  Aliexpress will have it for this price but delivery could take anywhere from 2-6 weeks

  eglobal would be about $290-$295 delivered but you would probably have the phone in about a week. Depends if you are prepared to wait to save some $$$.

  I have the previous redmi note 3 which is excellent. Thinking of getting this version for my wife. Is this still the best bet in the under $300 price bracket?

    I just bought mine from eGlobal 2 days ago. Snapdragon, 3GB or RAM. $301. Already posted. It's not a bad price from a company I've dealt with before. They've been good previously, even though they've burned a few people here.

  Isn't the pro and the prime different yet similar?

    No. Stores getting their names confused from the previous Redmi Note 2 Prime.

    Current versions:

    Xiaomi Redmi 3 - Qualcomm
    Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 - Qualcomm
    Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 - Mediatek
    Xiaomi Redmi 3 Pro - Qualcomm

  Here are some unexpired deals at around $270 AUD:

  I'm thinking about buying this phone too. Maybe if AUD USD improves a little more…

  cant find any good deals without using the "free" shipping that can be anywhere from 15 days to 45 days

  eglobal $298 with express shipping (bad reputation tho)
  aliexpress $308 with dhl shipping

  should i wait for another better deal?

    One of the links I gave you above is for dealsmachine which has the phone at 220USD including express shipping which is about 295 AUD.

    you've had a bad experience with eglobal? or you're taking someone else's advice?

    • 

      vince088 on 07/05/2016 - 15:25

      havent experienced myself, just from reading around ozbargain

        It's fair to say that the good feedback far outweighs the bad. I've ordered several times and have never had troubles.

  This one was posted on whirlpool. $266.54 including DHL. I like the way it shows the comparison of all 4 note 3 models with $AU prices down the page a bit.

  Aliexpress - Dreami

      Have you decided to buy the phone yet? I'm thinking of just buying and then waiting 2-6 weeks…

        i have cash ready to buy the phone, i just want a good deal with it

        best price i found was dealsmachine around $280 with DHL express shipping
        but then someone said their phone comes with a modified ROM that you cant update

        i dont want to be flashing ROMS with a brand new phone

        so im still waiting for another good deal
