Moved to Forum: Original Link

Moved to forums - Reason: pricing error. Officeworks has officially clarified that this is a catalogue misprint.

Inspired by bargainsgrabber, I try to spot what he missed out, and find this. I'm not sure if this is Officeworks' Black Friday hightlight, or a typo. I hope it remains untouched on the upcoming hard copy catalogue. Shopfully catalogue entry.

      • cookie2 on 14/11/2022 - 09:28

        Do you find it more comfortable than a standard mouse for clicking etc? As it, more comfortable on your forearm and fingers.

        • CyberMurning on 14/11/2022 - 10:17
          +2

          yes wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy more comfy.

          well you need time to get used to it but it wont be too long. and you still can comeback to normal mouse no problem.
          maybe a bit harder from normal mouse to trackball but again i had normal then went to trackballs and now back to normal (but vertical).

          very easy to tell. put your arm into keyboard and type few words, then switch both palm to handshake position ..> straight away you will feel some relief especially on the outer side of the hand and arm up to the elbow

          • cookie2 on 14/11/2022 - 21:48

            @CyberMurning: Thanks. I think I need to bite the bullet and pay up the $. I despise spending money for work but it sounds like it'll be worthwhile for me. Just wish I could find one a little cheaper or at least try before I buy so I'd know it worked for me. Thanks again.

              @cookie2: well.. there is pawn shops, gumtree and marketplace? just search your local area, make a reasonable offer. worst case you can re-sell at say $10 loss. not big deal.

              yeah i am having hard time explaining to some workmates why my mouse+keyboard are over $250 but theirs are $35. wait till you get that wrist pain….

      Yeah but a error where what price was intended to be typed? $130? That's more than the Logitech's own price of $129.95.

      I definitely think it's possible. These plastic mice will cost less than $3 each to make.

      If theres anything I have learned from being on ozbargain. It's if you doubt, you miss out.
      A few deals which I thought too good to be true/honoured I remember were the Lenovo free $100 to $200 points credit with no minimum spend. They actually honored it lol. Also another one was Amazon's price error's on Airpods and Apple TV's.

      • wombat81 on 14/11/2022 - 19:07

        There's much more to the price of an item than how much a single unit costs to make.

        • n3ck3ntry8bort0rgasm on 14/11/2022 - 19:08

          Yeah but everything is done in bulk and probably combined shipping in huge containers. How much would that add per plastic mouse? They weigh practically nothing. A few cents I would assume.
          Commercial logistics definitely must cost less than what you pay for postage per individual customer.

          • wombat81 on 14/11/2022 - 19:12

            @n3ck3ntry8bort0rgasm: R&d, designers, software developers, electrical engineers plus a hundred other things.

              -3

              @wombat81: Dude. Those things are included in how much is costs to make lol. How do you think those cheaper mice are made and still sell for profit?
              These are made in a factory next door and the only difference is the brand name slapped on with clever marketing to make you believe they hired expensive designers so it's ergonomic. Not much different in terms of shape to your run of the mill vertical mouse.

              "There's much more to the price of an item than how much a single unit costs to make."

              I was going to say you are right. Marketing and your old friend jack. Logitech seems to do fancy marketing. And they price jack the product 10x more than they can sell it at without losses. So when it's priced at 1/10th people will say "bargain!" and buy it in droves and Logitech still makes money. Do you seriously think this mouse is worth $130?

              The only thing I find questionable in this deal is the source. I have never heard of "Shopfully".

              • wombat81 on 14/11/2022 - 19:53

                @n3ck3ntry8bort0rgasm: You have no idea

                  -1

                  @wombat81: So by your logic this is a $130 mouse and equal to an MX Master which is an actual good mouse that probably had experts involved in it's design.

                  You do realize Logitech can also make and sell cheap stuff right? Many companies do this they make and sell cheap stuff next to a few actually good models that's how they make money.

                  My mouse was made by Microsoft which is also a big brand like Logitech and was $8 how do you explain that?

      • scphotos on 14/11/2022 - 21:15

        Having sourced many products from China, you're probably not far off the manufactured cost, not including auxillary costs (shipping, r&d, wages etc)

        • n3ck3ntry8bort0rgasm on 15/11/2022 - 16:39

          Well I just based it on my experience and experiences of others. By the way I think it could be cheaper.
          Just recently someone I know purchased something and I could not believe the pricing. They paid 50c per unit for 3x units and shipping was free from china. I could not believe it until they showed me the listing on Etsy and to my surprise I could order just 1 unit if I wanted for the same cost per item with free shipping.

          I couldn't get my head around how the item could be so cheap in the first place, but either way I couldn't understand the free shipping part. Either the item must be free and the buyer is just paying shipping, or the item was 50c per unit and the shipping was somehow free for the seller.

          The only logic I could use is that all the costs involved were broken down in that 50c per unit. Anyway some others here seem to have never stepped foot in china and think they know exactly how things work over there. But I think the costs are much much less than most people think.
          Not sure how other guys logic would work in this case, do they think each 50c sale is split evenly across 100+ areas involved with the product? How does that even make sense?

      • dontpanic on 14/11/2022 - 22:28

        If it's not a price error, it's a massive loss leader and they'll have only 10 in stock.

      Having used both, the vertical is too big (particularly under the wrist) and the lift is slightly too small - I'm really hoping for a middle ground of the two one day

      The silent clicks, scroll wheel, and shape are very nice on the lift though

        Pair it with an eneloop deal, swap and charge when you need to. Better in the long run since you can replace the eneloops easily but you can't replace the built in battery in the MX vertical easily when that eventually goes.
