Must be a price error! Came across this and bought a black and gold! Not going to complain about the 16GB size because it's only 1 dollar! Lol

Don't think that's an accurate analogy though.
With the lottery, your chances of winning is like 1 in 20 million.
Your chances of getting an iphone for $1 is 0.
@DeafMutePretender: At a practical level the sense of "perhaps" is similar. I will concede there is one big difference, if you don't get the phone you don't pay a cent. In that case this is actually a more harmless pursuit as you only waste your time and not your money.
@DeafMutePretender: I am not sure that is how zero probabilities work. Practically is not the case I received my order so it's not zero. It's seems odd that if the practical probability is non-zero but the theoretical is zero.
The theoritical is not zero either. I am not sure how to work it out for this world, it would be small. But even near zero probabilities given an infinite universe or a multiverse will be become a certainty. I like that the P of someone getting an iPhone for a $1* is 1. In fact there are an infinite number of people getting a iPhone for $1. So I am not really that special to get two iPhones for $1 each, but I felt special.
*excluding postage.
Hmm I wouldn't call chasing after a no deal as fun…
People chase things that are a lot more harmful for "fun". Nobody is hurt here and, when the inevitable happens, they can say they gave it a shot. Let them enjoy themselves.
Did you think they made the price error just to buy for a group of who has authorize and forgot to change it back? Most items price stay for goods. How could it happen?
Question 1 : No.
Question 2: Human error.
Honestly hate when people post it here, you just screwed yourself out of deal.
Its an OBVIOUS price error and so no need to post here. Take advantage of it and hope it gets honored.
The only price errors that should be shared is where the price is still reasonable and the supplier will likely honor.
The price would never have been honoured even if only one person ordered it.
Wrong, is has numerous times as the system just ships the product.
Of course if it gets hammered the system picks up on the abnormality.
Do you have proof of this occurrence? A product being discounted to approx 1/1000th of its price.
I hope you all get overcharged.
Managed to get this price matched at Harvey Norman. Picked up a pair for the kids.
oh please…
I got it price matched at Pizza Hut with a free garlic bread.
I can tell you are lying…..I haven't seen a Pizza Hut in ages!

I would've posted the "deal" in the forum in the first place
Damn I was hoping that it wasn't a pricing error. I would have stocked up!
Price is back to $1047 now. Nice try though. :D
Not sure which price is more ridiculous…
Just wondering does anyone get their orders?
Still no word on mine.
I got my refunds on Monday without even an email apologising.
just received the following:
Please call our Customer Service Line on 1300 633 423 regarding your above Officeworks Order.
There was a system error on Saturday morning regarding the advertisement rice of Apple IPhone, unfortunately we cannot fulfil this order for you.
We need you to call us back so we can provide you with a full refund of $8.95 on the following credit transaction,
i didn't think i would get them but was worth a shot being the silly season
Anyone else successful?
You have successfully got it?
Yes. :-)
You'r really lucky! Cheers
Just wondering how many do you received? :)
Yeah I was one of the lucky few apparently. Thanks OP! Selling it on Gumtree was a nice little Christmas boost to the budget. Managed to pick up a 34 inch LG ultrawide monitor from MSY with part of the proceeds, and the missus got some nonsense from Pandora that kept her happy at Xmas.
I don't know why people bother posting "deals" like this - everyone knows it won't happen
@eisniwre: You naughty boy tempting me. I will look during the sales over Christmas.
