Was in Officeworks tonight and was speaking to a lovely lady who showed me a Laser 4GB MP4 player for only $4.45. Have uploaded receipt and photo of the unit.

Specs off the box:
Q13-MP4 Player
4GB Multimedia Player
Video/Music/Photo playback
FM Radio
Built-in Speaker

1.8" TFT Display
File Playback: MP3, WMA, JPEG, AMV, AVI
EQ: Bass, Classic, Pop, Jazz, Rock, Normal
Function: Music, Video, Game, FM Radio, Voice Recording, E-book
ID3 tag and lyric display

Perfect for a cheap Christmas present or the likes. I dare say it's a clearance item at the price, but it may pay to ring your local store or just pop in and grab one. This is in-store only, not online. Enjoy!

    I suspect the fact it's orange might have something to do with the fact there is still stock on the shelves…

      The funny thing is though that I didn't even go in there looking for one - was just speaking to the lady at the counter about cheap items and she mentioned it and got it out from a cupboard behind her! It's not that often these days that the staff actually tell you about the bargain! :)

        pulling the old 'bargain hunter' on her. ladies love it

          I like it when I hear about ladies 'Ozbargaining'…because it's means they are tight!

          Maybe… it could also mean they like the group action though. Buyer beware.

      If it was orange my impulse to buy one would even be greater. So it can stand out. =)

    It's posts like these that remind me of why OzBargain started in the first place.

    10% off and free delivery are NOT bargains and reps need to pull their crap together and stop using OzBargain as free advertising.

    Just my little rant for the evening.

    • bendertiger on 18/08/2011 - 21:03

      Agree, 40% off and counting on good products is when I start salivating :)

      I'm with ya.
      I get tempted to vote down 5% "discounts".
      I'm a bit more harder to please than bendertiger, 50% onwards for me!

        How do you get Ozbargainers to visit a strip joint?

        (sunglasses on)

        Tell them everything inside is 90% off…

        YEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!

          With only 197,761,262 kms on the clock.
          According to Redbook this thing is only worth around $150,000,000.
          That is if it has the factory extras -power windows, cruise control and enhanced master events controllers and multiplexer-demultiplexers.

    none at carnegie OW :( why do people plus the deal before they check if it actually available ?

    • Yumi on 19/08/2011 - 14:12

      Well, taking the above example, the deal gets plus'd regardless of it being actually available…

    • Captain Obvious on 19/08/2011 - 14:18

      …says the person who plussed the deal without checking if it was in stock

  • Captain Obvious on 19/08/2011 - 14:17

    i just called around, asked in my local store (who said they had none), but they told me whre there are stock left.
    Apparently in the Elizabeth St store (Melb CBD) they have 2 left….

    • esbelfer on 19/08/2011 - 15:20
      -5

      Eliz St now have none in stock.

      Another store had them (Commercial Rd, Sth Yarra) - had two, was going to buy them, but the guy said they were unsellable, so wouldnt sell thm, and he was updating his computer to show 0 stock.

      Now, I'm going to write this for the benefit of fellow VIC OZBs, with the hope that as I'm announcing something to save you all time in hunting around, I don't get screwed over and someone takes them from me:
      There is another store showing stock, but I already called them this morning and reserved them (3).

      So please, please, PLEASE: I hope that I don't get done over by someone else who goes and buys them before I get in to the store. I only advertised that I have them on hold to save fellow VIC OZBs time in trying to call/run around to various stores to find stock, when the only store showing stock have already been reserved (for me!), and there arent any others to be found :-(

      So, please be kind !

      • gambit_asdf on 19/08/2011 - 18:01

        why would you reserve all 3 for yourself? Sounds very selfish to me. I highly doubt you will use all 3 for yourself.

      I personally took 2 of those 4 and left 2 for someone else. With a large family, and also as an eBay seller, I would gladly have taken all 4 but it didn't seem quite right to do so. Can't say it wasn't tempting :D

  • aldog on 19/08/2011 - 18:42

    Have updated the bargain as being expired due to finding out that limited people managed to secure some.

    Sorry to those who were saying about being the one and only to purchase it - honestly I had no clue as to how many were at each and every store (and why would I?) and I didn't ask the lady to check them all anyway, as I was just happy purchasing one and didn't get greedy and do a broden and pick up the rest, nor was I prepared to ring up every store Australia-wide after 9pm last night - was far easier posting it up here for others to potentially grab one if they could. I just thought I'd pop it up here, as the OzBargain community to me is 'share and share alike' as otherwise hardly any of us would know where to snap up items such as free samples, movie vouchers, cheap shavers, cheap handheld radios, cheap HP Microservers or the likes.

    Overall, I have managed to have a chuckle with the comments such as the strip club, the shuttle and pulling the 'bargain hunter' on the ladies. This is also what makes the OzBargain community so great. Thanks for all the positive votes and support :)

    • Ace on 20/08/2011 - 19:06

      Did you get it today or yesterday? & What time? I went there yesterday and had someone searching out back and on the computer for 15mins but they couldn't find any.

      • dafau on 21/08/2011 - 01:00

        14:53 20/08/11 time on receipt. Perhaps it was another guy, mine was one from the tills on the RHS as you enter. He came with it in about 3min after I asked for it. So I was lucky time time, it does not happen often.

  • esbelfer on 22/08/2011 - 14:10

    To all those angry at me:
    1) There have been other bargains that I have seen people commenting that they got multiple items. I am not the only one to have bought more than the one of a cheap item.

    2) I posted the info not to p!ss you off, but rather to try saving your time when looking around, as I was only suggesting that I had already called around to find out the stock levels.

    • Captain Obvious on 30/08/2011 - 23:05
