    Hi, do you plan on doing any deals on the black edition of GoPro? I'm pretty keen on the silver edition you have on special but if there is to be a deal on the black edition I may hold off.

    • Store Repflingshot @ Flingshot on 14/01/2013 - 10:31

      The pricing is not good enough yet unfortunately. We can get them down to around $435 but from what we can see other vendors are doing them at the same price. Correct me if I am wrong though.

      • aec on 14/01/2013 - 10:49

        $435 is acceptable for black edition, if people fly out of the country in 30 days (i mean myself). however, the problem with gopro 3 is that it has too many problems.

    Rep, any chance for a Synology DS1512+ NAS + WD Red deal? The DS1512+ standalone price is more expensive than, say, PC Case Gear (although I note your price includes shipping).

    • Store Repflingshot @ Flingshot on 14/01/2013 - 11:06

      We have a deal with 5 3TB RED drives, which drives were you looking for?

      Also in regards to pricing we are $5 cheaper, and if you specify a business we ship overnight express, rather than eparcel which can be slow.

      • ShootingStar on 14/01/2013 - 13:50

        Bummer, I need to be quicker, the DS1512+ has sold out. Do you know when you'll get more stock? And do you have an indicative price for the RAM upgrade?

      • UncleRico on 14/01/2013 - 21:15

        Can you clarify what the deal on the "5 3TB RED" drives is, as I couldn't see anything on the site and I'm tonguing for a decent deal on 3tb REDs to help me populate my NAS?

        Also, as others have noted, kudos on being OB's most responsive rep!

          The WD RED offer was refering to the populated NAS. When we ship the NAS with the drives installed it saves on shipping charges we can then pass that savings on to the customer.

          We are working on another Synology & WD RED deal should have confirmation soon, also waiting for stock to actually be available for sale ;)

        You should just put sold out and start or used the other thread. People have given you +ve votes on Verbatim 16GB USB 3 Flash Drive - $9.
        Changing the title to something completely different just to use people's votes is not fair.

          We can't start another thread. 24h limit. We can't change the other title as we didn't post it. Until a mod comes and merges them this was the best solution we had…

          EDIT: Also I might point out that when the Verbatim drive sold out and we changed the title there were around 15+ now we are at 25+ so I think it is a bit academic at this point.

          Correct. Please read the guidelines
          Too many deals

          Store representative posting limits:

          • 1 deal per 24 hours
          • 2 deals per 7 days - provided the votes on past deal are not too low. This can be reduced to 1 deal per 7 days if past votes are low.
          • If the past 2 rep posts for the domain made the front page (20+ votes), the representative is allowed an extra post per week, making it 3 deals per 7 days.

          See posting limits for details.

          Changing your title to overcome these rules is not Etiquette

          Just to be clear this is "one deal" there are 20 products available in the sale. We can't post 20 deals so we put them all into one deal. If one item is sold out and all others are available are we supposed to just shut down the whole deal?

          Your assumption was that every one of those 15+ votes was for the verbatim. Based on our sell through of the other items in the sale after we posted it a significant number of them were for other items especially the lexar.

      As we have explained multiple times when we have posted OEM drives, some of them come out of brand new machines which we have upgraded. I also explained this to you over email and offered to refund the drive and pay for return shipping at our expense.

      It should also be noted that we went out of our way to provide this drive for you after they had sold out as we had a few left since you took the time to email us, and at the time seemed pretty reasonable.

      As a final note these drives did not come from upgraded machines, they were purchased brand new from our supplier of HGST, hence us not mentioning that in this deal.

      • Roary on 14/01/2013 - 15:59

        I think if you take your HDD out of a laptop and reformat it that does not make it an OEM product, Even if the laptop was brand new. The hard drive would have data written all over if and even a format does not make it back into a brand new 'OEM" product.

          OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. In the case discussed above, Samsung is actually the OEM as they are from Samsung Ultrabooks. These drives are shipped from the factory with an image loaded. We simply format them and ship them out. They have never been sold to an end user. It is exactly the same as when we take a brand new 240GB SSD and load an image onto it and install it into a machine, would you say that drive has been used? Obviously not. But again we have disclosed this information whenever we posted one of these deals which has been rarely, and people have the choice whether they want to buy the drive and save money or pay more for a retail drive.

          And just to reiterate again, the HGST drives in this deal came directly from our supplier.
