Been hunting for a reasonable price, local resellers all seem to be around the $100 mark for the 4GB model.
CamelCamelCamel.
Which gift card is that?
suncorp rewards
Suncorp, like outlander mentioned.
So that makes it $78.43 (+delivery if no prime).
Thanks for this. Started looking for something to drive a small desktop CNC without risking dust getting sucked into my laptop
Is that directly, via something like Klipper, or using
a tool like Octoprint? I've done the latter with my 3d printer, assume a CNC would be similar?
Look up mpcnc đź‘Ť
That project looks wonderful.
Bit or a stretch ordering from the UK to save $10 to $20
How much discount is needed to make it worthwhile?
Depends on the person I guess. I think with the current postage delays it makes it less appealing.
They're made in the UK and it's sold by Amazon so no issues with returns.
They're made in the UK …
contradicting all who outsourced their manufacturing to Asia, claiming that it’s unviable to manufacture in UK.
Consuming and disposing it does voraciously, but does Australia manufacture anything export worthy?
Rode audio still manufactures the majority of their equipment in Sydney.
… That's the only one I know of :-/
Must be a list somewhere of companies that manufacture locally?
@[Deactivated]: Wow, I didn’t know. I’m surprised it hasn’t been bought out by unfamiliar Chinese OEM - IP ransacked, brand poached, and Australian operation shuttered. Owners make a fortune and retire stress free.
depends how urgently you need one …..i have a 4GB buy would buy an 8 GB on a killer deal and would wait for delivery.
if you need urgently, yes, buy local.
I must say I'm impressed with the ozbargain community. Say something not 100% positive and there isn't 1000 downvotes.
Well depends, delivery at this moment in Victoria is hit and miss. Ordering in Melbourne for delivery in Melbourne is not much better than ordering from UK.
A parcel ordered from Melbourne for delivery in metropolitan Melbourne took more than 2 weeks (same as my package from UK).
Raspberry Pi, $25 PC……wait…….
This was the last seen for pi3 (and in US$). Even the first 2gb pi 4 was only US$35.
Different price tiers was always part of the plan.
The original Raspberry Pi 1 had a US $25 model A and US $35 model B, with the Model B being released a many months before the model A.
They still sell a Model 3A+ for US $25 and a Model A+ US $20.
$92.40 shipped from element 14 in NSW

$12 more than amazon deal if you need it in a hurry, or if you don’t have prime.
if you need it in a hurry
well… can't say that deliveries from Europe do either arrive in a timely manner nor even arrive…
guess that makes $92.40 look very affordable for an extra 15% with prime, or a mere +5% without prime.
Yep - This!
I'm still waiting on an order that shipped from the UK on the 29th July..
Makes $12 extra look kinda appealing
@gadget: Nope - Not Amazon at all - Flare Audio.
Having said that, I did have to wait 60 days recently for an Amazon UK order of a Moleskin Limited Edition Mario writing pad for my son…
Ordered 17th June - Finally arrived end of last month.
EDIT: not sure why I negged on simple calculus….
Can this be used as an Ubuntu Desktop computer with external monitors?
Yep. It's one of the default supported os. It can support 2 monitors
It’ll run ubuntu with two monitors, but don’t expect it to be as smooth, capable or straightforward as using a standard x86 based computer for things like video playback.
It works out to be cheaper by another seller on Amazon $55 plus $11 delivery
Raspberry Pi 4 Model B 2019 Quad Core 64 Bit WiFi Bluetooth (4GB) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07TC2BK1X/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_Gn…
I think your link is from Amazon US store, which is in USD.
Sorry my bad , my skills of attention to details are long gone :-(
no worries, probably you practise archery too much :D
AUD 100.49
Just asking; wouldn't this be a better deal :

If you want all those things, then yes, I beleive so.
In the other threads some people were mentioning (complaining) about the fan being loud.
Anyway, it's up to you: if you do want all those things, and at the same time, then you can go for this.
I have a specific use case that is headless (DIY NAS), and have almost all the other components (power, micro SD etc) that makes a full kit overkill.
Just realised Canakit is now being sold on Amazon AU. I think their quality is a bit better?
This kit doesn't have microSD which will save you $20, compares to their full kit. $136.15 + $11.55 Delivery

Don't forget 3% gift card discount..
