Notes
- Minimum $50 spend per transaction.
- Discount also applies to postage.
- A maximum discount of $100 applies to each transaction (Transactions totalling at least $666.67 including postage will give you the maximum $100 discount).
- Up to 3 transactions per person.
- Payment must be done through PayPal.
- Discount can be applied to items sold by overseas sellers, as long as you checkout on eBay.com.au.
- You can purchase multiple items (even from different sellers) in one transaction by adding them to your cart. However, make sure all items are in the same currency. Otherwise, you'll have to checkout in each currency separately and each currency you checkout with will count as a separate transaction.
- PayPal transactions will show the full amount after the purchase. However, if you login to your PayPal account, find the transaction(s), and click details, you will see a 15% contribution from eBay plus your actual charge to your funding source which makes up the difference. The total needs be 100% because the seller gets 100%. eBay just pays the 15% and you pay the rest. It should look something like this http://i.imgur.com/afbCvki.jpg (Image courtesy of ezarc - Obtained from previous 15% off offer).
- Items can be 'purchased' before the promotion starts (ie. Auctions ending before 10am Sunday). Payment is to be made during the promotion period with the coupon code applied at checkout.

I would go for a 2GB RAM model, which is not that expensive.
The Xperia Z seems good value for money ($278 after discount), but I decided to fork out an extra ~$80 on top of that for the Xperia Z1 (much faster CPU, better camera).
