I found this listing when browsing for some stuff to buy from a gift card I got from HN.
This listing in particular is very amusing….

There is a review from 3 months ago raving about it.
Please comment. Humour is encouraged.
Damn, review from 3 months ago. Poor Kayla.
Fantastic system runs programmes smooth as butter perfect price for what I'm after
One computer store I visited had a sign saying non-technical users should not shop there.
This is also true for Hardly Normal as I have heard many stories where they push users to buy obsolete or overpowered systems.
That price is a little more palatable although the GPU is from 2019. The advert is kinda true though because it might be ok for e-sports titles on low res settings.
It's gone now. Looks like HN have permanent OzB watcher :)
WOW that's amazing. Maybe it's AI?
What was it? Let me guess…… it was an over-priced, under-spec'd PC via Harvey Norman, likely signed off by Dodgy Gerry himself?
asus rog pre built
Oh true it's back again, when I clicked on it, it went to a 'Whoops you may the wrong URL' BS on Harvey Norman's website

Was advertised for $2.3k.
Kayla commented saying it was the bees knees just 3 months ago.
Dodgy Gerry never ceases to amaze me (in a negative way). The sad thing is people will likely buy it from HN thinking it's a great deal….
I bought two. thanks…
definitely some older SKU that’s been left on the website to clear out aged stock.
Idk I did have a few customers back in the day who knew nothing better and were ready to splash out 3-5k for a ‘premium’ read: expensive as commercially available cookie cutter build.
Judging by the content of the review they probably didn’t know any better either and just happy minesweeper running at 240fps
