Anyone bought from them before?
"Allow up to four weeks for delivery " does it really take this long?

The deal is actually through Groupon. Well-known, and I've bought offers from them before. Unfortunately, yes, sometimes delivery does take a while. Never seen 4 weeks on the offers before, but yeah...
Already ordered one. The 1Ghz CPU is old news now, but I just want it for taking PDF's to lectures, and maybe some XBMC
Plus it has a USB port for flash drives, etc.opinionhated

You mean groupon? They're an international company.

Bought a bike gps from them last month, took about a week and a half. Remember they're basically a sales aggregator, so it depends on the supplier, and the clock only starts once the deal expires, hence they're just covering with "4 weeks".
also bought the bike gps on the 04/09
was just delivered before lunch today
was ready to be dispatched on the 14th though so not too bad

Guys, I mean this in the nicest possible way, but I am subscribed to this thread for hardware bargains, so if you going to have arb chat back and forth why not PM each other? Sorry if I am off the mark here and it seems like I got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning.
Hey guys, any deals on Wireless DSL Routers?
This looks like a good deal. Will 150 mbps be sufficient for home use?

Not BAD pricing, but really nothing amazing IMO. I have found that Onedayonly have gone to the dogs. Especially since that dreadful re branding exercise.
Those looks really nice but I bought a cipherwave model from them before and then I transferred the drive itself to my hpms and it was developed errors. CSSI wouldn't honour the WD warranty because I'd removed the drive from the cipherwave case. BS imo. Makro/Game have had 2TB seagate/wd in manufacturer enclosures for 1-1.1k recently.

Yeah I must say their deals aren't as super as they used to be. The 3TB isn't too pricey though.
Normally the HDD and the Encasing have separate warranties. I got my 2TB for R999 from Incredible Corruption 1.5 months or so ago. I think the 3TB drive is relatively cheap in this case though.
Yeah one would think so when the drive and the enclosure come from different manufacturers. I wouldn't really expect a seperate warranty when it's a sealed seagate/wd enclosure. I had a seagate 2.5 enclosure die but I removed the drive and it's still going strong.
