          Hijacking this comment(sorry plese) to warn ozbargainers-

          Each of these products are full price and/or sh*t-

          Hear me out-

          Item Why it sucks Normal price
          Sony Headphones They require sony phones/5 headphone poles to be fully functional. ~$45
          Google chromecast 2 It are cheaper elseware if you know where to look. ~$35 with good guys voucher
          Casio GShock Watch Why wear a watch which looks Like sh*t as a fashion accessory(orange? Seriously?) ~$100 from amazon
          Fitbit flex Honestly its outdated. Just buy a Miband 2( which has better specs+HR) which costs the same(if you account for shiping) ~$59
          Ray - bans True ozbargainers are not brain washed by name brands. You can find similar glasses for ~$5.99.(Dont give me that "protection" crap) ~$$100
          Dyson hairdryer Whoever buys a ~$600 hardryer stfu and give me your ozbargainer licence. You can buy hairdriers for cheaper ~$$600
          Bose headphones $300 is the the normal price. In fact you may even get them cheaper occasionally. ~$$300
          Go Pro hero 4 session ~$200 is the normal price and the camera apparently sucks. ~$$200
          CK Euphoria Apart from the shitty smell of all CK perfumes this is the normal price if you consider shipping. ~$$30

          That said there are some deals in there like the speaker which i can anecdotally can vow for the price.
          please dont spend your hard earned money on this crap.

          XOXO (LoL)

          Firstly I upvoted you because of your efforts…but…

          You seem to have gone out of your way to express quite a lot of subjective negativity here. Any reason?

          A lot of what you said is simply personal opinions and I'm just wondering whats your angle. Some people love the look of the G-Shock; Raybans are overpriced but they are gonna last a lot lot longer than a $5.99 ebay pair. Actually all name brand sunnies are overpriced but most of us here own a pair; GoPro has mixed reviews, a lot are good. Why pick the bad one? Gotta agree about the perfume but again it is subjective…some must like it!!

          @0p: >True ozbargainers are not brain washed by name brands.

          Oh sure I bet everything you buy does not have a brand on it and you are totally immune to marketing even though it relies on automatic processes that no one is aware of.

        • LSGH on 02/10/2016 - 13:16

          @Tm15: i have the session 4 and I think it is a good camera, not worth the original $400 but at $200, cant complain

        • blonky on 03/10/2016 - 14:58

          @obiwan:
          Normal price is $299 AUD
          Agree it's a really good buy at $200 - the guy on youtube was criticising that it wasn't good value @ $400 but at $200 it's a steal.

          Same features as Pro 4 Silver but without 1) Touchscreen LCD 2) Replaceable battery 3) 4k 15fps (which isn't usable anyway)
          Better because 1) Size & weight (cue helmet users) 2) Waterproof without any cases 3) Same quality for half the price

        • blonky on 03/10/2016 - 15:01

          @blonky:
          Also everyone note that the current version of the session 4 doesn't come with half the accessories such as rear mounted cage and ball joint. You get the standard bottom mount frame/cage, 2x 3M quick releases and 2 types of mounts
          Probably how they cut the price so much

        • unkown on 05/10/2016 - 10:49

          @0p:

          $200 is definitely not the normal price for the Go Pro Session. It's usually close to $300.

          And that review is bullshit because it's solely based on the fact that it's the same price as the Silver version when it simply is NOT; the Silver is double the price (I guess at the time of the review they were probably the same price ?). It's a shame that video review is one of the first google search results that shows up when searching for go pro session; this is one of the reasons I hate the internet.

          @furythree:

          I'm making no sweeping statements about them being more effective at blocking UV etc. I'm just saying the build quality and finish (and in certain cases the absence of swirls and other optical distortions) tends to make the Ray Bans a superior product that an el cheapo pair of sunglasses from Ebay (or a street hawker in Bali).

      • crentist on 24/09/2016 - 23:33

        yea it looks like them, NC31EM. I bought a pair for around $50 and they are well worth it if you have a compatible phone. i think they only work with a few sony phones, and if i plug them in my laptop i only get sound out of one ear because it has extra connections in the plug, and the laptop must not make contact at the right spot for both ears

        if you have a compatible phone these are pretty good though. they look just like any other pair of earphones, with no extra bulk or anything. the noise cancelling works pretty well, and is good feature when it doesnt cost an arm and a leg. really useful for study and work, or just listening to music on a bus without having to turn the volume up to drown out the noise. they sound decent too

        if you dont have a compatible phone these will be pretty useless though

    Haven't been impressed with COTD's offerings lately. They used to regularly offer a lot of extra discount - 30,40,50% off, usually - off their listed prices across various different sale areas.

    Could get some super deals then, made it worth trawling through their pages.

    Now, they might have the occasional low price headline item, and most of their products are not expensive, but not exactly bargains. I think they are trying to transition away from the big % off sales by the look of things.

      And the RRP appears to be doing exactly what was intended which is manipulating anyone* that sees it into seeing more value than they would otherwise.

      *It isn't everyone (for the same circumstance) but you have no way of knowing if it happened so the rational option is assuming it has. No one is immune to the effect occurring and the only way to avoid it is to not see the number. If it's printed in a deal the effect has occurred already.

        this is what Clare from COTD told me when I asked for the exact time for Fitbit:
        Unfortunately we're unable to confirm which items are on at which time during our birthday sale, however we recommend checking the site each hour when we release an item
