You reckon this was cheap, well check this out! Found this in the new BIG W Total Toy Domination Sale catalogue which starts next Thursday 25th June. Please don't ask how I got it so early LOL. If I have time, I'll scan and post the whole catalogue tomorrow. Now off to the footy. Enjoy :)

Full catalogue now online here

check stock availability after setting your location - thanks to CoolMJ
if the 530 has sold out then the 532 should be offered as a substitute at the same price

    Request
    Received an email from BigW:

    It has been brought to our attention that there is a post on your site by one of your users which is communicating confidential information from BIG W. The post relates to a BIG W catalogue which has not been made public and on embargo until June 20.

    We would ask that you have this post immediately removed from your site and all related social media mediums as it is unauthorised use of our copyright catalogue.

    Action
    As the post is a breach of merchant's embargo, the deal has been removed on OzBargain.

      Not sure what you're implying tonester?

      • +1

        your deal is likely to be unpublished :(

        on embargo until June 20

        • +15

          Oh well, so be it. First I've seen of that comment. What if the catalogue has already been delivered to my home?

          your deal is likely to be unpublished :(

          If the mods are upvoting the deal, it's good enough for me :)

          on embargo until June 20

          If it's on embargo, why do I (and others) have a copy of it? Where does it state this embargo on the catalogue? I highly doubt BIG W will sue the little delivery girl for delivering the catalogues a day early.

        • @tightarse:

          If I have time, I'll scan and post the whole catalogue tomorrow.

          you'll be fine then

          edit: Butthead has just saved you the time and effort :)

          probably electronically embargoed on lasoo and salefinder

          this and this were previously posted on the 13th/15th respectively, with notification of the takedown action being just before the latter

        • @tightarse:

          so how did you get it TA? just curious :P

          @CVonV:

          the little delivery girl for delivering the catalogues a day early

        • +3

          Got one today at the front entry of Kawana Big W. Had a ton of them.

        • NO NETFLIX, KMART deal is better value but get less votes? The high amount of votes only because Tightarse posted this deal?

        • +3

          @Davo93: If you want the phone but don't care for Netflix, this is the better deal.
          If you don't care for the phone but want/use Netflix, the Kmart/DSE deal saves you a couple of bucks.
          Obviously if you want the phone and you want Netflix, then Kmart is the better deal.

        • +4

          @Davo93: I did indeed get it for the Netflix, but the phone is hardly shit.
          It's well made, fast has a reasonable app catalogue. My son thinks it's great, it plays Terraria. For under $20, this is a great phone.

        • +13

          @Davo93: You don't like the phone, that's OK. However, others may think differently.

          BTW, keep the truth for yourself! No one asks you to insult the phone and people from other countries!

        • -8

          @721411:

          I don't like how the number of positive votes is based on the poster NOT the Quality of the Deal Imho. You may say that I'm not the judge of deal quality "the people are" but I see a significant discrepancy here. Any with half a brain would see that as well.

        • @Davo93:
          You know, not all the votes are for tightarse.
          some of that's for Telstra too /
          *reality distortion field alert *
          Gives all bargainers, a chance to act doubly as cuckoo.
          :)

      • Just tell em you saw the email after the sale finished lol

    • +19

      That is an abuse of copyright law. BigW should be prosecuted.
      Unless OzB has signed an agreement to the embargo, no action is needed.

      • +1

        The only thing they can complain about is 'using the image' as it's their catalogue photo being used without consent…mind you there are those 'artists' that republish photos taken by other people because they made a minor alteration (that instagram photo guy), so next time put a big highlighter through the text :)

        You could still publish the deal without the image if there's any dispute.

    • I received an email from Everyday Rewards about this promotion on 3:40 am Tuesday 16 Jun 2015. The catalog, however, has only been accessible through private links from the 3rd email sent by them at around 4:42 am this morning. As the catalog is still not available for the public so I'm not sure if this post violates the rules or not.

      Let Mods decide! :(

      OZBargainers would say thanks to tightarse anyway. :)

      P.S. Really, BigW?

      • As the catalog is still not available for the public

        • Lol. That was because Butthead posted that link for OZBargainers. The link was sent via email only to Everyday Rewards' members. The catalog is not yet published on BigW website.

          Correct me if I'm wrong.

        • +1

          @721411:

          it's as exclusive to edr members as all the other edr codes/deals on ozbargain :)

          ps i received the email but only checked just now

          http://image.email.everydayrewards.com.au/lib/fe971370756007…

      • thanks TA ..I'm pretty sure I know how he gets them early….Been there,done that.

        • +5

          Does it involve an electric winch, an air-conditioning duct, and spectacles with flashlights on the side?

      • +1

        Got neg(s)! For what?

    • +1

      My copy of the catalogue came in junk mail today around 9-10am, so it is out their in every house in my area with no embargo.

    • +8

      Please note, Stores have been told should they sell out of the Telstra Nokia Lumia 530, They can sub the Telstra Nokia Lumia 532 for $19

      • Is that a better phone?

        • +3

          Yes, way better.
          8 gb of storage
          slightly better screen
          1 gb of ram vs 512mb (so can run more apps)
          double tap to wake
          glance screen

          I'd get the 532 over the 530.

      • Can't find any mention of the 532 on Big W's website, even at full price.

        • I got the 532 today. Ticket price was $99.

        • Lady said they dont stock 532 maybe someones getting confused.

      • When i rang she said new stock damn, then said they dont have 532 :(, Maybe i can contact a store out of stock, does big W deliver.

        • maybe they've realised 532 is worth more than 530 and stopped selling it at $19.

      • -1

        I asked a employee in store if that was true and they said it ain't cause the 532 is $100 how do I get the 532 for this price as I wanna get one

  • +1

    But no netflix with this one.

  • +3

    Crap phone… but simply unbeatable for $19!

    • +5

      The screen is appalling!

      • +1

        Meh, it's $19. Just glad I don't have to buy a cigarette lighter and send smoke signals!

  • +23

    Now don't worry about unlock them, just buy one of each, tel$tra, optus and vodafone.

  • +1

    Bargain!

  • +2

    But it can't be unseen.

  • Thanks TA.

    This will be used as a hotspot ؛)

  • Can this phone be updated to mobile windows 10?

    • Yes

  • My bad already have two from previous deal….
    If no Netflix I shouldn't have bought the earlier ones as well….

  • I'd get another one if I can remember on the day.

  • +2

    You are a f*****g Gun TA.

  • +1

    Screen has poor viewing angles but overall it's a very good entry level/backup phone for $19.

    • +17

      I don't get the big deal with viewing angles… How often do you use your phone at 60°?

      • ^ LOL! This guy knows.

        I have been using my BENQ 24" 144Hz TN Panel for a year now and I absolutely love it. I get people asking me why I didn't buy an IPS panel and I face palm everytime. I rarely ever look at the screen from different angles.
        The only time I have ever needed good viewing angles is when I am presenting something to my peers or in the labs.

      • +7

        For me personally I don't really mind poor viewing angles as it provides a level of privacy.

        The issue I find with this phone however is when looking at it head on the screen still comes across slightly inverted. If you were to share content with others or when using the GPS it might pose an issue.

        • +4

          If you're a male teenager - definitely go with TN panels ;)

        • +4

          @montorola: And a hands-free kit? :)

      • +1

        I have this phone, which I bought to replace my Nexus 4. Technically the Nexus 4 has a much better screen, but it's ordinary battery life meant I had to have it dimmed most of the time. The 530 I can run at full brightness. I don't watch movies or play games though - just Twitter, Reddit, etc. I've never noticed the viewing angle thing either.

  • in this sale Ipad Air 16 gb is around $429 and ps4 bundle is $398….

  • -2

    And I just brought a $29 one last night.
    and I dont care about the netflix..

    • +36

      Where did you bring it to?

      • +1

        To his home.

      • +4

        Curious to know what he said now….haha.

        • +1

          You will never know,, Internet nazi

        • Hints: Believe me, you don't want to know.

        • @721411: lol.. why bother anyway. I can hazard a guess…"herp derp hur hur i dun nede gud engliss"

        • @yanman: ??? What did I just read?

        • @721411: "Hints: Believe me, you don't want to know." << "Curious to know what he said now….haha." << Comment unpublished. (Inappropriate) << Where did you bring it to?

          Make sense? :p

        • +1

          Haha I know what was said. It was stupid (and that was literally my response, "Stupid comment")

        • I saw the deleted comment so I know what happened there. I just don't understand what the person who responded to my previous comment means.

        • @721411: This replying system can get confusing sometimes. My reply was to GregRust (which is why there's no @username at the start of my comment), not you actually.

      132 pages is massive - I get magazines with less pages than that.

      • +8

        Do you read the articles ;-)

      • Any $3 games? :P

    • thanks and welcome to ozbargain :)

      hope the previews continue, unlike http://preview.lasoo.com.au…

    • Here's a link to the full catalogue.

      Thanks. Does this mean the 'embargo' is lifted and this deal is 'safe'? Is the link meant to be 'freely available' to the public?

      • I don't think it has been lifted yet. The link isn't available to the public.

    • Link was working but is down now.

      Edit: The link is working now. May have been a problem at my end.

  • Ripped off! I paid $29 for it.

    • Better sue

    • +3

      paid 37.50.

      h8lyf

      • You must have bought the Telstra Nokia Lumia 532 then.

        • nah its the 530.

          bought it like 8 months back when 37.50 was considered a steal . I know for a fact that my local BigW stopped stocking them

    • cc price protection

    • paid $39…………………………………………………… in December 2014.

  • +1

    How much for unlocking if we have any chance guys?

  • too bad I already claimed price protection on this one, otherwise I'd have saved another $10.

    • which cc? you can claim price protection more than once

      • 28 degrees, only once per item unfortunately, but it'd be over 6 month to claim anywat

        • I have claimed more than once on the same item. Price drop have to be $10 or more each time.

  • +4

    I don't need it I don't need it I don't need it I don't need it

    • +11

      Exactly. You can only buy what your username states unfortunately :(

      • +1

        Glad to see you are still alive mate! Thanks for that "other thing" you did for all of us ;)

        • +5

          Have no idea what you're on about lol
