Waterford "London" Desktop Bar. >50% off. $9,995 (Was $20,995). David Jones in-Store Only

6480

This BARGAIN was tucked away near the lifts on Level 4 at David Jones, Market Street, Sydney.

A bit of digging on the interwebs suggests this might be the cheapest price in the world at the moment. In the UK, they sell for around GBP10,500 and Stateside for around USD11,000. And this is genuine Aussie stock, so you don't have to fap about with mains power and/or plug conversions (mains power needed for the illuminated crystal side panels).

General product information here: http://www.waterford.com/london-desktop-bar

The Waterford "London" desktop includes:

  • 4 x leather coasters (a nice upgrade from the cardboard ones borrowed from the local RSL)
  • 1 x 33cm square metal drink tray with leather insert (doubles as a lapdesk for your notebook)
  • 1 x London Square Decanter (will easy hold a bottle of Aldi whisky)
  • 1 x London Round Decanter (and this for your Jack Daniels)
  • 2 x London Tumblers/DOFs (perfect for bourbon and Coke)
  • 2 x London Hi-Balls (Milo and milk has never looked classier!)

EDIT - Six (6) units in stock at 1.20pm 20Mar16
EDIT - Three (3) units in stock at 5.45pm 24Mar16

    • lol try carrying this thing through with you to be inspected. You're supposed to have the item in your carry on.. maybe it can just be your carry on. Might be possible if you can fold it up? LOL

      • Well you not packing anything with you, just that, go for same day round trip to save $500+, hoping the box is carry on size ;) LOL

  • Thanks OP! I bought one after I saw the price on this website! bargains like this don't come often!

    Yeah I dont know if u bought the glasses and decanters seperately and then got a cabinet which wouldnt necessarily have to be a waterford cabinet bcos its probably not clearly marked its waterford so no one would probably know anyway. Do all that thinking it would be cheaper. Personally seems pretty expensive to me. Id prefer to just buy a second car…

  • Boomramada correct me if i'm wrong but don't you have to bring the product to the airport with you to get the GST refund?? I guess you could always pack the London Desktop Bar in your suitcase.

    • Don't put it on checked luggage or it will be "Shattered" ;)

  • +2

    I would expect a lifetime supply of alcohol for that price

    Just to give you an idea of pricing, you can buy a decanter set that includes a decanter and two whisky glasses for $749 with $9.95 postage off of the Waterford Australia website. Its currently out of stock at the moment, but you can click on 'notify me when its back in stock' and if theres people after it theyll put it back on the website - https://www.waterfordcrystal.com.au/waterford-crystal-dungar…

    The London decanters are $449 each on the Waterford website and Im sure you could hunt down the London glasses somewhere to match -

    Ah its kind of a rip off imo

    • -3

      It's beyond a rip-off. It's hilarious.
      But it doesn't stop 589 votes, 23,785 tirekicking clicks.
      Mob mentality.

      • Someone is trying hard to look smarter that the rest…

        Well you are better than the rest. Does that make you feel better?

        • Huh??

  • +1

    Being a desktop bar, would a pricematch at Officeworks be likely?

    Reported this deal. This is not really a deal. Appears to be a joke post and should be in the forums.

    • I disagree with you. It is a legitimate deal (I challenge you to find one, new, anywhere else in the world for less). It is not a joke post. It's disappointing to see OzBargain voting guidelines being ignored/abused just because you don't "get" the deal on offer. Refer https://www.ozbargain.com.au/wiki/help:voting_guidelines

      • +6

        The only reason your deal is still up is because those very same guidelines are being inconsistently ignored by the mods…here's what they had to say in the Rolls Royce post:

        MOD: Despite this being a bargain to very selected few, forum is where a joke post belongs to

        There was nothing less salient about that deal than this one.

        Good old OzB moderation, the only thing consistent is the inconsistency…

        @OzDJ_

        At least you didn't report this guy, and get his vote revoked, like you did all the others. That's a relief.

    • why did you use the word appears.

  • +1

    But .. why doesn't it have space to put my scones, tea set and butterdish?

    It's a no from me.

  • I am keen to make a purchase but I think it is a price error and they may not honor it.

  • Where Broden at?

    • Still stuck on the Weber ebay deal…

  • +2

    Surely they will be out of stock by now. Over 22000 Clicks and only 6 in stock. ;)

    • That would depend on finding half a dozen idiots with more money than either sense or taste…

    • I expect they're down to about six left by now. So get in quick if you wanna grab one.

  • +2

    I won't get this on the grounds that it doesn't come with alcohol…not a frickin' drop!!!

  • +1

    Do you have to pay Luxury Tax on this ??? … rolling in laughter … on Oz Bargain … hahahahaha

  • +1

    "…don't have to fap about with mains power" Indeed sounds dangerous doing it anywhere near mains power or the expensive crystal! ;-)

    I got 50% off a packet of peanuts. I'm wrapped! Same - Same

    This post getting 600 votes, and all the Neg votes removed, has made me want to find another online activity and community, with better priorities in life.
    So, goodbye to all the nice people here, I'm gone.

      RUOK Bargitrage?

    • What a rager.

      good riddance.

        I bet he's still be checking OzB for the deals. :)

    • Missing you already.

    • You can just leave. No need to announce it…

  • I'm surprised they actually have something like this on display in the store!

  • wow, xmas comes early.

  • Thanks for the post just bought 9.

  • Baaaa baaaaa, I'll vote positive too

  • Thanks for posting, rushing out after I finish my shift at Maccas to get myself one of these.

  • +2

    I like how this deal is getting upvoted for the comedic value :D

  • You would definitely not want to forget to do CR for this deal..

  • +2

    Got one for the ute. thanks

    • consider it pimped!

  • I can't afford not to get one.

  • I want one. How many dole cheques is that?

  • Ask one of " the real housewives of Melbourne " to buy it. Most of them are feather headed no brains with too much of husbands money to spend, or money gained through their own way of earning it ( say no more )

  • I will buy this for somebody, somebody who can suck it.
