Clear on Nothing Phone (3a) 8GB RAM/128GB Storage $519, 12GB/256GB $579 (Price Check Button) + Delivery ($0 C&C) @ The Good Guys

Even if paying $99 extra for ram and $189 for windows this still ends up $100+ more than techfast. Although probably arrives 20 days earlier

Anyone know if IBKR has simplified their KYC / added electronic ID verification or still require certified copies of IDs, etc?

butter on Metabox note. One-2 i5-12450H, 64GB DDR4, 2TB SSD, 15.6" FHD IPS 60Hz Laptop $999 + Delivery + Surcharge @ Metabox

Note the 32gb one also "only" has 1tb SSD instead of 2tb. Still a good deal though, and can always add more storage down the track
