typical DSE sale…
None available to click and collect in Perth.
Nothing in WA :(
DSE is increasingly like Catch of the Day.
more like officeworks

these clearance deals with no stock are annoying
Not really only some guys posted it even no stock everywhere.
I think that's a bit unfair. Fair enough if they promote the hell out of it and have limited stock like they did with their game sale which they themselves acknowledge was an absolute fiasco, but this post is from a non rep and something he just stumbled accross it on the website.
Yeah, it really up to the OP to check for stocks before posting it up.
Really? How many of you, having found and bought something online without any trouble then go out of their way to check the availability in several other stores before posting?
It seems there really is no stock anywhere though, so I'm not sure why they haven't removed it from the site.
Personally, I'm happy for these type of deals to be posted. Sure, it can be a waste of time going to a site only to find an item out of stock in your local store, but if it really is a bargain, and they didn't mention it, then we'd miss out if it WAS in stock.
For instance, while many grumbled about the ASUS U31F being out of stock near them, it was instore at a store within driving distance for me, and i wouldn't have know about it if it hadn't been posted here.
no #$%$ing stock anywhere again!!!
Not impressed with their sales and availability.
I did a "click and collect" on a GPS once, on a shop which supposedly had stock. They phoned me to say they only had an "ex-repair" unit, but that it was brand new as it has been replaced. Went all the way there to get it, got home and realised it was not new at all. Had to waste my time to return it.I'd be speaking with ACCC…
Too many times, I've had similarly disappointing experiences with [even pre-acquisition] DSE!
Eg, I walked into a DSE store & noticed at least 6 of a discounted item on a store shelf (above or below the shelf price-tag; it's been a while)… All were ex-repair returns… for which they insisted the correct price was the same as a -new- item price.
It happened in at least 3 of DSE's "sales" on netbooks… "Sorry, we only have ex-repair returns in stock… no rainchecks available.
I wonder if this has gotten -worse- now that there's a new owners?
My issues have been mostly with poor service by staff in their shops. Some staff are great, but some just don't care. Online purchases have been quite okay.
OP, Where's ya local?
No stock in Sydney.
Same as any decent DSE deal. Zero stock.
no hdmi? asus website says yes has 1.
sydney broadway no stockYes they do have HDMI. Mine only has a 4 cell battery though.
It looks like it was just a single store putting an item on clearance. They should change their systems so it doesn't show up on the website and get everyone excited.
SamE price everywhere. That's why it's on the website…
Well, if they only had ONE to offer, OzB's "over 10" rule should have kicked-in…
Perhaps it still CAN do.
Mod, consider moving this deal to an OzB Forum… only 1 item?
Misleading "loss leader" to attract custom in…?
Agreed, not a ozbargain if no stock. more than 1/2 the dicksmith stuff on here is like this
CRAP
haha I just saw this 30mins ago and was wondering how long it was up on dse.
I saw this on DSE website yesterday but couldn't find a store with stock.
Post codes 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000, 6000 - No stock.
have you tried the rest? i.e. 1000, 7000, 8000 and 9000 :P
Sincereley,
The DSE StocktakerThis like finding an easter egg, probably some kind of easter promo from Dicksmith :)
Wow.
Computers are so cheap now-a-days.the older ones are

I used to have one of these
they run so slow and hot.
I gave it to my brother ;-)but I can't argue with $156.50
it's so cheap.
make me want to buy it.OzBargain poetry.
No stock, no bargain
Yep.. maybe snapped up my DSE employee's
There are so many DSE clearance deal lately, there are so little stock available.
Working at dse might be worth it….buy all the cheap bargains then resell on eBay for good profit….
Nine positive votes for something that cannot be purchased??
Beam me up Scotty…
One freakin big neg for this…
Yeah im fed up with dick smith / officeworks nonsence… they all need to wake up to themselves.
