It is not lower than the last deal, but still a good price.
Or it's the best price if you got a 10% discounted Amazon gift card last week.

CamelCamelCamel.
I understand. However, I think it's better to use this along with the cheaper $10 option.
For me, reliability is the top priority for any testing equipment or tools.
scAmazon goes sub-prime. Not available to regional address.
It says currently unavailable for me, but it did this last week with one of the ozbargain Amazon deals too.
Is anyone else seeing unavailable?
Edit: Ahh it's because I'm in a regional area. F#@K Amazon, their prime membership is useless now.
Yeah had a "15% off this item" that wouldn't deliver to me in a regional area, so I ordered the same item from Amazon US for about the same price.
It's a joke, they really should be refunding memberships if you live in a regional area. I get maybe charging to the back of whoop whoop but it's not that regional where I live.
Yes it's a trending development with Amazon where they claim items are warehoused in locations with a kilometre limit on item delivery which rules out regional addresses. Try a Syndey address and you'll find it is available. This trend is becoming far more prevalent and looks to be a way to water down prime benefits whilst keeping prime subscriptions. And best of all there is absolutely no transparency.
Might want to revoke that neg then.
Why?
It's not a bad deal, you just don't live in an area serviced by the vendor. Doesn't qualify as "issue with the vendor" per the voting guidelines.
@cv05: You personally have, because a single item isn't available, not because of an issue with fraud, card misuse, data leak, rep behaviour or order not fulfilled etc etc. Those are valid negs under the guidelines.
@Ham Dragon: Amazon aren't including free shipping in my paid membership anymore, not just for this item.
Nothing against OP but I'll remove my neg if the post title is changed to "excludes regional areas irrespective of prime membership".
Or the mods can decide.
@cv05: That's not necessarily true though, it might be specifically your location / region, but not "anywhere not metro". Hard theory to test. I'll guess that somewhere in their T&Cs is a clause that allows them to exclude whoever, wherever & whenever. Not saying I agree with it but it's probably something you agreed to at sign up.
@Ham Dragon: Let's say it is in the t&c's and that they decided to just exclude everyone from free shipping. How would that go down?
Next eBay decide to drop free shipping for eBay plus members.
@Ham Dragon: Stuff the voting guidelines. Don't expect them to be perfect and current for emerging issues. This is totally valid as a significant grievance.
Maybe the title needs to be changed to show metro only? Maybe Amazon needs to be taken to task for dodgy practise and negged?
Amazon reps are banned so that is pointless, and it's not like a few downvotes are going to influence the world's largest ecommerce site, please be realistic. As a business they are not obliged to service anyone, anywhere. This is no different to other retailers whose deals are exclusive to certain areas or states.
@Ham Dragon: There is now a real issue with the way prime delivery is sold and should be tested for deceptive and misleading conduct.
@Punkboy: Take it up with the relevant authority then, but shitting on someone's post isn't fair or the right way to address the issue you have.

Votes are for the deal, not the poster. People need to stop looking at votes like a popularity contest.
I think so too. It doesn't feel much different to a "targeted' post.
people will neg this because of something on aliexpress
