  • I thought this was OzBARGAIN, not "how to pay more for online goods"
    and also DUPE on the macbook.

      Just needs new title:

      "Pay 6.8% less tax by not using IE at Kogan.com"

  • this is simply a waste of everyone's time. Well done engineeringprof

  • What?

  • +3

    Is true - checked their website.

    • Around 5% market share for IE7.

    Seriously not a bargain, neg from me!

      I'll support this, Kogan are informing customers how they can SAVE

      • Really? Are they not simply adding 6.8% cost to IE7 users and keeping other browsers at the same price, isn't this some gimiky sales pitch!

  • I have to use IE8 at work and it fills me with RAGE. I struggle to see how 7 is worse, but I am told that it is.

  • and when you load kogan on IE7 you get a sh*tload of script errors.

    Great, this is exactly why I come to OzLAMEJOKES… wait.

      Yup! That was a lame joke you made just there buddy.

        Can't disagree with that. Maybe I can get a job with Kogan to spam Ozbargain?

  • Eh? Kogan is legally allowed to charge more taxes?

    If so, this is an awesome bargain.

    • It looks legal to me!
      if you drive a bigger car - more tax.
      kids a cheaper, adults pay more.

        ..and in this cases it is an internet fail tax.

  • Moved to Forums — it's probably still worthwhile for discussion but definitely not a bargain.

    By the way is 13 June the new 1 April? We had that then this?

    • +2

      You should know by now Scotty, every day is the 1st of April at OzBargain! ;)

  • I don’t get the point, apart from the free marketing exposure. Who says you have to continue to code to suit IE (version 7 or otherwise) Code to whatever (current) standard you prefer.

  • Its Just another Publicity Stunt By Kogan to Get attention…

    • this is it^^^

      and no one but geeks care about browser usage

  • haha their coders are so shit they can't get the site working for IE7 so they do this instead

    • +1

      Hehe. I don't think OzBargain works well for IE7 either. I am going to charge 6.8% on top of OzBargain's current $0 monthly subscription fee for the IE7 users!!! Currently 1.86% of all OzBargain visitors according to our stats. Bwahaha!!

  • Ha ha ha…

    Their publicty stunt backfired…
