ASUS-UX303UA Ultrabook - £403 amazon.co.uk

Comments

    Looks to be a pretty decent deal for an i7 ultrabook - reviews are generally excellent.

    £403 on amazon uk - working out at about €480 I think - same laptop is €950 on laptopsdirect.ie.

    Might be a good back to school buy for someone out there.

    £753 showing here...

    I can confirm it was showing at the ops price a few minutes ago. Very short sale.

    Doesn't seem to be that price when I look at the link


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,268 ✭✭✭✭uck51js9zml2yt


    Looked at it earlier. All the prices have gone up

    Last night, or some time today? If the price momentarily dropped again today, maybe there's hope.

    checked with camelcamelcamel and doesnt show as ever being that price.

    Who is the seller. Its not amazon anyway.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,019 ✭✭✭ct5amr2ig1nfhp


    I saw both bargains earlier. The second was a just opened third party shop, so I'm guessing a scam. The first was probably a hacked account.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,730 ✭✭✭Balmed Out


    back again, what did you use for delivery?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,167 ✭✭✭messinkiapina


    Have one in my basket. Looks very dodgy though, completely new seller and all stock is ridic cheap. I guess Amazon would refund if there's a problem?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 496 ✭✭Enrico Palazzo


    Just check their other items - hundreds of super bargain laptops, cameras, smartphones.
    You can just forget it, none of that will be delivered.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,263 ✭✭✭Shlippery


    "Dispatched from and sold by !Artikel Neu!!."


    Everything about that store rings alarm bells!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,730 ✭✭✭Balmed Out


    yEAH DOESNT LOOK LEGIT.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,860 ✭✭✭Julez


    Amazon seem to be letting a lot of these dodgy sellers through their net right now. I think they take the money and run, amazon then have to refund you. Not 100% sure, but deffo some sort of scam in there.

    The customer won't likely get burned though.

    Did anyone order? Looks seriously dodge.

    I guess if Amazon will refund in the case of a scam it's almost worth a punt. No mention of warranty anywhere which would be another concern.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,568 ✭✭✭Irish_rat


    Fantastic laptop, the price too good to be true


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 579 ✭✭✭keyboard_cat


    Ordered one without checking out the seller or reading here. so got a bit nervous and got onto amazon chat. they said not to worry and i will be covered by their a-z guarantee if it does turn out to be fake. so we shall see


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53 ✭✭TheZPPanda


    Mine says it's coming from Christopher Tombs Ltd. Doesn't like very legit. Fingers crossed :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,167 ✭✭✭messinkiapina


    Did anyone actually receive one of these?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 579 ✭✭✭keyboard_cat


    I canceled my order the same evening didn't want to go through the headache of potentially having to try claim money back through amazon


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53 ✭✭TheZPPanda


    Did anyone actually receive one of these?

    Nope, scam as expected :P no issue getting my money back from Amazon as it hadn't gone to the seller.

    Can this be marked EXPIRED please!
