Jaycar & Altronics catalogues delivered to your post box for free.

Order Jaycar catalogue here.

Order Altronics catalogue here. (Edit: Should you get a "No Cookie Support" error, please visit the main catalogue page, scroll to the bottom, and click "Order Printed Copy" on the lower right.)

Since the free Ikea catalogue is accepted as a valid deal, so I am posting these two catalogues for the electronics fans here. As a bonus you can also register for Jaycar's rewards card too.

These catalogues have nominal prices ($4.95 Jaycar, $5 Altronics) but I have never seen anybody pay for a copy.

    Thanks, always wanted one of these but could never justify when I can look it up online for free. Registered for one.

    • Utopian on 28/11/2014 - 19:33

      The Jaycar website lives in my top 3 for worst designed, hardest to search.

      I hate to say it… gimme the catalogue ANY day.

      • nothommus on 28/11/2014 - 20:54

        Yeah, its seriously badly designed. Has anyone received the catalogue yet?

        Thanks, I blame my S3 keyboard. Just drank a long neck also.

          Why is your S3 drinking long necks???

          @StewBalls: I hear that the iPhone 6s will be able to drink long necks

    I've certainly paid for Jaycar catalogues sometimes.

    Thanks, I used to buy these at the stores every year. Didn't know I could get one sent to me for free.

    • elusive on 01/11/2014 - 18:26

      Huh. At least the Jaycar one was free in-store last I checked.

        No, they just gave you one and didn't charge you. It's got a real price in the POS.

  • g12345567 on 01/11/2014 - 18:27

    • P.Sherman on 01/11/2014 - 22:30

      I don't think I've ever seen a Ozbargainer say this to a freebie

  • morpheu on 01/11/2014 - 18:32

    tbh, re paper version, i've been reading these cattledogs for years and i like something i can flip through whilst on the toilet, but i don't see the point these days, it's electronics, they change all the time, by the time the thing is printed and delivered half the stuff is outdated, furniture ok, kitchen items maybe, whitegoods so-so, but electronics/computer items, not so much, better to browse online site, or get it emailed and read on tablet

    • greenie4242 on 01/11/2014 - 22:22

      I find them useful still. You can't search online for something if you don't know it even exists. Flipping through a catalogue will show you things you don't even know to look for in an online search.

      My eyes were opened when I visited electronics shops in Seoul, Korea and saw electronics items I'd never even dreamt of! Jaycar has a pretty good stash of bits and pieces, but nothing compared to the retail electronics parts warehouses overseas. Now that I know those parts exist (and know they're not available in Oz) I can order them online from overseas.

        I find them useful still

        That's quite open-minded for a greenie. :)

      • retiredfeline on 02/11/2014 - 12:18

        Can you recommend some overseas sites? I find the local shops sorely deficient too.

    • syousef on 02/11/2014 - 14:01

      You can't use a tablet while sitting on the loo? Or is the paper catalog more useful in case you run out of toilet paper???

  • SpaceNinja on 01/11/2014 - 18:35

    I propose we create a wiki for free colorful, printed toilet paper and update this one and the ikea catalogue deal there.

    Oh COME ON.

    Another free catalogue posting? Meanwhile, my Macca's deal got relegated to the forums?? #BS

      It was a competition… That's why…

      • itsfree on 01/11/2014 - 19:26

        And none of these free catalogues are deals, much less deserving to be on the front page.

        • jv on 01/11/2014 - 20:52
          +8

          This is a paid catalogue that you can get for free…

        • PVA on 02/11/2014 - 14:02

          @jv:
          but you can always get one free. online or go instore and they will give you one. I never had to pay for one before even if there is some price on the cover.
          Same was when Dick Smith had catalogues, could always get it free in store even if it had a price on the cover.

        • eug on 02/11/2014 - 16:20
          +2

          @PVA: Nope, my Jaycar didn't give them out for free if you just walked in.

          They would give them out if you made a big purchase though.

    • [Deactivated] on 01/11/2014 - 19:28

      Yeh because these are healthier.

    • Fobsessive on 02/11/2014 - 01:08

      I didn't know of the Maccas game app/deal til now. I totally agree with you!

    Im still sad that Jaycar is the new Dick Smiths, but at least Altronics is the new Jaycar now. :P

  • wog_ta on 01/11/2014 - 18:53

    Thanks mate, I've always paid for the catalogue, they even know my face when I walk in, never have they offered me a free catalogue so cheers..

    • PVA on 02/11/2014 - 14:02

      what store?

  • djlech on 01/11/2014 - 19:45

    Nice deal, thanks.

  • IVI on 01/11/2014 - 19:47

    So, can we download the new catalog, someday…?

      Jaycar Australian PDF catalogue (214 MB)

        That's awesome. Much better than a paper catalogue. Wish I could shout you a beer or soft drink or something.

      • conio on 02/11/2014 - 18:49

        also the sign up is for the 2015 Jaycar catalogue .. can you download the future ?

        • eug on 02/11/2014 - 18:51
          +2

          Yes. You can also buy things from the future. Just go to your local newsagent and ask for a 2015 diary.

        • alvian on 02/11/2014 - 19:29

          When I signed up for the 2015 Jaycar catalogue using the web page in August, a copy of the 2014 catalogue arrived in my mail box. Jaycar publishes its catalogue around April.

          So who knows if you will be getting a 2014 catalogue in 2 weeks, or a 2015 catalogue in 5 months.

        • eatwell365 on 29/11/2014 - 22:21

          Can also prepaid funeral nowadays. Sadly speaking, it is quite popular.

  • This Void on 07/11/2014 - 14:57

    I'm a regular Jaycar customer, how is Altronics different? Is it just pricing, stock, etc? Also yes, I have paid for Jaycar catalogues a few times except when they were giving away last year's leftovers ;)

    • alvian on 08/11/2014 - 15:06

      Less toys.

  • octagonalman on 10/11/2014 - 21:35

    There's also the RS Components catalogue. http://au.rs-online.com/web/generalDisplay.html?id=help&file… They're also good with shipping… in being free.

    • marcozmitch on 23/11/2014 - 02:13

      Seems to show as the "It's Here! The New RS 2013 Catalogue"?

  • [Deactivated] on 17/11/2014 - 01:14

    Has anyone received this yet?

    • alvian on 17/11/2014 - 11:46

      Which one? I have received both Jaycar 2014 and Altronics 2014 catalogues. I have not ordered RS Components. However, I did order the catalogues before I posted the deal here and the subsequent flood of requests.
