Received a $40 coupon from DealExtreme for their recent sale debarcle. Was wondering what would be a good buy now from DX?
Thanks.
What to buy using the DX refund?

The problems on WP make it hard to believe that people still want to buy it. I know you really like your retina screen, but there are other alternatives with less problems. Albeit, bit more expensive.
meh
i have three tablets and a fleet of notebooks… its a toy nothing less
like the rest of us we're overflowing with tech and this isnt my first china tab
its a toy nothing less
Don't you mean it's nothing more than a toy?
If we want an Android tab, wouldn't the Nexus 7" for around $150 at Bing Lee be a better option?
all gone, ozbargained in less than a day!
i personally dont find DX's selection of tablets all that great and they have the worlds worst RMA procedure too
I used my $17 coupon on a THL W8, which brought it down to $181 USD.
And even though it was supposed to be an AU direct item, and is in stock, it still hasn't been shipped yet. Been 6 days already.
Frankly I'm not amused by their incompetence and the only reason I went back shopping was to use up the voucher.
Some things you might consider are USB powerbanks (and 18650 lithium batteries as well, if you need some for Cree torches — I recommend sku 121444)
Bike torches (if you go biking) and Cree torches.Don't bother with their tablets and phones, since their selection is crap and their prices are usually a bit higher than other sellers. Merimobiles or Etotalk is where you should go to if you want the latest China-phones.

Payment verified.
Order is being processed.those sons of bitches
Even if the Nexus 7 isn't always $150 on a great bargain, I would much rather spend a little extra for one than some chinese rip-off. I know a lot of people on here are quite fond of their china tabs, but really the quality difference is just too high for me (my friend learned the hard way).
I would suggest buying something you might need, but really they stock so much random crap that it's hard to suggest just one thing ;)
you just missed out but i got a PD80-HD tablet
$188 - $34 = $154
which isnt $110 i admit but still good for a retina tab
now the interminable wait… been a week already so i doubt its in the country despite their "AU dispatch" slogan
