Not that cheap when you consider mandatory postage. They mysteriously charge $5 for pickup and shipping was over $10 to Adelaide. Even Officeworks have burners for $34. BupBow!
I HATE companies that impose fees for you to pick products up from them. Is absolute BS.
For what little consolation, the one time I did go to MWave to pick up an item I was kept waiting for around 20 minutes….not by other customers - but the staff member seemed confused as could be and eventually claimed that a colleague had placed it in the wrong area.
Charging a pickup fee is just a pain….
The writer is actually ok - MSY are out of stock at present and they're a good all around writer - agree though that the Pioneer 215BK and Sony 7200 are ahead in absolute writing quality - but this is cheaper and most users would never know the difference.
You can buy these from MSY for $25!

Performance of that drive is also disappointing compared to the 20x Samsung drives - the firmware needs a bit of work before I'd recommend purchasing this drive. (The Pioneer DVR-115D/215 have the best burn quality out of all of the drives currently available, followed by the Sony/NEC AD-7200x)
