        I see that the price of the product was raised to the exact amount of the additional discount for what I purchased so it would have cost the same anyway.

        The neg is not on the reply to my post, but that the discount is a false discount as price jacks meant that amount paid world be there same.

        With the regards to negs to my post, I find it confusing as there is no harm in asking and if anything has worked in other cases.

            @pcstoremelbourne: I bought the Dell Latitude 7390 which was listed for $390, bringing it down to $340 after using the $50 coupon code. It is currently listed at $440 with a $100 coupon code, bringing it back to the same price.

            There is also this comment below.

              @StevieRay: The laptop you bought is Dell Latitude 7390- Intel Core i5-8350u, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD, FHD Touchscreen+ Warranty which is a 2 in 1 laptop with touchscreen whereas the laptop you are refering to is a different laptop(with same model number) with different stock. If you are not sure, please check and compare with what you ordered and what you are referring to.

              • StevieRay on 05/01/2023 - 11:08

                @pcstoremelbourne: I just used the same link you provided here.
                even the URL hints at touchscreen /product/dell-latitude-7390-intel-core-i5-8350u-8gb-ram-356gb-ssd-fhd-touchscreen-warranty/

                If what you say is true. non-touchscreen I stand corrected.
                But I hope you can see where I am coming from, using the same link I had originally bought from.

                • Associatedpcstoremelbourne @ pcstoremelbourne on 05/01/2023 - 11:13

                  @StevieRay: The listing was created by duplicating the old one as most of the specifications are same. When you checked the laptop specification, you checked the URL or the actual specs?

                  • StevieRay on 05/01/2023 - 11:20

                    @pcstoremelbourne: I used the same page I bought from and checked price.

                    As I stated above if that is the case I admitted that I stand corrected, but it is unfortunate that you cannot see why this assumption had occurred.
                    If you want to be picky, it looks like you edited the page rather than duplicated the page

                • Associatedpcstoremelbourne @ pcstoremelbourne on 05/01/2023 - 11:20

                  @StevieRay: Thanks for understanding. When most of the spcs are same, instaed on creating a listing from scratch, we prefer to replicate it from older listing/ just update existing listing. I understand about the confusion but validating items details through a URL is probably not the best way.

                  • StevieRay on 05/01/2023 - 11:22

                    @pcstoremelbourne: Nice. I shall do that when I commit to making a purchase.
                    Constructive feedback, you may want to QA your URLs to not accidentally mislead people.

    So these are used products ?

    I'm guessing you're some kind of re-furb distributor ?

    Not worth the risk of handing a small company my CC info I dont think.

    I didn't see anything that looked like an amazing used deal. Even with $100 off ontopo most of the stock can be had on eBay for similar prices, with the benefit that you're handing your credit card method to eBay1

      Yea they only accept CC. Extremely shady for a retail in modern era. PayPal is first line in defense then you use CC on top of it so if they screw you over PayPal will mostly side with you.

        Extremely shady

        This is a bizarre overreaction. CC still offers reasonable protection, and paypal isn't perfect protection anyway.

    • Associatedpcstoremelbourne @ pcstoremelbourne on 04/01/2023 - 18:20

      Hi, thanks for your feedback.

      We dont save any credit card info as our payment is managed by square which is very secured. To ensure we are competitive, we do a lot of research and list the price accordingly. Most of the time, you will find them in cheaper price at ebay when they are sold as single item listed by individual user or resellers with lower stock.Indiviaul sellers wont provide you any warranty though.

      Just to give you an example,
      Dell Latitude 5491- Intel i5-8250u, 8GB RAM, 240GB SSD, FHD Touchscreen+ Warranty - After discount the price is $579
      at ebay, the lowest price for this model is $615 with no touchscreen and warranty.

      • DellDealLols on 04/01/2023 - 18:36

        The problem is, all of the payment information is entered on your webpage.
        This means that not only do I have to trust that you're not intentionally storing it, which I have no way of knowing.
        I also have to trust that your webpage/back end isn't compromised and a malicious third party isn't able to collect the data I enter into your webpage.

        I doubt your webpage is "very secure"

        On price, I don't really care but…

        On your own eBay shop that product is currently listed as … AU $539.00
        Dell Latitude 5491- Intel i5-8250u, 8GB RAM, 240GB SSD

        • Associatedpcstoremelbourne @ pcstoremelbourne on 04/01/2023 - 18:45

          Thanks for pointing that out. Just identified that ebay store stock and price is not synced yet. Doing some manually and the full store will sync tonight automatially.

          Really appreaciate for highlighting this.

        • ssfps on 04/01/2023 - 22:29

          The problem is, all of the payment information is entered on your webpage.

          For what it's worth, OP is using an industry standard secure method. Square is implemented the same as every other (compliant) payment processor.
          How it works:
          when you submit those details the webpage in your browser sends that data directly to pci-connect.squareup.com , which posts back (responds with) some success/fail info to your web browser client, which then posts info back to pcstoremelbourne (or whatever merchant) saying the transaction finished, some result data.

          You can verify this yourself by putting in some fake CC data (like 411111111111111) and watching the network connections tab to see what gets sent.

          Also, in my experience payment processors are usually reasonable at ensuring merchants using them are using them correctly (compliance). I'm sure some dodgy websites are out there, but I doubt there are many fraudulent ones using compliant payment processors operating long term.

          • DellDealLols on 05/01/2023 - 09:32

            @ssfps:

            Also, in my experience payment processors are usually reasonable at ensuring merchants using them are using them correctly (compliance). I'm sure some dodgy websites are out there, but I doubt there are many fraudulent ones using compliant payment processors operating long term.

            I have worked with some of Australia's largest retail brands.

            All of them, at some point or another have not been close to PCI compliant and have been processing credit card transactions.
            The banks aren't even reasonable at this.
            The mid sized customers, lol I had one with a WordPress instance that was "admin/admin" as credentials.

            From things like nesting the iFrame inside a keylogger to outright replacing it, there's so many ways a bad actor can capture your payment information that you just wouldn't know about unless you were pretty diligent about hitting inspect source and understanding what you're actualyl looking at.

            For this specific webpage:
            They have vulnerabilities in plug-ins https://wpsec.com/scan/?id=e5dbcb36ad85cbefb7bd9c34c52d68c6
            Their admin portal is accessible to the wan at /admin

            Do you really trust their payment implementation sitting on their word press instance ?

            "Other people on the internet are doing it"
            or
            "This is how Square works"

            Don't make it trust worthy.

            their word press admin is accessible from anywhere in the world at /admin

        He is right about that. The listing price of very few of the items were increased with updated stock due to increased cost. For most of them it was between($2-$10). There was major price increase for just 2 items(out of 105 items).

        • StevieRay on 04/01/2023 - 19:58

          I thought there was a law against that.

        • StevieRay on 05/01/2023 - 02:08

          Which were the 2 items that saw "major price increase"?

  • ssfps on 04/01/2023 - 22:45

    Why is the t470p cheaper than the t460p? The only difference i can see is the smaller SSD on the 470 - is that the only downside?

    • Associatedpcstoremelbourne @ pcstoremelbourne on 05/01/2023 - 09:28

      Yes, you are right.

    Step 1: Increase price
    Step 2: Provide discount
    Step 3: Enjoy
