      Enough for me for now, time to go.

    well i managed to put my order through bpay…Though i'm not sure if that ensures me getting a laptop xD Its a lot better than COTD, at least it goes through slowly and they have more than 100units.

      I appreciate the fact that the MLN guy spent hours in this forum trying to reply to all of us, let's see if he appreciates the THOUSANDS of hours spent by the ozbargainers trying to follow the thread, refresh/access his site and wait at the line in front of the shops to finally just find unchanged prices!

    • DingoBilly on 26/12/2010 - 04:48

      Some of these prices are incorrect. For example, the Samsung G3 1TB is $49 (I bought one just before, and you can check the website).

      This list was probably compiled before they finished changing all the prices, so just be aware these aren't 100% accurate.

          Prices not changing at midnight is inexcusable when you've pumped everyone up for 72 hours before the sale.

          How hard can it be to update your prices at 12 midnight?

        • Store Repfastandthecurious @ MLN on 26/12/2010 - 07:46

          Obviously very hard,
          even the ozbargain website went down for a bit,
          our sitedid not just have the ozbargain community on it, it had alot more other people as well.
          I am not aware of how changes can be made to a site, when it is down, down means its not working its not accepting changes.
          inexcusable?
          Not possible when a website is down.
          I didnt pump you? I told you about a deal, which was available for everyone to benefit from.
          Sorry for answering your questions

          Clearly everyone seems to know how the MLN website operates and functions better than the staff here and they also know more than what I know about our website.

    My advice, go to bed guys, get up in the morning & give it a go…as the rep has said, they have stock in the tens of thousands, most people should do fine! Besides, if you don't get what you want this sale, que sera, sera…there's always gonna be another somewhere else! ;)

    IOMEGA 500GB only $48 ($1 cheaper than MLN)
    Samsung 3.5" 1.5TB only $64 ($1 cheaper than MLN)

    • BarginHunter on 26/12/2010 - 01:55

      Because centrecom is closed till the 5th of January so by the time you receive your order prices for the advertised products would have become the normal retail price :D

  • kcyw on 26/12/2010 - 01:20

    The line at the Heidelberg store was moving at snail pace, maybe 3 minutes per customer, so there should be plenty left for online sales.

    They should have made it sales online available for pickup at a later date…

    MLN,
    I know these things can happen but this was certainly a negative withdrawal from my Goodwill account for MLN !

      Guys I realise some companies are trying to feed on our offers,
      we do not have 200 drives available at a stunt price.
      Any computer business that is decent enough in size, can sell a couple of hundred drives below a competitors price so they can discredit their competition.
      We have thousands available,
      this is why our deals are available in store as well as online, and our competitors may list a few units for sale at a price $1-2 less than us to discredit our sales. this is why it is not available instore for them, but rather just online as there is no stock.
      Please consider why its being offered right now, at the same time as our genuine sale is being conducted.
      Credit card fees
      and shipping costs

      Its very easy to sell a hard drive $2 less than someone else but then charge $10 more for postage.

        With all due respect, please do not forget that time is money, waiting/spending hours just to refresh your site/prices etc actually costs more than 10 $(without even considering that it's boxing day's wasted time)
