This post contains affiliate links. OzBargain might earn commissions when you click through and make purchases. Please see this page for more information.

Grab your copy of Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013 or Mac office 2011 for $8 - $15 depending on what country you choose($8 for NZ, $10 for USA and $15 for Australia.
This pricing is only for eligible email accounts with company/education emails.

Also works with hotmail accounts but will cost you $30, because you will have to buy both the DVD backup copy and then add the license (as per ozbargainers comments, plz read thread page 4 and after).
From teh comments, MS charges $15 for the Licence first and possibly charges the $15 for the DVD later after its shipped. It is possible then to contact Microsoft and cancel the DVD to save $15 as per here.
Also note that when using a hotmail email, you can only purchase MS Office for Windows. Not sure why they dont allow to buy MS Office Mac when using hotmail

To Use with Hotmail:

Use any @hotmail.com address and then Program code 05383F4FAC.
But you better be quick before they fix the hotmail bug
Please all thank methos for the tip

If anyone is interested in the pricing of Office 2013, i got it from here

So, how about the rest of the Office SKU's? For starters, the traditional Office Standard will cost $369, while Office Professional Plus 2013 is priced at $499. Undergrads and doctoral students may want to check out Office Home & Student 2013 for $139.99. Meanwhile, Home and Business is priced at $219.99, and Office Professional 2013 runs $399.99.

Similiar to the deal i posted here that was for the 2010 edition

Got the confirmation email at my Hotmail address but no matter what country I choose (even AU) I can't add it to my cart. I've tried Chrome and IE, and I've tried the methods mentioned above. Any ideas where I'm going wrong or is it something on their end?

Also tried my @telstra.com (not @team.telstra.com) and @tafensw.net.au email address neither addresses worked. :( I do get the Windows version of Office 2013 but not what I needing, so looks like itsnotcheating maybe the only option.

I bought the $30 package using Hotmail but they only charged my credit card $15! Wish I could +ve this again!
Did this happen to anyone else?
- ozshaz on 23/01/2013 - 19:21
  
  Yep i think they would be charging the remaining $15 once they ship the dvd…but its just my assumption…even for me its showing $15..
  - saty1296 on 23/01/2013 - 19:35
    
    It is showing $15 charge for me on the 28 Degrees Card Statement. I am sure they will charge when they will dispatch backup media as the charges are broken down in two parts in the receipt, one for Product Key and other for Backup DVD.

    could you possibly email their customer support and cancel the DVD

    - EnALup on 25/01/2013 - 10:45
      
      I dont think they have a direct support email address. it will be lengthy process and I think not worth $15.

  Heh, but who is the one being tricked? Would you have paid full price for this?
  "If you don't see the sucker in the room, it's you!" - Just follow the money, that's your clue.
  
  like the unverified $14.99 Windows 8 upgrade "mistake" these little "tricks" flush out the thousands (millions?) of people that would never bother to upgrade or pay full price anyway = an extra $15 for each one at virtually no cost. Then surprise, surprise the loophole/ trick is closed once it gets too mainstream and risks costing the real/base customers and also upsetting the retailers.
  
  Remember too, LibreOffice is free as is Google Docs
  
  I got the deal too btw, even though the 2003 version already has at least 95% more features than I will ever need or learn, so they got me too :)

  - yada on 25/01/2013 - 19:40
    
    As another user stated, it's a clever way of making a little bit extra from those who are likely never to purchase it in the first place, and only did because it was a bargain.
    
    It's not something they're going to advertise and shout from the rooftops. Those tech savvy enough will find it and buy it while the rest will buy it through the normal channels.

OMG I downloaded the .img file literally 20 times, and all of them are corrupted! Not working…. anyone else have this issue?
- alvian on 29/01/2013 - 13:37
  
  No problem here. I suggest you find another Internet feed, or dare I say torrent the ISO's. The ISO's are exactly the same as the IMG's except MS changed the file names (verified by comparing SHA1 checksums against the values published on MSDN). Hopefully the built-in retry mechanism in BT will get you a good copy.
  - justcallmeboss on 29/01/2013 - 13:44
    
    hmmm…. I downloaded the 64bit .img files from the links provided in the comments on this post. Running Windows 8. Everything is legit, it's very frustrating haha. I may download the 32 bit version just to check. I don't want to torrent it….. possibly viruses? POSSIBLY? Thanks for your reply alvian! :D
    - alvian on 29/01/2013 - 13:52
      
      I performed a byte-by-byte compare (as well as computed SHA1's) between IMG's downloaded from MS and ISO's downloaded from BT. They are identical.
      
      Edit: Forgot to say "Use the 32-bit version, Luke." 64-bit breaks compatibility with extensions and plugins, and causes a lot of problems for the common home users. You only need 64-bit if your databases, spreadsheets and documents exceed 2GB in size.
