      If you are using firefox it might be blocked. Try using IE, worked for me on IE not on firefox. (the link provided didnt work on FF)

  • FiDad on 02/06/2010 - 14:18

    Sold Out

  • wallet72 on 02/06/2010 - 14:18

    parts of the site are broken, and the parts that work scream 'teenage kid trying to scam people with Frontpage'

    • lbft on 02/06/2010 - 15:13

      It does look a little off but it's the same mob as 9289.com.au who have been around a while and seem to be pretty decent.

      Even the sender address (I received my cable today) is the same as 9289's.

  • bartracer on 02/06/2010 - 14:18

  • devz on 02/06/2010 - 14:25

    Is it just me, or are other detered by the broken english in the summary of the deal?
    Wont touch this at all, no matter how free, this free cable is.

  • overlook on 02/06/2010 - 14:32

    i will vote when i really receive it also…just ordered one with the sold out

  • rack on 02/06/2010 - 14:37

    what i dont understand is if it's free then why ask for paypal. Why not ask for name and address and sent it over.

    • razza on 02/06/2010 - 14:38
      +1

      cause i guess it is easier to limit it that way otherwise people would be using fake names to get as many free cables as they can.

      • rack on 02/06/2010 - 14:39
        +1

        limit it to 1 per address.

        • lbft on 02/06/2010 - 15:16

          They were probably careless when they built their shopping cart software and didn't allow for free items or assumed that PayPal would work with a $0 amount… then once it was online I suspect they didn't want to re-do it.

          But yeah, limiting by address would've been more sensible.

    • Balls on 02/06/2010 - 14:38

      cause paypal requires contact no. = marketing potential….

  • dragonrabit on 02/06/2010 - 14:40

    it is still work for me, it doesn't say sold out

    • dragonrabit on 02/06/2010 - 23:48

    highly recommend to stay out..

    • mason on 02/06/2010 - 14:57

      yeah just did the same, but also guess no email from paypal as it was a zero $ transaction?

    • Store Repminniewu @ PricesEngine on 02/06/2010 - 15:12
      +1

      Due to Paypal can not accept the payment amount in $0.

      So our website pass by the paypal payment procedure. So we only us your paypal account to verify that you are paypal customer only.

      Don't worry about the personal information. our website will not store your personal information.

      Thanks

  • runforthedeals on 02/06/2010 - 14:43

    Mine says "Purchase payment confirmed. Thank you for shopping with us…"
    No email confirmation though, so don't know if I'll receive the cable.

  • bartracer on 02/06/2010 - 14:47

    looks like when they start charging for other things they will charge Paypal Sucharge

    NOT GOOD

    • Store Repminniewu @ PricesEngine on 02/06/2010 - 15:15

      Yes we will charge PayPal surcharge. But it's depends on the deal we have from our supplier.

      We only charge what PayPal charge us. We will not making any money on the surcharge.

      That is our principle.

      Thanks for your comment.

        You do realise that what you have just stated is against PayPal's terms, right?

      • Pizza The Hut on 02/06/2010 - 17:27

        I think you should just dump paypal and use a proper credit card gateway and have bpay for those who dont have credit card. paypal doesnt give us buyers anymore protection anyway but just increases the costs for everyone.

      • bigosmallo on 02/06/2010 - 17:34

        Are you freakin serious? That is a charge put on you as a seller, not for you to pass it onto your customers.

        How about you start charging us for the hosting and domain cost too.

        • pais on 02/06/2010 - 21:24

          How out of touch with reality can you be? You do realize that all etailers budget for their merchant fees in their pricing and it's standardized across the cost of all items anyway, right? If you're going to have a whinge about it, use bank transfer — you come out ahead. Sheeesh.

  • murtaza on 02/06/2010 - 14:58

  • delfredo on 02/06/2010 - 15:04

    Doesn't it seem strange that it's free (including shipping) and yet you have to log into Paypal? Why can't they just accept your postal details?

  • EdwardWouldWood on 02/06/2010 - 15:04

    Worked for me at 3:04PM using Chrome web browser.

  • ryang on 02/06/2010 - 15:37

    Stock seems to randomly appear if you refresh… Managed to score one, maybe. Unsure as the process wasn't 100%.

    • Roja on 02/06/2010 - 16:25

      Tried it and it went through, looks like some problems with their system. Any as another poster said I won't vote +ve until I actually recieve something

  • bargain_finder on 02/06/2010 - 15:40

    to the team at pricesengine - your website is really badly put together, give your developers some time to test before you start selling …

  • stewartedin on 02/06/2010 - 16:33

    Got one, i think….
    Didnt get A confirmation email though, i got two emails…
    Hmm.. wondering whether will actually receive it though…

    gone

  • camelgrass on 02/06/2010 - 17:36

    If you do a hard refresh (CTRL-F5) a few times, you will eventually see "sold out" change to "1", possibly only momentarily, but if you manage to click on the PayPal logo while it says "1" it will let you order!

    • Orgazmo on 02/06/2010 - 17:43

      tried and shows 1 but still pops up with sold out message

  • TrendyTim on 02/06/2010 - 17:56

    I emailed them about this issue but haven't got a reply yet, i would advise against purchasing from these guys until they get a security flaw fixed which allows you to see other peoples order information (including email, phone and address).

    I told them the exact flaw, but will not repeat it here in order to protect peoples privacy as best as possible.

    Edit: Yep, they finally got rid of the online users part, so now it will be a lot harder to exploit, probably to the point of infeasibility now.

  • GreatWhiteHunter on 02/06/2010 - 18:08

    Site didnt work when I tried - weren't sold out at the time, just overloaded

    • castlino on 02/06/2010 - 18:29

      I would suggest you to email them if you really want to get the free cable.,

  • castlino on 02/06/2010 - 18:15

    Yeah, this is indeed a security flaw from wibiya's toolbar. Just came from the site and the toolbar is now gone. They must have removed it.

        At least within Sydney they seem to use Fastway Couriers.

        Within the same city Fastway can be cheaper than the post office (e.g. 9289 to me probably cost them somewhere between $3.65 and $5.10 depending on their volume.) The downside is that the quality of the service is variable depending on which franchisee covers your delivery address. Mine's great but there's a thread on Whirlpool about people having trouble with theirs.

  • POWERevolution on 03/06/2010 - 13:00
