Nice deal but I still don't like Shopping Square :P
Nearly NEARLY bought one of these about 2 weeks ago direct from Lenovo, they were going for about about 650 before you started fiddling around with warranties. They've since disappeared from the Lenovo Australia website so I guess a few companies like Shopping Square have gotten hold of the remaining stock at a discount. I was about to buy one when until I realised that a woman at the office had one. I had a play around with it and despite the size and great battery the screen was a deal breaker for me; just a little bit too narrow.
Good deal if you want an ultraportable and you're willing to take a chance on the life of the thing (no mention of a warranty on the site that I can see at least).
The same Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 13 with i3-380UM is at $679 listed price (+ whatever the current discount is). What ShoppingSquare is offering is quite cheap. The closest replacement model — the new Edge 220 with 12.5" LCD, won't be this cheap for a while.
I was looking around for a deal on this exact laptop actually, but shoppingsquare is a dealbreaker for me. Dont want to have to deal with them for warranty and whatnot.
Edit: Also 2% cashback translates to a further $12 off.
nice deal of u want UM cpu and portable
