    $78? Other than being Full HD at such a large size, what's wrong with it?

      mis-price

      With a tuner attached, yes.

      🎉First win the OzBargain lottery here🎉

      Then add a set-top box or PVR for TV 📺
      Add a Chromecast or other devices for streaming & smart TV functions.
      Maybe a HDMI switcher to select inputs…
      You can dream😯

      • [Deactivated] on 20/09/2016 - 13:03

        Lol couldnt even order, wasn't working on mobile site or desktop as the cart kept on refreshing well before these went out of stock… Oh well, didn't need one anyway :P

          😢 Ordered 1 easily on phone for c&c.
          If I win… will replace smaller monitor set up as as above 📺 in bedroom. That's a big if❕
          Still, I can dream - an OzBargain dream.

          I'd like to know too, is it an option I've overlooked with Paypal??

        • spackbace on 20/09/2016 - 11:51

          Had the offer a couple of years ago now, not sure if they still offer it

          It's good for stuff that will likely get refunded because you don't have the money come and go

          So this transaction won't get pulled from my account until October 11 :)

          https://www.paypal.com/myaccount/settings/payments

          Pay After Delivery

          Take it for a spin before you pay for it. Pay After Delivery lets you shop now and pay 21 days later without using a credit card.

          Do you have that option showing on yours?

        • nickj on 20/09/2016 - 13:33

          @Spackbace: No, I don't have that option. It sounds useful, esp for items likely to be cancelled, or very slow to ship.

        • Scab on 20/09/2016 - 13:51

          The option has to be provided by the seller.

      • x853 on 20/09/2016 - 12:33

        I used my Amex card. So i heop I atleast get points - then even if I am refunded I should br able to keep the points right?

          If that was the case then everyone would be buying heaps of shit and refunding it. But we can always dream of that happening

        • x853 on 20/09/2016 - 19:10

          @illumination: Dang. Well then I hope I get the monitor then

    Not going to bite since it's an obvious pricing error, but I'll be damned jealous if someone actually gets Officeworks to honour the deal!

      If I go into my OfficeWorks account, there is nothing under My Orders section :(

  • moto on 20/09/2016 - 11:50

    Thanks OP. Only waiting for the dreaded news if it's cancelled. Compared to my $200'ish LG 1080p Ultrawide. My Ultrawide is 30w and this one's 40w. Not sure if it's more power consumption. Positive vote for cheap price. It will replace my 1600x900 second monitor.

    • moto on 21/09/2016 - 17:17

      Order Cancelled.. From my email.

      Officeworks Ltd has just sent you a partial refund of $78.00 AUD for your purchase.
      It may take 3-5 business days to receive the refund in your PayPal account.

      Description:Purchase from Officeworks Ltd | Unit Price:$70.91 AUD | Qty:1 | Amount:$70.91 AUD
      I think I had a few spare change in my Paypal account wallet before. Hoping I receive the full $78 dollar amount back…

    Good price op. Thanks
    But don't waste your money if you don't need a terrible monitor. 1080p for such a size is terrible and no doesn't give you any more space than a small 14" 1080p. You don't get the space from size but the resolution. So I get more space in my phone than this 31" monitor.
    Monitors are highly overrated and expensive. A 4k, 24" should be around $100. Its just a chassis and a board from 30 years ago and the screen.

    • pork chop on 20/09/2016 - 12:18

      Whatever!…

    • bargaino on 20/09/2016 - 12:38

      It works well at around 1 metre viewing distance.
      For some people, that will mean no reading glasses needed, unlike a smaller monitor.

    • ozhunter68 on 20/09/2016 - 13:42

      True, but still a nice large screen for those who don't expect everything to be cutting edge.
