Spotted this while looking for a skateboard for my kid, thought it might be a pricing error but ordered anyway. That was 2 days back, currently shown as shipped and halfway to me already.
btw I have no idea if this is any good.

Another colour available:

Seller has their own website which lists it as $5, no idea about shipping costs but does have free pickup from their stores (one each in TweedHeads South NSW, OsbornePark WA and Miami QLD)

    $20 RRP by the looks. still a good deal at $5

    • GnarlyKnuckles on 14/12/2024 - 16:02

      The delivery cost to Melbourne, is $20. Not worth it.

    • DarkProject on 14/12/2024 - 18:32

      says the RRP is $118

        Suspect that's whether the error is, RRP should only be $11.80 by the look of it lol

    From my experience, it's worth paying extra to get a real Penny board.

    Unless it's just a throwaway stocking filler that you don't expect your kid to use for more than a couple of days, then this is a good deal.

      Please don't buy trash you don't expect to use, there's enough waste in the world.

        100% agreed.

        I think we actually need to start monitoring large corporations (Kmart etc) who sell rubbish that breaks after one use and fine them for importing waste.

        • Alzori on 15/12/2024 - 14:06

          I like the idea of making companies responsible for whole of life costs of items, recycling/disposal etc. make a financial incentive for them to make quality stuff that people don't want to get rid of.

    These look like a rip off of penny boards which is just a modern interpretation of 70s skateboards. They are really small and difficult to ride (but I'm an adult).

    • 0jay on 14/12/2024 - 17:19

      i know a few grownass adults who use pennies for th daily commute

      • MS Paint on 14/12/2024 - 17:38

        They must have smaller feet and better balance than me.

        • 0jay on 14/12/2024 - 17:44

          they’re short commutes but one fella’s 6’3”!

          i think if y have a loose sloppy style and you’re not going far it can do the job

            @0jay:

            a loose sloppy style

            My wife says I have this but still does the job.

        • besttechadvisor on 14/12/2024 - 18:26

          I'm 6' and can still ride my Penny when I feel like it.

          It's all about bending the knees and leaning into it, like a lot of things.

          I mean, plenty of people balance on a Slackline 🤷

    Shipping isn't combined. Each board adds $20 shipping
