You do get 10k just need use right link, you can even do in store.

Ah, yes, you have to click the trade in button on this page:

If you just follow the same link from MyBB, you get R1600. Unless you clicked the button before. They probably store/check some cookie.

Scythe SCFM-2100 Fuma 2 Rev.B from Wootware @ R899 pre order
Upgraded with two new Kaze Flex II fans and LGA 1700 mounting bracket Tech Powerup info

Jokes aside, this is a very good cooler at this price, 1.5K if you buy it from Amazon, so Woot is definitely doing a good deal on this.

That cooler is Gamers Nexus approved as well, so definitely a decent product.

And the RevB fan spins 300rpm faster, so it now performs even better than the original Fuma 2 they reviewed.
Makes me sad. didn't see the fuma 2 was in stock at the time I bought my i5-12400 for my work pc so i bought a mugen 5 for +-R100 less. For a +-R100 I get an extra fan and better heatsink. The mugen 5 is still a good cooler but not worth it and only if your case doesn't support the larger Fuma 2.

MikroTik hAP ac2

Router with 5x GB Ethernet ports, AC Speeds, POE, USB and Router OS all for R360? Not sure if this is a bargain or if there's some kind of catch, I ordered two, since these sell for over 1k at other places.

It has been slowly dropping in price in the last 2 months, with at least 4 sellers on takealot sitting at around the R400 mark. Old stock of some sorts?

... Or did it fall off the back of a warehouse truck?

Mikrotik famously make full featured devices for very reasonable pricing. It used to be because they used the same OS / software for all / most of their devices so the low-end ones get the same features as the high-end ones but are maybe slower, have fewer ports etc. (Haven't looked at these for a while but it's likely still the case)

You can compare prices at Scoop to make sure tho.

Scoops price is R1325 - model number the same as on takealots site. :unsure:

RBD52G-5HacD2HnD-TC​


Senetic sells the included PSU for R116 - that means the router is R250 ish - that's the price for a standalone 5 port gigabit switch - without AC wifi. :oops:

We uses the routers extensively for work. Bought about 40 from takealot... because that deal...

Something is definitely off with them however, they have some weird config, all routers have to be netinstalled before hand. Have some random password and non-standard IP/DHCP Server config. So far so good after the netinstall however
