Update:

http://dx.com/mayhalfprice?utm_source=dx&utm_medium=cdn&utm_…

According to this, they will be rotating the deals throughout the day (800 SKUs with total quantity of 40,000) to cover a bunch of other products too. Check back whenever you can to see if theres anything new!

Update 2:

http://dx.com/mayhalfprice/Default/ShoppingList

They have pushed out another list of more items! It does verify the theory that the initial page was for DX AU deliveries whilst this is the International 50% off section. Please be aware that there will be longer delivery times for this since it needs to be shipped directly from China as opposed to the DX AU (which apparently has warehouse in Perth).

Update 3:
Offer is pretty much officially "Ozbargained" with the only remaining stock to be either very specialist products (Spare battery for product x), Seasonal products (Christmas), or stuff that not many people want. The only thing I am hoping for is that they can fulfill all orders so everyone is happy.

DX has subtly stated however, (Broken English) "If the customers who participate in this activity are more than expected which results in lack of product supply, we have to process refund for the oversold items, please kindly understand." which may account for some people's Paypals reported refunded against.

Update 4:

Have to apologise in advance to anyone who doesnt get the stock for this deal. Despite being the OP and putting the order through before others, I have now received a cancellation against my two orders (W8 and PD10). It is seemingly like a lottery to get stock. Very very disappointed. :(

Update 5:

After a disappointing weekend, DX has now come back to affected customers with a voucher that's worth 15% of the original total order. So, if your order was $200, then they will give you back $30 worth as a rebate in compensation to be used in DX. Apparently the stock is still available - but not it has changed to a different SKU but they are offering 15% off the original price. This is pretty beneficial if your original order was expensive (and hence you can get back a higher rebate value) - but typically most would only have done a $200 order with $30 rebated.

The new link is here: http://dx.com/l/au-direct/2013-02/special-items.aspx

As you can see, the deal is nowhere near as good as before. However, it is up to you as an individual to see if it is still good value enough to continue making the purchases.

    Bought a PD80-HD for myself and a Ditter V12 for a mate.

    Wanted a 10" tab for a while and this was way to good to pass up. The V12 will stop my mate complaining that the video files I give him wont play on his tv's built in media centre.

    Cheers.

    • how will he control the ditter?

      • +1

        I was thinking cheap wireless mouse/kb but now you have me thinking I wonder if I could make it boot directly to xbmc and then just use the android xbmc remote app on his phone via the wireless network.

        Probably end up with both though, why limit it to media when you could be web browsing on your tv for a few bucks extra.

        • I think there is an android app to control the device in the same way.

  • +2

    Just when I thought I was out… Ozbargains pulls me back in.

  • +1

    In my orders - I found this is the same company where I and lot of people here bought $20 android tv stick, paid and got money refunded after 2-3 weeks. Hope that doesn't happen again to these freelanders or ditter. I'm not shopping again at DX if this happen !

  • PD80-HD sold out

  • I am getting this when I check out, why is that? I only ordered one item THL W8.

    0x80091003: Some items' quantity exceeds their sales limit. Place order failed.

    • It's sold out

      • ok thanks. I should have checked out quicker. Hopefully it will be in stock again.

  • ALL ITEMS SOLD OUT

  • Hi guys, for those who missed the deal on MK808B, is this one cheaper on eBay?
    http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/5x-Android-4-1-1-Smart-TV-BOX-MK8…

    Or they are different?

    • That looks like FRAUD. I wouldn't buy it.. Someone definitely knows about MK808 popularity so quick money. Happens all the time. See feedback (5), not worth the risk.

      • I guess you are right. Thanks.

  • are these Tablets coming with Australian plugs? or do we need to use converter?

  • omg was about to purchase the W8 and it's sold out! been Ozbargained again :(

  • Any quad core 7 inch tablets , similar to the iPad mini for $50-60 after discount, any recommendations?

  • Good stuff is sold out :( Anyone know when new items will be pushed out?

    • +4

      Yeah, any news on this next wave? I have the bloodlust now.

      • Interestingly enough - the International site is saying "May 15th - May 20th".

        Who knows if they will do up another batch tomorrow or later?

        • From FB Page

          It will end on May 20, bit it also end when the items are all sold out.

    • agreed.. :(

  • +4

    Yeah hopefully more memory cards. realised too late after buying tablets that a memory card would be useful. 32gb for $15 woulda been a nice score

  • Just managed to contact DX and chat with their rep. Fill the form suggesting them to sell Ainol and 10" tablet in the near future. Hope they will listen!

    • Did you ask them if they are going to have more stock before the promotion ends?

      • Nope. You can ask them using the LIVE CHAT. Quick response!

  • Is the DITTER V12 not good enough to stream HD movies from home NAS because of the lack of wireless N?
    How fast is wireless G on this device?

    • From eBay or other sites that selling V12, i can see it supports b/g/n, a typo?!

      • +2

        I am pretty sure they all have the same wireless chip. So whether it says n or not I don't think you r gonna see the difference.

        Its the same case as those battery amps they show for every tablet. Thats never correct, they might claim 8000mh but they all pretty much last the same from my experience.

        People here disregarded v12 for mk808 because of wrless n. I bet you, it will be the same. Remember, its not samsung or apple or htc where they have to have everything precise. Its generic and chinese gadgets are know to be deceptive in some specs.

  • have been failed

  • Looks like most have sold out

  • +2

    Damn,
    emptied the piggy bank of a few months worth of impulse gadgets budget in an hour.
    Must hide credit card statement from the wife. Harder to hide a 10" tablet though.

    • I confessed yesterday. - and more I won't say -

    Already had 2 Nexus 7, iPad 2, Note 10.1, just purchased another PD30 and PD80.
    Really have no idea what I gonna use them for, it's just the replies here and over 300+ votes made me buying them.

    • +14

      Just shows how gullible you are.

    • +1

      Ha Ha Ha I'm not alone. Acer Iconia A500, Nexus7, and now exactly the same Tablets as you.
      For exactly the same reason: "I cannot miss out again on an offer like this"
      Now trying to justify why I need 2 more tablets …..

  • order being canceled! something wrong?

    • which items have been cancelled?

  • +2

    Their servers haven't melted down. COTD could learn something from DX, it seems.

    • It was hammered earlier.

      • Yeah It Was Down For A little

        • +8

          not bad considering their target market is the whole world, vs cotd's Australia-only target.

  • I bought a FREELANDER PD80-HD 9.7", will I need an EU to AU adapter?

    • You can charge it with any USB port.

      If you got a iPod/iPad power plug you can possibly use that if you want to use mains. They shouldn't cost anymore than $5 on eBay.

      • +1

        I thought these were using those nokia-like chargers? The slim round ones.

        • These cheap tablets often have both - a round plug to charge off mains, and a microUSB or miniUSB port to charge by USB.

          At least that's how it is on my Ainol Aurora II.

        • As Passa mentioned it might be both but you can defiantly charge it via USB.

          http://img.dxcdn.com/productimages/sku_197249_5.jpg

        • But under the specifications it says:
          "Charge Methods - Power adapter"

          Whereas for the PD30 said "Power adapter or USB cable"

        • Yes, don't take it as a forgone conclusion that it would charge via USB. I did a bit of research looking into cheap tablets last week or so and many of them DO NOT charge over USB. The micro/mini USB port on these tablets is an interface port rather than a charging port.

        • http://club.dx.com/reviews/text/197249/394989

          Cons:
          The tablet can not be charged from the microUSB port. The screen has bubbles in the glue but only on the edges, not on the visible screen. The battery is not 8000 mAh.

  • Any thoughts on this since the Ditter V12 seems to be sold out as well now? It seems to be an older model, but comes with a wireless mouse:
    http://dx.com/p/ditter-r8-android-4-0-google-tv-player-w-wir…

    • SOLD OUT

    • Thats sold out too. I reckon keep an eye on for the new wave of HDMI Smart TV sticks. For $65 you can get a HDMI stick that is Quad Core RK3188 at 1.6Ghz, 2gigs of RAM, 8gigs of flash memory, Android 4.2 with Bluetooth 3.0 and B/G/N Wifi capabilities.

      Keep in mind the Ditter doesn't have Wireless N or Bluetooth.

    Think many of u guys have no idea about the tabs, seems whatever gets posted becomes sold out, some of those links have very inferior tablets.

    • +2

      what would you expect for a $35 tablet?

      • Yep, I got the $35 tablet as well. I don't expect much from it, but I"m only going to use it for pdf reading for my uni textbooks.
        Other than that , my phone can do the rest

    • +6

      me thinks someone is a little jelly :P

      • +2

        lol. hes kinda right you know. alot of people wouldve just been impulsing buying, adding to cart whatever wasnt sold out/they could get their hands on… i woke up around 5-6am and spent a few hours researching which tablet to get:/ i think what hes getting at is that not many people were making informed buying decisions and just rushing to get whatever… OR hes just a bit jelly as you say ;)

        ill even out his neg.

  • oh no, oh no, what can I buy, is the quad-core phone still in-stock?!!

    • sold out

  • The onda tablet was the best one. Missed out though…

    • I don't think the Onda tablet was part of the sale.

      • Only the dual core V711. It was just sold out.

  • So are any tablets still half price? Confused by 'sold out' and still full price items. Just after a tablet (even super average ones). What's still 50% off? Thanks kindly :)

    • +1

      many tablets in the sale were probably sold out by now. they lasted for a while but the demand was incredible. I would think they probably just tried to clear the warehouse in order to minimise the inventory cost.

    • Yes overpriced single core tablets with 512mb ram still half price.. But they are nearly a expensive as a quad core tablet with 2GB ram when discounted so go figure.

  • Hmm.. decision, decision, decision..

  • I've received a weird email from dx asking me to send a photocopy of credit card and transaction record on PayPal.. I am being suspicious now.. Anyone else who received the same sort of email??

  • I think it's safe to say this has officially been ozbargained… all the decent phones, tablets, android sticks and battery packs are cleared out.

    • Yep totally !, also any update on ur item ?, hope it gets processed and sent tomorrow… :S

  • Yeah……move on from AU site……why have they not updated it to SOLD OUT?

  • Waiting on next batch of items. Still much left in my 'EOFYS' stash of cash!

    • I talked to their live chat and they said no more items released

      • +1

        I guess thats good, moulah saved for something even better that may come onto OzB soon….?

  • -3

    When do you reckon next batch…per day?

    • There is no 'next batch'.
      Sale ends on the 20th or when all stock is cleared, whichever comes first

  • .

  • darnit, alrite guys
    just buy first and ask later

    missed out on alot :(

    Hi..just wondering.
    Is this correct that the phone's weight is 1kg?

  • Finally pulled the trigger on the Ditter V12 MK809. It is cheaper than buying a wi fi dongle for my Pana. Hoping it works.

  • Ordered a Freelander PD10UP and another item earlier today. Just got a paypal refund for the amount of the tablet. The tablet isn't even showing in my order history any more. No email or explanation why :(

    • :(

    • They probably oversold… no stock, so cancelling orders.

      My order is still in the processing stage.. it was bought 2AM this morning.

      • my status is payment received and confirmed.

  • +2

    got the THL W8 before it sold out earlier today!

    • +5

      They better not cancel any of my order. I'll be furious if I miss out on the stuff I really don't need and only bought because it was so cheap.

      • Yeah same here mate was going to get a UK to AU adapter but I'll wait and see if they cancel or process my order first. The THL W8 can be charged through USB right?

  • Does anyone know what are the available free TV channels on this Android stick such as mk808 or Ditter V12?

    My wife like to watch Korean/Asian Drama, just curious if those are also avail on this stick.

    Last year I was interested to buy ROKU but then I cancelled because it seems only a few free TV channels available if ROKU is used in Oz.

    Many thanks.

    • with these sticks, there are many apps you can install to watch those dramas.

  • Damm it . I did 3 orders using different cards and now gotta provide them verification for all of them.. Bit of hassle really. Why didn't I chose paypal ?
