2023 - 09:18

    Initially thought it was decent, but I'd rather not take a 100$ discount (over amazon) and risk getting a colorful/galax/pny model. Also Marc set me straight, if GN is right on the money 4080 buyers should wait till Feb.

    • [Deactivated] on 08/01/2023 - 09:25

      Amazon has easy return and warranty service. Probably the easiest amongst all resellers.

      I'm surprised they sell 4080 for $2099, usually price is jacked up there.

      Why you're negging this deal if the amazon is $100 dearer?

      • fiend on 08/01/2023 - 11:19

        $100 to choose the card they actually want, instead of getting a crappy "mystery" card.

    What the (profanity) are those prices! $2399 for 4080? Are we still in the chip shortage and mining era? You can buy 4090 from luke for a tad more (even that I dont recommend).

    CPU price, mother board price, memory prices, SSD price are all falling. Why should GPU increase? lol.

    "Lucky dip" is silly for an in-stock purchase.

    Some of these 4080s are known to have hideous coil whine (read reports of ASUS being the main culprit). Some prevent changing of power limits.

    Assuming this is permanently the price of this class of GPU, this is a big purchase even for those who can afford it. Let us choose (and then lower the price of the models that aren't as popular).

  • Springfield on 08/01/2023 - 12:12

      Exactly my thought. I am negging this due to the stupid price and this so call 'equally chance' without any real evidence.

      Don't be sour grape when people negging your deal OP

  • Smilence03 on 08/01/2023 - 13:47
    +3

    Didn't see the mentioning of "Rod" and "$500 budget", but still seeing the whining about getting negged. So this deal isn't great, and we have no way of knowing of their stock availability, their drawing chance, their honesty etc. I made a discussion post here asking people's opinion on whether it is a good idea to buy one of these "lucky dips" promo, and the overwhelming feedback is not to.

    From that, TimeMachine seemed to have then discovered there is a $1999 4080 deal, thus this OP.

    Still, nothing special about this deal, but rather highly risky for people to be easily offloaded with a PNY/Galax/INNO3D etc low end crappy models. It then clicked to me that the intention of this post is not to show people a real or good deal, but to agitate the already chaotic GPU discussion on OzB, and to troll around with people's reactions and discussions. Will be negging this

    • purplebangle on 08/01/2023 - 13:57

      Probably hit the nail on the head. He's pulled similar stunts in the past under his old account.

    • bmxr on 08/01/2023 - 14:49

      OP "discovered" it here yesterday

      https://www.ozbargain.com.au/comment/13209726/redir

      It's an interesting marketing tactic and is sure to catch some people out. Those that like the gamble or to feel lucky.

      But Online Computer are in business and will need to be breaking even or making money on this deal so the proportions of lower value cards will need to significantly outweigh the provision of the higher end cards.

      I'm surprised these offers don't fall under competition/raffle laws as you are effectively buying the chance to win something.. Not a straight transaction for a product or service. Can't find the T+C on the website, but maybe that's because I'm on the phone.

      That being said, I have in the past, and will continue in the future, just not this "deal"

      • Smilence03 on 08/01/2023 - 15:21

        The only T+C on that website is a generic copy&paste T+C that can be found everywhere on Google: Website Terms of Use

        In the product page, it states that "T$C applied", but NO product-specific T&C can be found anywhere. Highly risky, uncreditable, and super dodgy.

        In fact, judging by a number of factors on the website, Online Computer is highly unlikely to be owned by a local Aussie business(but as Chinese background). Good luck arguing with them about ACL, and the license to operate competition/raffle.

    • MiniMyna on 08/01/2023 - 19:59

    Lol, what a shady business practice. So you get to clear your stock and we will to feel lucky?

    When AMD announced 7900 series, we thought they would be the saviour. But they are just one of the duopoly and increased their price as such. There is no real competition in the market.

        Not sure, but TimeMechine's account was only created back in September last year. Most of his activities and comments so far are mostly trolling people around and agitating stuff up under GPU related posts.

        All signs point to yes. He makes the exact same comments he used to (with the same choice of language) and the new account was made at around the same time his old one started getting sin binned.

  • NuclearWessels on 09/01/2023 - 02:58

    If I'm spending $2k on a card, I'd rather spend a little more and get a brand I know rather than chance it on some lucky dip.

    It says it's random, but it's probably random among all the stock they have - so heavily weighted to cheaper brands which are around the $2k mark anyway.

    Not a bargain imo

    • Whanny on 18/01/2023 - 23:38

      If you are ok with a cheap card it is a good deal. Aren't the cheap ones 2k already? At least you have a chance to get a more expensive card. Probably extremely low chance but better than none.

      I would be concerned with aftermarket support though.

  • Sinnerator on 09/01/2023 - 07:58

  • Heaps for Cheaps on 09/01/2023 - 18:17
