    • I don't believe this but if it were true, I'd still be nervous since I purchased both this one and another monitor in a separate orders.

      Seems legit

        Yep. As legit as my 10 incher.

      What’s weird to me is that you have the free time to write this load of bullshit up.

        It’s obviously fake. Jesus some people are friggan gullible.

      I got a similar one..

      Dear Customer, Thank you for shopping at Dell. I am pleased to inform you "poopoo peepee".

      Kind regards

        i'm in my 30's….saying poopoo and pee pee still makes me laugh hysterically.

      Different to the email I got;

    • Don't believe it but would be absolute karma for multi unit buyers trying to resell.

    • I think everyone here is going to want to see a screenshot to prove this, unless other people got it too?

    Mine is now confirmed.

    I ended up getting two.

      Proof?

    • Screenshot?

    • What time did you place your order, if I may ask?

      • You just did, ask

    • Did you actually order 10 and get refunded 8? Or fulfilled 2 and in the queue for 8?

    • What time did you order ?

    • Lol, which is the more surprising… Getting 2x price error delivered, or that Dell monitor delivery is so efficient!! 1 working day, not even that!

    • Yeh and i’m secretly batman!

        Hey guys my 3 yo son works at Dell and said it’s unclear 😂

    • What's true?

      Is it because no one would buy one at $2k and buy OLED instead?

  • Wow.

  • +21

    Good lord there are some proper stingy scabs out here, especially those looking for legal loopholes, like how desperate are you?

    If it's a pricing error and you get refunded, then it is what it is, stuff ups happen. And those carrying on about bait and switch, like, ain't nobody buy anything from Dell to begin with, WTF are they baiting and switching? LOL

    • +12

      It’s called entitlement. People talking about their weekends being ruined. 🤦‍♀️

    • +2

      You must be new to ozbargain?

    • The bait and switch argument is dumb.
      Imagine how much bad blood that creates for your prospective clients. Never will they trust a deal you put up again at face value and would be very hesitant to use you as their first choice of vendor again. If they were legit doing a bait and switch as a means of gaining prospective customers the negative impact of such an action would heavily outweigh the positive.

    • Nope, you won't get refund, because Dell hasn't charged the card yet. :)

      • Even more reason to not be upset

      • PayPal

      Tbh I'm just here to order and have fun with the ozbarg crew - this is great

    Congrats to everyone that managed to order this is a banger of a gaming monitor
    Hope they actually ship might get some good second hand deals pop up afterwards

  • +18

    Anyone else not working and refreshing this thread?

    • +3

      100% haha. Waiting for my 1 to get confirmed

      • What a nice treat that would be. Fingers crossed just like everyone else

    • Guilty aye

    Don't do that, don't give me hope.

    Anyone ordered extra and dont need it. Pm me. Lol..late to the party. Need one to wfh.

  • +6

    Seriously. Who in their right mind actually thinks they’ll honour this? It’s clearly a pricing error and the T&Cs state they don’t have to honour it and they won’t.

    Dell won’t lose hundreds of thousands of revenue.

    • +2

      Theyve honoured crazy price errors in the past. Hard drives and printers comes to mind from years ago

      • +2

        Were they worth $2499?

        • +1

          Now price is $1,749.30

        • I did get the drone from bunnings worth around 2k.
          Payed $289 or something like that

      • -1

        Sure. But not a price error that’s costing them $1,500 per unit. For potentially 10,000 units given the click rate.

        That’s a $15,000,000 loss. Even if it’s less and sure the RRP is BS, it’s still millions in revenue loss.

        • +5

          Mistakenly advertised monitors? $15,000,000

          Earning the respect of OzBargain? Priceless

        When I ordered a monitor from Dell earlier this year, 5 minutes after the order received email, I received the order confirmed email.

        I haven't received the order confirmed email, so I'm expecting this to be cancelled.

        • +1

          Yeah I bought their 34" on the 5th of September and the confirmation email came 10 minutes after the received one.

        • Time vary for order confirmations, I got instant confirmation for a laptop bag, and 4 days for two S2721DGF during previous sale.

    • +1

      although i agree that it's more likely that they won't honour it….i have seen in the past some businesses honour ridiculous value deals, and when those deals are purchased on such mass scale (like this one) they just claimed the hiccup on insurance, and insurance paid it out so they send everybody the product they purchased. Wonder if they will bother putting this in that category.

      • Yes, I see..
        It appears you have taken out all of the extras on your insurance cover Dell, I see you have learnt from your past mistakes.
        This claim comes under Section 4, part A - "Ozbargain indemnity cover". You are covered for upto $25,000,000 in losses, please proceed to confirm and ship orders. Your claim will be forwarded when all orders are finalized. Thank you and good day.

        • i have a friend that works in insurance, i'll get her to send them an email.

          Don't worry, i got this.

    • I'm telling Tracy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
