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.
They know we are a bunch of tight arses on here
 
So where is the hardware bargains or do I have to be that guy and report posts as off-topic; should have been trade-ins? :ROFL:

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.
 
Any good deals on fast charge powerbanks, 10k or 20000mah? Tx
Check this out on takealot: Huawei CP11QM 10000mAh Micro-B Quick Charge Power Bank

Bought last week. Normal USB out though. Works well.
 
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.

- PoE Input: 18V-28V (Passive PoE)
- PoE Output: None

So it can't power any poe devices?

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?

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

Good deal, actually dont need wireless will just disable it.

Just need limit upload speeds, rain 5g dies if you max the upload
