    $39.98 reduced from $79.95.

    Nope…

    Reduced from $55.97

      Just appreciate the discount compared to the Bellroy website Advertising them for the $79.95 as mentioned. http://bellroy.com/wallets/slim-sleeve-wallet

        Bellroy website Advertising them for the $79.95

        This isn't the Bellroy website, and you claimed they were reduced from $79.95, but clearly they've been selling them for $55.97 at Surf Stitch for at least the last month…

    • +1

      Wow… your comment doesn't make sense to me. If a company has a progressive sale, which gets bigger and bigger % discounts each day, let's say an extra 2% discount from 20 to 22%… your argument is that the discount is 2%, not 22%?

      • +2

        If a company has a progressive sale

        They'be been selling them for $55.97 for at least the last month, and they have now reduced them to $39.98.
        Claiming a 50% price reduction is misleading

        • on their website, they claim "save 50%", which is exactly correct from the RRP. In my experience shopping for Belroy wallets, most places sell them for the RRP. Is there anyone else who sells them for $55.97? Are you claiming that is the normal price everywhere?

          @moksha:

          on their website, they claim "save 50%", which is exactly correct from the RRP.

          Comparisons…'

          It clearly states that it's 50% off RRP, which is entirely accurate.

          and also against the law if they have did not previously sell this item at RRP…

          It comes under Misleading Price Comparisons under the ACCC

          "when comparing a sale price to the recommended retail price (RRP) may be misrepresenting potential savings if the product has never been sold at the RRP"

        • @jv:

          I've read the information you've linked from the ACCC. Perhaps you would like to go to the effort of pointing out which part is actually relevant? Again, their comparison is accurate as the comparison is to RRP. Not to mention that RRP is the price that many other retailers sell these wallets for.

          I can't speak for moksha, but I often look for discounted Bellroy wallets, and don't think I have ever seen any of then on sale at Surf Stitch (unless it's with a generic percentage off code).

          Every single item on there is at RRP (excluding the 2 sale price items). Seems to be a fair representation, as even alternate colours of the same product line are at their RRP.

          @Linkwick:

          excluding the 2 sale price items

          'excluding' is the key word here…

          They are $10 cheaper than what they were selling them for previously, not 50% off…

          The fact that they're selling new on ebay for $35.98 delivered, shows you that the $79.95 price is truly misleading

        • @jv:
          So if they have never sold the item at RRP, their previous sale was a "lie" too then.
          It obviously went $55 > $40 only, so the savings from deal on March 5 are hypothetical too.

          Can you also please provide link of where it was on sale for a month at $55? Your cache link only snapshots on one day & time-point.

          JV is actually correct.

          Products must be compared against regular price. You can't sell a $1000 item for $800 everyday, then sell it for $700 and say "30% off!".

          They do follow up though if you lodge a complaint…

        • @jv:
          No jv, the keyword/acronym is "RRP". It is 50% off RRP. It is not misleading and it is not inaccurate. You are saving 50% off the recommend retail price, a price that other stores sell this wallet at. Just because some other retailers sell it for less, does not mean that it is not 50% off RRP and it does not mean that it's misleading.

          @TailsK:

          the keyword/acronym is "RRP"

          You obviously have difficulty reading the ACCC rulings…

          The only reason someone would compare to RRP, when they do not normally sell at RRP, is to mislead a consumer into believing they are saving more than they really are… Otherwise, why mention the RRP?

        as you can see from my first post, they reduced this from $55.97, and not from $79.95.

        When did they sell this item for $79.95 ???

          "Prefer honest advertising to decided whether or not this is a bargain"
          declaring in a public forum that a company is engaging in deceptive and misleading advertising is defamation and there is more than enough proof in this thread to show it. They are well within their rights to list the RRP as 79.95 as they have previously sold this item at this price before.

    I have a Bellroy wallet, albeit a different design. The slim wallets are design to be minimalistic and can only fit fewer cards compared to your traditional wallet. Hence it remains more comfortable when placed in your pocket. I for one, can't stand bulky wallets, and only carry the bare essentials cards wise.

    • For a slim wallet, I prefer the Big Skinny, more pockets and very thin.

          Each to their own, but the Big Skinny certainly aren't my taste too!

  • I have a Bellroy for about 3 years now, excellent quality (not one loose stitch, no break on the fabric inside, real leather etc) and very slim even with all my cards. But it hates coins, the slim profile is gone once you start to have a few.
