Saw this on their frontpage this morning, they have quite a few devices on sale till Sunday (29th of September), a few stand outs -

iPads (2nd and 4th generation)
iPad mini
Kindle 3G (Refurb)
GoPro
4TB USB 3.0 HDD
iPod Touch 5th Gen
Galaxy Tab 3

Some might warrant it's own deal posting, thought I'd post the 'weekend deals' page. Also, haven't compared prices, in a bit of a hurry now, apologies if they aren't good deals.

    Great deal on iPads.

  • Kampfer on 27/09/2013 - 07:59

    iPad Mini 16GB Wifi $296 and iPad 2 16GB Wifi $298 is the cheapest I every see from local retail (even online I think).

    +1 for that.

    • aec on 27/09/2013 - 10:02

      they are still selling ipad 2?

  • iBuzz7S on 27/09/2013 - 07:59

    iPad or Surface… I always end up getting something, only to regret it within a few weeks. Both the Mini and iPad 2 are really, REALLY tempting.

    • frondono on 27/09/2013 - 16:58

      iPad.

    • lasertip on 29/09/2013 - 12:46

      If you want productivity, go surface.
      If you want fun, apps and a tablet to walk round the house with, go iPad.

      The windows app store is almost non-existent, surface pro is too heavy to walk round with but the palm rejection stylus is a killer!

    Awesome deal!!!!!!!!

    APPLE iPod touch 5th Gen 16GB $169, save $80. iPod touch might not be popular, but for a new model, this is the cheapest like ever?

  • S3ISOR on 27/09/2013 - 08:01

    This is the best price I've ever seen on the 5th gen iPod touch as well.

  • Ahan on 27/09/2013 - 08:02

    iPads are cheap but only problem is these will be discontinued and replaced by newer models.

    • Kampfer on 27/09/2013 - 08:06

      iPad 2 may not make it to the next iOS update, but there should be pretty of life left for the Mini.

    • quarrymaster on 27/09/2013 - 08:07
      +1

      Still a good deal on the iPad 4th gen. Considering new iPads will have a price increase compared to their equivalent models just like the iPhone and iMac.

      • S3ISOR on 27/09/2013 - 08:10

        This is what I'm concerned about with the iPad Mini 2. The base 16GB model will probably rise to $399 or more when a new one is released next month.

        • carlenet on 27/09/2013 - 11:07

          If the iPad Mini 2 has a retina display and the faster A6X chip it's well worth the price difference!

    • adamwf on 27/09/2013 - 08:09
      +3

      So tell me, what doesn't eventually get discontinued and replaced by newer models??
      With your logic we should never buy anything as a new model will be coming out.

      Thx Op great post and the cheapest prices around for all these units ATM…

      • Ahan on 27/09/2013 - 08:13

        My point is this is great price at the moment, but when the new ones are released in a month, these prices will just become good if not average.

        • Smigit on 27/09/2013 - 08:35

          They might remain good prices. If the current trend is to go by after the price rises we saw with the iPhone and several of the Mac products this week, then iPads are prime candidates to see a price rise at the same time the new models are released.

      • tg on 27/09/2013 - 16:16

        If the newer model is with minor upgrades, then I will get the old one.
        If the newer model is with major upgrades, then I will get the new one.
        $100 is always justified for major upgrades (screen resolution, CPU, etc)

        • Ahan on 27/09/2013 - 21:38

          I reckon the update is major as the entire look will be changed. It will look just like iPad mini and iPhone 5

        • strangeloops66 on 27/09/2013 - 23:23

          It will look just like iPad mini and iPhone 5

        Just go in and ask for a price match.

        • WNK on 27/09/2013 - 11:34

          Does they match the price or beat the price by 5% as OW does?

        • GaelicAU on 27/09/2013 - 12:43

          They matched when I've bought from an Apple store.

        • tony2023 on 27/09/2013 - 12:46

          They said it is out of stock

    • rmk on 27/09/2013 - 17:51

      I tried but because the discount was more than 10% off their Price they wouldn't do it. Picked up one at Dick Smiths around the corner

      • rmk on 27/09/2013 - 08:38

        Bugger just tried with the mini bit they aren't in stock near me so no price match

        • unity1 on 27/09/2013 - 08:42

          Get the full sized one. The screen resolution on the mini is crap. I got rid of mine after only 1 day. Did you check availability of both white and black stock?

        • rmk on 27/09/2013 - 08:47

          I've already got a full sized one, want a mini for the handbag, I've used one before and found it fine ;0), yep the dude said both were back orders

        • carlenet on 27/09/2013 - 11:11
          +1

          I love my iPad mini. I've had my iPad 1 since launch, the kids have it now to watch videos/YouTube. I would never go back to a full sized iPad because the size of the mini is so convenient. I would honestly wait for the next update however as it'll be a HUGE improvement with a rumoured retina display and A6X chip.

    • Bilbo Bargains on 27/09/2013 - 09:08

      Trying to price match now. They dont have any instock of the ipad 4

      • unity1 on 27/09/2013 - 09:27

        OW don't sell ipads in their stores. Call them on 1300 office and organise the price match over the phone. Then pick up from your local store.

        • Bilbo Bargains on 27/09/2013 - 09:46

          I did they dont have ipad 4 wifi in stock she said

    • WNK on 27/09/2013 - 12:12

      Gave up the OW price matching.Bought one for $397 @ OW since DS it's temporary out of stocks.

    Was excited when I saw the Galaxy Tab 3 - but it's $21 more expensive than officeworks even :O Where on earth was the deal there? Free delivery? Lol.. @#$#@%

    Otherwise great deal on mostly everything else!

    • ranma on 27/09/2013 - 09:55

      Upon closer inspection, the listed price for the Galaxy Tab 3 8" is the RRP. So i'm hoping this tool of a webmaster hasn't updated the price yet? Hopefully they also give it a $100 off - in case anyone else is hoping to get a 'droid

  • sky6688 on 27/09/2013 - 09:07

    just price match with OW and 5% off iPad mini 16GB wifi white.

    Paid $281.2 and add 32GB usb flash price to hit over $300 for the TRS.

    Forgot to mention, needs to pick up in store and have to wait couple days for it.

    • Chopel on 27/09/2013 - 09:17

      did you go to store or you call OW?

      • k on 27/09/2013 - 09:34

        Call.

    • rmk on 27/09/2013 - 09:42

      They told me they were back ordered so I couldn't price match :-/

      • carlenet on 27/09/2013 - 12:51
        +1

        Looks like a blatant lie as they are showing in stock online now at the same price as DSE $296. Clearly they didn't want to take the loss through price matching and reducing an additional 5%.

    • eleana on 27/09/2013 - 10:14

      Yes. I was thinking that as well. Apparently they said they only price match the "original price", not the sale price.

      • snvl on 27/09/2013 - 10:26

        they were fine with the price but they are sold out. I didn't try the full size

        • eleana on 27/09/2013 - 10:39

    4TB for $169 is very cheap.

    Means 12 drives for a little over $2k.

      Its ok…they've been at that price in the past from both DS and OW…

      • snvl on 27/09/2013 - 10:28

        I haven't see that price for a while, OW has it for 219.

        • Bob81 on 27/09/2013 - 10:45

          What are the specs of these drives? Can they be removed? I'd prefer 7200RPM Sata-3 drives if possible.

  • sparkles on 27/09/2013 - 10:18

    Damn their website is terrible. The iPod Touch is available to click and collect except upon checkout it won't let you choose that option. It then states free delivery in the cart, however on checkout wants to charge $4.95.

    • videoman on 27/09/2013 - 10:24

      Just ignore the $4.95 postage and continue to the next step and it should remove the postage. I just bought one and it worked.

    Wasn't the Asus TF810C-1B059W on special for $599 this week? To now drop down to $350 is pretty good. Very tempted to pull the trigger, was looking at getting a secondhand note 10.1 but for $350 this asus tablet is hard to beat.

    • JayCeeJay on 27/09/2013 - 10:52

      i tried researching on this, is it a tablet or a notebook? typing TF810C is a vivotab not a vivobook

    • jasey_328 on 27/09/2013 - 10:52

      Yeah I have no idea why it's half price considering it was $599, but i bit the bullet and bought it. It's a Win 8 tablet, can't go wrong at that price and it's light enough as an ultrabook-style computer…

    This is not the first time Dick Smith resort to these dirty tricks of putting a very low price of an item and then put "Out of Stock" in the past Dick Smith had also done a Nokia N9 for $99 and then put "Out of Stock"
    By all counts, only a handful maybe less than 5 people will be able to score the deal and then it's over whilst the whole time it is "Out of Stock" No other retail store does that, only Dick Smith does that. It's unethical.

    • Bilbo Bargains on 27/09/2013 - 10:56

      • Dealayed on 27/09/2013 - 16:17

        Yeah really good price!! Not as good as the ebay group deal a few of us were lucky to be part of.. But still a good price for local stock with the ING & TRS cash back if eligible..
        Looking at the trend, a new model should be around the corner.. So hence the price drop..
