        Yea just realized that 2 sec after, but you replied before I could edit my comment. $79 is for the 500GB My Passport Essential SE version.

  • BrianGriffin on 04/11/2010 - 17:44

    Woo, good looking

  • anthony on 04/11/2010 - 17:58

    Cheapest is $99 on statice

  • delfredo on 04/11/2010 - 18:10

    Will OW beat this by 5%?

    • Associatedchako012 @ Bing Lee on 04/11/2010 - 22:28

      diff model :)

      • delfredo on 05/11/2010 - 00:00

        Doesn't OW stock elite models? If they do, and Bing Lee has them in stock, wouldn't OW honour the lowest price guarantee?

        • anthony on 05/11/2010 - 00:09

          OW is going to look at the shipping cost and add that onto the price binglee are selling the drive for before taking off the 5%.
          Once you add on $10 for delivery and then take off 5% you will be paying $94

        • delfredo on 05/11/2010 - 19:29

          Anthony - If this is available in store at Bing Lee, why would OW add on shipping cost?

        • anthony on 05/11/2010 - 19:49

          If you cannot drive to binglee and pick the item up yourself then OW factor in the cost it will be for you to have the item delivered.

          I dont know where you live but if binglee is in the same city as you then OW will not add in the shipping cost as you can drive to binglee and collect the drive.

          If you live in another city/state then you cannot buy the drive from binglee for $89, it will cost you $99 to buy the drive. So this is the price OW match.

          But the drive has now sold out and is not available from binglee so you can not price match to binglee any more.

        • delfredo on 06/11/2010 - 02:08

          Oh OK. I forgot that Bing Lee does not have a nationwide presence. :)

  • [Deactivated] on 04/11/2010 - 18:18

    waiting for 2.5 1TB to be under $100. Probably not too far.

    • esq on 04/11/2010 - 18:25

      For a basic model, probably maybe. We are definitely talking post-christmas to 2011 end of financial year kinda timeframe.

  • esq on 04/11/2010 - 18:26

    Shipping is what kills it for me.

      I do not have a binglee account so cannot check to see if it works, it seems that it might not.

      The post was deleted because "OP failed to declare they are a marketer" http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/33561
      Not sure why someone for binglee would want to post an invalid code.

      • esq on 04/11/2010 - 19:10

        Thanks champ, will try out later tonight.

        Edit: Coupon didn't work, guess it expired.

          try calling customer service on 1300 980 399 - they should be able to get your free shipping happening for you

  • blue-bear on 04/11/2010 - 20:43

    i picked up a 640gb elite drive today from bing lee for $99! :D

    • esq on 04/11/2010 - 21:35

      Can you please upload a receipt? I'll try and pricematch it at Officeworks.

    $79 at office work, Just got this one today

    • delfredo on 04/11/2010 - 21:29

      Is it the Elite model?

      • Associatedchako012 @ Bing Lee on 04/11/2010 - 22:27

        No the office works one is not the elite model because the product code is not right and it does not come with the dock.

  • Leviiathan on 04/11/2010 - 22:14

    Blue > Red

    =P

    • Associatedchako012 @ Bing Lee on 04/11/2010 - 22:27

      elite>non-elite model :)

      • Cripto on 05/11/2010 - 00:28

        i like the red colour, do you think these will get any cheaper in the future? since most portables are getting cheaper? or should i buy now

        • anthony on 05/11/2010 - 09:33

          Everything will always keep getting cheaper but if you keep waiting for it to become cheaper you will never buy one.

          If you want one then buy it now! :-)

        • illusionarybreeze on 05/11/2010 - 09:46

          Well, they'll probably get cheaper because they're locked into usb 2.0, if anything.

      • Leviiathan on 05/11/2010 - 09:36

        True.

        Though there is an elite version in blue.. OW sells it for $149. :(

        It's kind of annoying in situations such as this bargain for the red version to be someone where color makes all the difference!

        Everything must be blue.

        :)

  • Associatedchako012 @ Bing Lee on 04/11/2010 - 22:26

    Guys if you haven't noticed the officeworks one is a different model. The one Bing Lee is selling is the My Passport "elite" Model. The differences are:

    • The docking station
    • Capacity Gauge
    • More awesomeness

    The Western digital website is selling this same elite model for $119 USD so I think we got a pretty good deal!

    http://products.wdc.com/library/matrix/eng/4178-705076.pdf

    Check this PDF to view the range. The one office-works has is the lower end model which is why it is cheaper and does not come with the dock. Also if the free shipping code is not working for you try calling the customer service number they are pretty happy to assist you.

    • abbz0id on 04/11/2010 - 22:40

      OW has the "elite" model.

      Why didn't you put the full name of the product in the title…? Would help with the confusion. Nowhere in your description in the OP even mentions the specific model.

      WD My Passport Elite 500gb $89

      It's just one more word.

      • diddy50 on 05/11/2010 - 08:46

        and it was a rep as well, think they would know how to post or read the rules…. tsk tsk tsk

  • CyberMurning on 05/11/2010 - 09:14

    SO COOL
    i want the red one :(
    already have 2.5" 500gb and 3.5" 1TB

    • Leviiathan on 05/11/2010 - 09:33

      You can never have too much portable data storage.

    • esq on 05/11/2010 - 12:17
