Verbatim3

Finally we bring you all a new USB deal. This time a Verbatim USB 3 drive. We have a LOT of stock so it should last a few days hopefully. These drives will begin shipping on Thursday. We have included a link to a review of the drive on the product page.

You enter the coupon code after the first Paypal page. It works for anything on the site.

Any issues, shoot us an email [email protected]

Also don't forget our previous deal on the Samsung All in One PC is ending tomorrow. http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/83182.

UPDATE: Well we made it 3 days without managing to sell out, so we feel like people who wanted them have had a pretty good chance. But we want to clear the remaining stock, so we have taken off the limit. You can now buy as many as you want!

Stop the presses!!! Sorry it was late last night and we forgot we were going to play a little game. There are 5 Colours. Post your guess as to which colour will sell out first. The catch is we have different starting quantities of each drive and we are not going to tell you what they are. But you can assume that we ordered based on our assumptions of what would sell fastest (so not many pinks). So you pick your colour. All of the correct answers will go into a draw and we will select 3 people to get a free drive. Good Luck!

      Good for you for jumping on the blasphemy bandwagon and getting rewarded. I for one certainly don't consider any of that amusing.

        Lol thanks, I don't care either way. Imo a colour preference is not worth a comment, i don't know why everyone thinks it's cool.

          I think islandstyle was referring to the "Oh mah gerd guys" part of your comment.

          I hope they were joking because if not I seriously wonder how they survive in the world if something silly like that is offensive to them…

        • Correct, I was.

          No, I was being serious although it wouldn't make sense if it offended me. What's really silly is the fact that it's used as such in the first instance.

          Moving on…

          I jumped on the blashpehmy bandwagon, because some people might not have gotten the sarcasm.

          What's really silly is the fact that it's used as such in the first instance.

          And by the way, I didn't neg your first comment.

  • Blue
    :)

  • Blue

  • Thanks guys. I ordered four after realising recently I've lost all of my USB drives except for an old 1gb Sandisk Cruzer!

  • pink

  • Rep, you should get your site listed on http://www.staticice.com.au/ and other price comparison sites. I would have bought from you last week if I'd seen your prices on there.

    • +1

      We are working on it, they require a direct feed of products which our site does not currently support. Should be up and running soon. We are on shopbot though.

      What were you looking for out of curiosity?

      • +1

        I was after Quickbooks Accounting. You have it for $318 (incl free shipping) which is $10 cheaper than the cheapest on staticice, plus they charge for shipping.

        • Thanks for that.

  • Grey

  • Green ftw.

  • RED!!

  • Grey :)

  • Blue!

  • Blue! … Stands out the most I reckon

  • Blue is my guess, good deal by the way rep.

  • blue

  • Great deal! Picked one up!

  • My guess is the Cool Blue

  • Got a blue and a pink but reckon blue will sell out first.

  • got to be grey

  • black 1 will go first. guess its most pop since stores mostly stock only the black version of things.

  • Grey!

  • Blue

  • I want a purple one, but I don't need one…

  • Green obviously ;)

    Bought one but didn't need one. Job + Ozbargain = many impulse purchases

  • Everyone say GREY…. But I say BLUE!! (^^ I did the same!)

  • Just bought 20 in 'Violet', good timing had to buy some new drives for work today and these fit the bill.

    • Oh, you dirty hobbit.

  • Pink

  • Green!

  • +ve for being usb 3. So many usb's advertised are still 2.0

  • Bought a grey - thanks

  • I bought mine a couple of days ago and still have not received a confirmation email? Would there be a problem?

    • We have had a few bounce backs, can you send us an email and we will forward the info.

  • blue XD

  • red!

    Your colour preference is NOT worth a comment

    How about actually contributing to a bargain, and providing useful insight, instead of letting the world know what colour you're getting on your usb.

    • By request of the op.

      There are 5 Colours. Post your guess as to which colour will sell out first … All of the correct answers will go into a draw and we will select 3 people to get a free drive. Good Luck!

        Well, that's really awkward.

        • When you read the post originally that wouldn't have been there. Just in case you thought you were going insane.

        • +1

          It's an awful feeling isn't it :)

          Meh, people make mistakes, be pretty boring if everything and everyone was perfect.

  • ordered -

    blue will go first!

  • Grey

  • i'm guessing it's going to be none

  • Delivered this morning. Top stuff Flingshot!

  • received mine today, they are fast drives! getting 13.5Mbytes/s for write on USB2

  • Test finished without errors.

    Writing speed: 12.9 MByte/s
    Reading speed: 26.7 MByte/s
    H2testw v1.4

    (this is on USB2)

    very good, will buy another 2 now i know they are good.

    • These are pretty odd drives..

      Test on USB 3.0 (Z77 Intel)

      Read: 75 MByte/sec
      Write: 9 MByte/sec

      The write speed for the 1st few seconds are very fast, like 50 Mbyte/sec (indicating some kind of a buffer) but then slows down dramatically.

      Overall it makes a poor general purpose USB stick, but pretty impressive if you're doing a lot of reads on already written data.

      • I don't get near this on mine…but like you said it may start off well. Very disappointed. Will be avoiding Flingshot in the future.

        • $13 on a branded USB 3.0 drive, only so much you can expect. I think there's random variance there too.

  • got a blue and grey one!

    cheers!

  • Voilet first.

  • Green first

  • blue

  • I guess Blue will go first.

  • blue

  • BLUE will sell out 1st.

  • I guess pink will sell out first.

  • BLUE

  • pink will sell out first

  • Blue

  • I'm blue da ba dee da ba die…

  • Grey!

  • I'll go violet for something different.

  • I guess blue will generate more sales, but since pink has less quantity, I'm choosing Pink as the colour that will sell out first…

  • Errm, I'm just wondering, why is ordering yellow and orange not an option?…because I'd like an orange colour one :S

    • Sorry we didn't order those colours.

  • +1

    bought another and the write speeds on this one are much slower than my first one

    Test finished without errors.

    Writing speed: 7.80 MByte/s
    Reading speed: 27.6 MByte/s
    H2testw v1.4

      Yeah, will be avoiding this company moving forward. They sell complete crap/faulty products

      • +1

        Responded to your comment below. Again it would be reasonable to allow us to at least try to fix the problem for you first. Unfortunately if you sell a couple thousand drives a few are going to fail. Which is why we always offer to replace or refund them for the customer at our expense.

  • blue most popular and first to sell out is my guess

  • Blue

  • Purple will sell out first….I hope :)

  • I think blue will sell out first. I finally found something I can buy from flingshot to justify my extensive reading of all the rep's comments! yay!

  • I ordered a blue one a while a go. Got confirmation that it has been shipped on 9 November. It has been 1 week but I haven't received it. Is this normal?
    I'm in Victoria BTW.

    • Not that is not normal, but pretty much every time we do a big usb key deal a few take over a week to arrive, it seems to be an OZ Post sorting issue or something.

  • -1

    I bought one after thinking it was a good deal. Plugged into my perfectly working USB 3 port on my motherboard, files transfer as if this was USB 2.0. Also tried another USB 3.0 port on my PC and a different PC all together and same issue… Either they have a massive batch of faulty USB 3 drives hence the low price; or these are falsely advertised. I will personally be staying away from this company moving forward as I suspect I would only get headaches from them if the item isn't returned in "original package" when one would not think to keep it after opening…

    • +1

      I am not really sure why you expect headaches from us about original packaging, presumably you have had this experience with other retailers?

      If the drive is faulty as it sounds like it is we will obviously replace it or refund you and pay for shipping it back to us.

      I would imagine if all of the thousands of drives we sold to OZB members were faulty or falsely advertised that we would have a bit more of an uproar here than one person.

      • Was pretty unfair - we're talking tech products here where the occasional compatibility issue or borked item is to be expected, and what's with prejudging the warranty service?

        Probably more a case of someone living by the "squeaky wheel gets the grease" credo.

    • Still waiting for an email or a PM to help you get this issue sorted out.
