I received an email from these guys, MegaBuy, and as usual, i did a quick google. the price seems good and i also found a one-month old post on ozbargain for the same airport. that deal was marked as expired.

i will possibly get one this time, but wait for more comments first.

note:
i guess they do have some stock this time.

    Yep, make sure they have stock this time…

    If you want quick, easy and reliable they're good value. Bought one in the last sale to replace an old 2nd gen model. It's now a client to the new 5th gen with all the devices in my media room hanging off the 2nd gen. Works like a charm, configured in 30 seconds flat.

    Shopbot and Statice cheapest is still $179 so not bad i guess.

    EDIT: Check this, might be a better deal. Same Price with extras.

      You gain a 4GB flash drive, but lose free delivery. Delivery for me is $15.95, so unless you can pick up, it's a worse deal.

      • Jorkus on 27/08/2013 - 15:14

        Oh, well spotted. disregard that part of my comment.

      • hashtagbargain on 27/08/2013 - 15:24

        Just the first look of that site and I feel I'm already covered in spam :/

  • Devil on 27/08/2013 - 16:01

    • Gomo on 27/08/2013 - 19:12

      Pickup Allowed?

      • Store RepMegaBuy @ MegaBuy on 27/08/2013 - 19:16

        Yes, but they wont be in store til later in the week (all in our warehouse) - if you go in after Thursday and reference OZB - no problem.

        Tell them Sam R said so :)

        • Gomo on 27/08/2013 - 22:13

          Alright thanks for the heads up :) I tried to go through the website to pay and pickup later but it says I can't, so I guess just call the store make sure they have stock then pay / pickup?

        • Store RepMegaBuy @ MegaBuy on 28/08/2013 - 11:02

          they should be in tomorrow - email me, [email protected] - ill confirm for you

  • katz on 27/08/2013 - 16:20

    Whats the different between this and the newer AP Extreme? Is it just that this one does not support AC?

    • MELso on 27/08/2013 - 17:15

      Yup - this does 3 stream 802.11n only, with up to 450mbps.

    SLOW POST - take 1 month to receive the item and received a refurbished item

    • Gav on 27/08/2013 - 17:07

      Please note that this item does not list its condition (brand new, refurbished, etc.) nor it's warranty. Buyer beware!

      • MELso on 27/08/2013 - 17:15

        My one from the previous offer (when it eventually came 19 days after ordering, despite being promised delivery within 4 days) was brand new and came with Apple warranty…

      • mini_wombat on 27/08/2013 - 17:27

        As nothing is mentioned you should expect a new one. Apple is most likely cleaning them out.

    • mrdevil on 27/08/2013 - 18:24

      I'll agree with this - last two orders I placed for items showing "IN STOCK" sat on order for a couple of weeks … until I asked where they were. Both times were told "we had no stock", and they magically arrived a few days later (one took over a month from date of ordering).

      They might be cheap, but their delivery times & customer service are a joke!

    • Store RepMegaBuy @ MegaBuy on 27/08/2013 - 19:17

      They are brand new… :) - they are also in stock.

  • mini_wombat on 27/08/2013 - 16:30

    Great … thanks … just ordered one. Was in the market for a new AP Extreme with AC … but for this price I run the previous version. (I still run V2 at the moment … so time for an upgrade).

  • skinny on 27/08/2013 - 17:45

    Never seen any Apple product less than $100, so bought one! Now I need to know how/what to use?

    Bloody OZBargainers!

  • aec on 27/08/2013 - 18:03

    NOOOOOOOOOO
    i posted the deal and then forgot about it for a while. now it is all gone

    anyway as long as my post is useful to others, i am fine.

    • Store RepMegaBuy @ MegaBuy on 27/08/2013 - 19:18

      not all gone - plenty left. :)

      • aec on 27/08/2013 - 20:10

        good, i will transfer the money then.

  • stevelo on 27/08/2013 - 18:49

    What does this provide if i already have a modem/router? A apple brand dual-band routher?

    • Jorkus on 27/08/2013 - 19:41

      If you have a router/modem combo, then you'll now only have a router for starters.

    • Store RepMegaBuy @ MegaBuy on 28/08/2013 - 15:30

    Perfect timing! NBN installed yesterday and looking for a wireless router.

    It performed equal best in this test of NBN ready routers.

    Order placed. Thanks OP!

  • Associatedzslc @ MegaBuy on 28/08/2013 - 13:09

    Hi guys,
    Is this a router only or with modem function?

    • FernandoWho on 28/08/2013 - 13:54

      It is a router

      • Associatedzslc @ MegaBuy on 28/08/2013 - 14:19

        Thanks mate.
        And is it for apple device or all wifi devices?

        • MELso on 28/08/2013 - 15:50

          All wi-fi devices…

  • Gomo on 29/08/2013 - 21:07

    Thanks guys :) Got mine today :)

  • theguru1 on 31/08/2013 - 09:04

    Was going to buy, but no free shipping.

    • shinryoku on 31/08/2013 - 12:47

      Yeh how did the others get free shipping?

  • Store RepMegaBuy @ MegaBuy on 03/09/2013 - 10:19

    • shinryoku on 04/09/2013 - 20:14

    It's on again :P

    check my graphs to see how my unit is performing :) http://gomoau.no-ip.org/export/Routers_Apple_Airport_Extreme…

    • katz on 03/09/2013 - 14:13

      impressive, I see some tall peaks and….. stuff! Mind explaining how its better than your previous router?

      Im thinking of replacing my Telstra provided Cable WIFI modem with this (wifi only) - im hoping its a heap better with Wifi throughput and strength.

      • Gomo on 03/09/2013 - 20:24

        This replaced a Buffalo WZR-HP-G300NH, I'm finding that the ADSL sync between the airport to be alot more stable, plus the advantage I now have a 5Ghz WiFi Network perfect for the mac book I have, speeds will be alot quicker :)

        Pretty impressed for the $99 price tag,

    I am very disappointed on Airport Extreme Base Station which failed working on the delivery day. I went to the Apple store apple store yesterday morning and apple genius bar diagnosed that lagging wireless IO downstream and upload average to 1.02 Mbps behind ADSL2+. i can't even open internet pages smoothly. this unit is not fit its purpose. i wrote cup of email to Megbuy. also spoken the the return staff this morning who is very rude on the phone. they are very reluctant to issue me authorisation return number so, i have no chose take this matter to CTTT. I will never buy anything form MegaBuy agin which is bad business ethics and poor return policy.
