Looks like anything listed as a 'BBQ' under the BBQ category will be entitled to a 50% off discount this sunday! (Max $250 discount)

"The offer entitles you to a 50% discount off the total purchase price (excluding postage) of BBQs in the BBQs category on www.ebay.com.au purchased during the Offer Period."

Hopefully we see some other stuff listed in the category too (assuming that works).

WARNING:
eBay have just added this line to their T's and C's:

eBay reserves the right to disallow or reverse a discount in circumstances where it believes a sale or purchase of any BBQ or other item as part of this sale has not been made in good faith. This includes any collusive conduct by buyers or sellers or any other conduct which eBay considers to be unfair or untoward.

(Thanks JDF)
Be wary of buying items that aren't BBQ's in the category with the discount!

Regardless, anyone after a BBQ should check out eBay this sunday!

  • 1 transaction only (per account)
  • Multiple items per transaction allowed
  • $250 max discount ($500 spend)
  • Must pay with PayPal
  • Must purchase during the offer period (Sunday)

          @stemcell: Someone else said it does :S has anyone done it successfully, I might just have to purchase on separate eBay account.

        • yacman on 31/08/2014 - 21:11

          @Ahan: Thanks mate, chatting to eBay support now to confirm

        • yacman on 31/08/2014 - 21:47

          @yacman: Turns out you cant pay for an item without a freight response, so since the seller is not replying I can't purchase the item, it seems like a flaw in the sale since I am not trying to abuse the system unlike many others. But most BBQ's are going to be freight, so how are we suppose to purchase these items on a Sunday when it is not a day of business?

          So after asking if I could get the item discounted tomorrow when I get the freight quote back and trying to come up with a solution with online support, they said it's not possible and ended the chat before I could reply :|

        • saverman on 03/09/2014 - 08:15

          @yacman: Took almost half my day with back-and-forth between store and eBay but I ended up being promised that I'd receive 50% credit after I got the full invoice and paid in full (which happened Monday). Can't confirm the credit yet, however.

    • Dlite on 31/08/2014 - 21:10

      T&C state 1 transaction per account. Read the OP.
      Good chance discount will get removed from everything apart from the first transaction.

    Anyone found any decent 4 or 6 burners for pickup in Melbourne. There were some good ones available in Sydney earlier, but postage was too much.

  • Trueno on 31/08/2014 - 20:57

    Is tom_9_8_7 an ozbargain member? The guy has sketchy feedback and now has sold over $170,000 worth of weber BBQs… If he is drop shipping from masters that about $18,000 profit…

    • bennyboy on 31/08/2014 - 21:02

      I emailed this seller as I was sceptical whether he could meet the demand - this is the reply i got:

      Hi mate.

      I do hope so. I am drop shipping through a major Australian bulky goods retailer. Maybe my cashback BBQ would be more to your interest as that is guaranteed in stock and then with the cashback you can select the BBQ of your dreams. Check it out at http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=171440…

      Cheers

    • smackus on 31/08/2014 - 21:10

      also he forgot about the 50% discount with max $250 off.
      eg he's asking $540 for the Q2000 and states the following in the item description
      "allows the buyer to pay only $270"

      actually it's more like 5.5-6k profit, since he's offering express shipping. (assuming he actually delivers it by express)

    • zone on 01/09/2014 - 06:34

      I bought one from him for $230 for weber q2000 though after seeing he has sold more than 300 of them, I am kinda skeptic now. Anyone else bought from Tom?

      • zone on 01/09/2014 - 10:20

        Just got a generic email from Tom saying he will process the sale through appliances online. Looks legit till now.

        • jlogic on 01/09/2014 - 10:39

          Well at least the buyers will know that they get warranty then. Wonder if he approached AO first to organise this.

  • farfromparadise on 31/08/2014 - 21:19

    Looks like all the $339 Weber Q200/2000's are gone. TGG/BCF don't look like restocking and the cheeky bugger in Brisbane/Springwood has started raising his price and has ridiculous postage…

    Or maybe just me

      never knew masters offers drop shipping? Can you provide a link for more information?

    • murkywater on 31/08/2014 - 21:53

      Since when does masters do drop shipping?

      • Trueno on 31/08/2014 - 22:00
        +2

        Masters have the stock on hand and he is placing orders and putting the buyers address down as the delivery address. Masters don't drop ship. But I don't think he is using masters as they don't list the new Q2000 or Q1000 on the site.

          This guy himself has cost ebay $100000.

And now reading all this I feel sick….1. cos I might not get my much wished for weber, and 2. for being so stupid as to be potentially conned (am not very ebay savvy). All I can hope for is that if he does supply any, that he does it on a first served basis as I got my order in at 10.01am. I will keep you posted.

          @Hen: Hey, there's no need to feel bad about it. You're getting it cheaper, and he's making some money. The only loser is ebay, and who cares about them.

          Worst case scenario is that you don't get it supplied (=refund), or that you have to wait a few weeks.

        • jlogic on 31/08/2014 - 22:47

          @Hen:
          Yeah dont worry too much Hen.
          Hopefully he was placing the orders as they came in. If so you will probably be OK. Its as the day wore on and the numbers went up that supply issues could turn up. The very worst thing that could happen with PayPal is nothing IE a refund but no loss.

        • Hen on 31/08/2014 - 22:50

          @jlogic: wish I had have too. TGG postage rates bugged me at the time (they're just up the road), but I should certainly have overlooked that now it seems. Well, fingers crossed I do eventually get my BBQ.

      • jlogic on 31/08/2014 - 22:42

        I will laugh if he needed to fufil the order because eBay didn't want negative press and withheld the promo from his PayPal account.

        • 1Dollar on 31/08/2014 - 22:47

          how can he fulfil all 293 Q2000 when appliances online don't even have that many stock on hand. Unless appliances online order more from Weber, which delays delivery time.

        • NosDan on 31/08/2014 - 22:51

          @abracadabra: dont forget he had 45 days to fulfil the orders

        • 1Dollar on 31/08/2014 - 22:55

          @nosdan:

          From my point of view, you might disagree. But he says delivery should be expected between 8 and 10 Sep. No way I am waiting up to 45 days only lodging a PayPal claim. It is his responsibility as a middle man to put a limit of orders he can fulfill.

        • King Tightarse on 31/08/2014 - 22:57

          @abracadabra:
          yeah 293 Q2000's in boxes would take up a lot of warehouse space.
          Highly unlikely to be on hand and ready for dispatch

        • NosDan on 31/08/2014 - 22:58

          @abracadabra: while i understand your point, the rules say he has up to 45 days to have it at your door step. assuming he sends them registered so can prove they are on there way to you you have no leg to stand on if you claim goods not received

        • 1Dollar on 31/08/2014 - 23:10

          @nosdan:

          If that's eBay rules, I guess time will tell what he will do with those extra load. Favs the listing and his eBay page, and I am suspecting either negs will fly in or his account will be ban.

          EDIT: He is cunning it used to be $460 for the Q2000, he increased the price to $500.

          @abracadabra: his account will not get banned, i have seen FAR worse sellers doing FAR dodgier stuff who are still trading on there, as for negs? so what? if hes used an account with 80 pluses and made $30k from it today alone… throw it away and spend a grand making another account selling cheap shit at a loss simply for pluses?

        • babecake on 31/08/2014 - 23:22

          @nosdan: I highly doubt he'd be able to withdraw the 30k from paypal. In my experience if you have more than 1k in your paypal, it gets limited until you can send in ID and other documents because of this irregular activity. His ebay account may be ok but im pretty sure his paypal account is screwed.

        • NosDan on 31/08/2014 - 23:25

          @babecake: no your absolutely wrong. i have had over $1k in my PP before and have never given them my ID etc (they keep asking me, but cant force me). the only thing i cant do is close my PP account…… tho when ebay/pp got hacked a few months ago and someone tried to take $400 out of my PP account i could block PP from taking money out of my bank account with out any issues.

        • NosDan on 31/08/2014 - 23:57

          @bigticket: probably around 8 pallet loads? which is maybe around 3m2 or 4m2 of floor space in a warehouse (assuming they stack high enough as i have experienced in warehouses)

          edit: more importantly, being that ive been involved in importing container loads of stuff, its probably only maybe 1/10th of a container load?

        • King Tightarse on 01/09/2014 - 00:05

          @nosdan:
          I wonder what amounts of stock onhand would be considered reasonable and normal for an item like this? I have no idea about warehouse logistics at all.Comment above was just what I 'reckoned'. Lol

        • NosDan on 01/09/2014 - 00:13

          @King Tightarse: at least in my experience they dont import so much on stock level as such, they import "just in time".. in other word they only import to try and keep minimum stock levels… but…. they will only import a whole container load of stock… but that container maybe be every item they sell or even shared with other importers as well.

          id have to go back and check the actual cubic capacity of a 40ft container, but it holds a LOT of stock, and all these self assembly items are designed to fit best in a container and within other freight options. its no accident that no matter what you buy its all a fraction of pallet/container size.

Not sure I want to click commit to buy without being able to enter the code and see that it discounts first.. this normal? Second, is the code still valid… approaching 11pm.

      you can add it to your cart first, then go through your cart and use the coupon before committing i beleive, at least that worked for me earlier

        Cheers, that worked. The code still works as well.

        One final question if you can help me out. This particular listing does not mention if it is LPG or NG. In fact it has sweet — all info. Likelihood of it being NG? I can't exactly ring up and ask now..

    I wasn't going to buy anything since all the good stuff was sold out (and because we don't really need a new bbq), but couldn't help looking real quick before going to bed. Now with the q2000 at $200 (after discount) with local pickup, it's too tempting, argh. A little bit worried about size, but maybe it's good enough since the entire area is supposed to be even temperature. Can always buy a (cheap?) cart later.

    EDIT: aaand bought for $199.50. Can't really argue with the price, hopefully the Weber lives up to all the hype.

    Whats the grill dimensions of the Q100?

    • pulse on 31/08/2014 - 23:33

      Q100

      • Total Grilling Area Approximately 1200cm2

      as mentioned it is 1200cm2. However, the q200/2000 is 50% bigger at 1800cm2. Currently it seems like the smaller one is $145 and the medium one is $200. If you are able to pick up locally, it seems to me that the Q2000 is a better buy (unless you specifically want a really small one of course, for camping etc). Either way, they both seem to be in stock now (pending on your location).

        Nope, im actually after the actual width and length of the grill. Can't seem to find any info on it.

        I got the q100 from good guys and want to know if my hotplate fits on it.

  • pulse on 31/08/2014 - 23:28

    Cheers guys, bought it. I noticed the NG version retailed for a bit more. Was just cautious because the dude (chick), let's be honest, dude, has like 4 lines in the description, wouldn't put it past him/her to leave that out. He also has the same model listed for $100 dearer… lol I dunno?

    and the Q1000 for $289..

    Seems like a reasonable seller with over 1000 reps and a bricks and mortar biz. Will find out soon I guess.

      Yeah, looks like a proper store from what I can tell, just bought the same one. I assumed it was LPG since the description was lacking in information.

  • fez on 31/08/2014 - 23:49

    been wanting a weber for ages, great deal.
