I searched Cyperpower, so hope it's not a repost.
It's $165 on Amazon.

A mini-tower UPS with line interactive topology, the CyberPower PFC Sinewave CP1000PFCLCD provides battery backup (using sine wave output) and surge protection for desktop computers, workstations, networking devices, and home entertainment systems requiring active PFC power source compatibility.
The CP1000PFCLCD features an advanced multifunction control panel with a color LCD to quickly confirm status and alerts at-a-glance. The screen tilts for easy viewing when the UPS is placed in a low position such as under a desk. Two USB charge ports (one Type-A and one Type-C) power portable devices such as mobile phones and tablets, even during a utility power failure.
The CP1000PFCLCD uses Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) to correct minor power fluctuations without switching to battery power, which extends battery life. AVR is essential in areas where power fluctuations occur frequently. The CP1000PFCLCD comes with a three-year warranty (including coverage of batteries) and a $350,000 Connected Equipment Guarantee.

going price on other sites is $165, so saving about $35
note that this takes one 12v battery. the battery is about $20. so $20 of that $130 is the cost of the battery -- edit credit to PureDreams
batteries last up to 3-5 years, depending upon your power dips/outages.

It sucks because I passed on the costco deal for the larger older model in order to get the newer model.
On the other hand, proactively offering a full refund seems like good customer service and it is easy to see how it could happen since cyberpower seems to use the model number for both products.
Woot here. We messed up and advertised your CyberPower CP1000PFCLCD UPS as having screen tilt and two USB charge ports, but it actually does not have these features. Sorry about that! The rest of the specs and features are unchanged. If this is OK with you, great! Nothing else to do on your end and we hope you enjoy your item. If this is a deal-breaker, please let us know and we can assist with a return for a full refund. For return requests or further questions, we can be reached via email at [email protected] or by going through the Customer Service Support form on the website. Once again, we are very sorry for the inconvenience.

Woot customer service offered me 3 choices:
1) Return for refund.
2) Wait a few days for the vendor they received these from (presumably CyberPower) to see if they can make good on exchanging for the current model.
3) Take a partial $30 refund and keep the model they sent.
I will say that the model they sent isn't "OLD". This model was current until about September when they dropped a newer version in time for the holidays. Per Woot, the vendor sent them the wrong pictures and specs (which are the same except for the color LCD tilt screen and USB ports). Anyone who purchased this UPS from Woot should've received the email and if you contact them, you get the 3 choices above. It may drop down to 2 choices if the vendor won't replace with the current model.

We could have gotten the same one without USB ports on eBay for less!
I will ask them to price-match it or send me the label for a return.

Did anyone else get an automatic refund of $15 today?
Woot 1000VA option has the newer design, but not enough capacity for my use case.
Will stick with my non-sine wave 1300VA APC units for now.
However it's simulated sine wave - not sure if that matters to you or not.
Model Number is CST1500S - I was trying to search this model number on google for other stores other than Costco, but couldn't really find anything other than the warranty info on the Cyberpower website. Must be a Costco specific model or something.
