      10% on MSY prices which are already dirt cheap (and almost always the cheapest in Australia) is bloody huge.

  • Does the 10% off cover HD docks, enclosures?

    • Unfotunately nope :(

  • +1

    Does the 10% off HDD's include external HDD's? Assume so but just checking

    • +1

      Yes, include external HDD

  • I just bought from there, I wanted to know are they already discounted from the online website or do they discount them off whats on the website?
    Because the guy told me the prices online are already discounted, but I've been waiting for a hdd to drop prices and it hasn't for a few months

    • Listed prices on the website/PDF price list + 10% discount on top.

      • Technically that's not true.
        If an item forms part of another sale, even if it's not identified on items page, the discount won't apply.
        You can either mind read or waste time chasing this info up, or waste even more time finding out in store.
        Case in point:
        Asus VC279H listed price is $259 (no mention of sale on the page)
        MSY won't honour their 10% off All monitors, due to it being on the 'deal of the day' page.

        • +2

          He did say "we will honour all the special prices( except clearance items)" so for the monitor list as $259 should get 10% on top of it. They won't do it so it's misleading.

  • should be online and instore not just instore only.

    not fair

    • Next time :)

      • Wait so we have to go in and order the stuff instore or can we just order online and go pick it up?

        Sorry, haven't bought stuff from MSY before and looking to put together a replacement gaming PC.

        • Comment from OP:

          Yes, you can just place an pickup order at full price and pick up instore with 10% discount on top (during promotion period)
          https://www.ozbargain.com.au/comment/4115838/redir

          You can also add a comment when placing an order asking staff to confirm the price will be 10% less due to 20th Anniversary.

        • You can also order via email.

          1) Check the store stock status on the web site
          2) Email the store with a list of items you wish to purchase.
          3) Wait for a reply from store. They will confirm with stock status and order number.
          4) Once an order number has been issued they will hold the items and give you 48 Hours to pickup order.

  • So, take 10% off the prices in the PDF, yes?
    Or does it already include the 10%?

    • 10% off the PDF

    • +1

      listed price from PDF + further 10% discount on top

  • +1

    Just a small warning to everyone:
    I just bought a mechanical keyboard from Hurstville NSW branch, the prices still haven't been adjusted for this 10% sale yet and the staffs weren't even informed by the management until this morning. The helpful staff has been kind enough to manually apply the 10% discount for my item.

    • +1

      We have fixed the pricing issue. Really sorry about that

      • +3

        Don't lie. I'm standing in line waiting for the price to be updated. It's been over 10min and the line is only getting longer.

        edit: Finally the line is moving

        • Haha, sorry for your long wait. Luckily there was only me waiting for the discount at Hurstville branch. The staff was dreading what was happening at the bigger Auburn branch, he predicted long line of frustrated customers waiting in the queue.

  • Darn, no 16tb my book duo.

  • How busy is the Auburn store right now?

    • +10

      Tried to call them but no one pick up the phone, not sure if they are still alive or not :(

      • +2

        Tried to call them but no one pick up the phone

        Well at least you know you've called the right people LOL

      • Hi Rep, I am interested to know this as well. I have placed an order online for pick up at the Auburn store. Hopefully they will reserve the stock for me before I could go there after work.

      • +1

        they never pick up the phone

  • Any 34inch monitor is on good deal?

    Any recommendation?

  • Is there 10% off on top of specials? Like BT headsets alrdy discounted?

    • Got charged the parts.pdf price for Jabra Steel, no 10% off… Rep, whats goin on?

  • Is there any SA store where I can see a monitor displayed before buying? I want to get two of the VP2770 but I wanted to see the bezel size and ideally see them running. Thank you.

  • +7

    Made spreadsheet of the HDDs . Dollars per terabye (Right side). Lower the number, the better value.
    Left side is the actual $ cost unconverted
    Avoid Seagate if you can.
    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1LlwZHakSu_3f9bLRdtDP…

    • nice! just to clarify for those wondering, that's without the 10% off.

    • Whats wrong with seagate?

      • Not as reliable as the other brands.
        More economical to buy them however if in mass volume and setup in redundancy, but 99.9999% of us don't buy HDDs in mass volume.

    • Thanks for the hard drive Google spreadsheet buddy.

  • +2

    well done msy. keep up the hot prices that make you mad.'

    • Thank you :)

  • is network gear (e.g. router, usb wifi adapter) included?

    • Not this time but we will run a sale on networking really soon :)

  • I must confess to being a Radeon Fan.

    Any thoughts on getting the 4G RX 480 Sapphire NITRO+ for $315?

  • Are backorders instore only or includes online pickups?

    • You may need to visit the branch so that they can organize the back order for you.

  • +1

    Just a word of warning to everyone - I tried to purchase 2 x Asus VC279H monitors from Varsity Lakes earlier and was refused the 10% off due to the monitor 'being on sale' already.
    I've sent a PM to the rep, and an email to [email protected]
    Really annoyed as I'd clarified earlier over PM to the rep, and the store assistant wouldn't even read it as it wasn't the MSY website.
    2hours of my time wasted ….

    • -1

      The 10% discount does not stack with items on the "deal of the day" list.

      There's already a disclaimer which says "not in conjunction with any other offer".

      • Toohy. Read my post.
        The rep has confirmed it does apply.

    • Hi Boyo, my apology. It looks like the system won't let us stack up any discount on top of this monitor anymore. Really sorry about this confusion.

      • It would've been great to know this prior to wasting my time - that was the whole purpose of confirmation via PM.
        Just some feedback here - it's a bad way to run a business. I certainly won't be shopping at MSY anymore, and I'll do my best to discourage others by communicating my experience.
        If I didn't know this monitor was on the 'deal of the day' list, where does it tell me on the webpage that it's actually on sale and your 10% off wouldn't apply? It doesn't state anywhere. You have to be a mind reader, or go chasing all the other offers.
        Ridiculous.

        • +6

          He made a mistake, he apologised, he should've checked and done better but mistakes happen. Put you in a crap spot chasing tail for mythical 10% off but **** happens.

        • +3

          Yeah I think it's great he apologised.
          Still pretty pissed off wasting 2hrs of my time though.
          As everyone knows MSY isn't a place to go for customer service. I should've known better.

    • Lol thanks for confirming. Won't be considering this budget 27" anymore.

  • Hi rep,

    In regards to the Noctua CPU coolers for smaller cases - do you stock the NH-U9S, NH-D9L coolers? I only see the NH-U9B SE2 which is not natively supported on socket 1151. Regards

    • For small case, We only have the NH-L12 for $74 (was $83 before 10% OFF).

  • +1

    Congratulations to MSY for turning 20…

    Interested in participating in OzBargain's 10th Birthday Sale Event? :)

    • Hi Scotty, I have passed your message to my manager and he will be looking at it as soon as he can. Thank you

  • Asus pq279q?

  • Called 2 MSY stores in my area and neither responded, nor will the rep on OzBargain. Looks like PLE is getting my $$ even if it means paying a bit extra.

    • -1

      Well MSY is known for their prices, not their good service.
      But seconded, I'm heading to CPL

      • +2

        You have to be joking…
        CPL have the worse service ever.
        Lots and lots of issues with CPL… check out the whirlpool threads on them..

        Never had any issue with MSY.. so long .. you know what you are doing and you've done all the appropriate troubleshooting beforehand..
        Always got my refunds / replacements for DOA item.. and warranty done done in the timely fashion - around 4 weeks for items that develop faults later.

        The following is one number of experiences.. I've with CPL.. I've pretty much stopped buying anything from them now..

        Pay for an item..wait for 30 minutes for them to find the item..

        Item was obviously secondhand used..
        Before leaving the store. I request a replacement "new" sealed item..

        They claim that all stock is like that.
        I try to confirm with them.. that if the item doesn't work.. I expect a replacement or my money back.. which they strangely refuse.
        I demand money back then (before ever leaving the store).
        They make me fill out an RMA form (for item that NEVER left the store)
        90 minutes later walk out the store empty handed..
        Held off the PCDIY in Box Hill.. and buy the same identical item sealed and new.. for basically the same price.

    • +1

      MSY never answer phones. It's just how they operate.

  • All this discussion about PARTS.pdf and no commentary on how you find a store using the Melway or UBD. I haven't seen either of those books for more than a decade.

  • How long was your queue guys? In minutes and also how far outside the door the line began at.

    • +1

      Adelaide store in and out in 10 minutes with the only Fractal R5 Black left in stock. So happy I got it.

      • +1

        R5 is an awesome case ! Congrat on your purchase !

    • +1

      WA Balcatta store, I was also in and out in 10 minutes with only 1 person in front of me when I got there and 2 people serving.
      Picked up a lot of parts to built myself a new micro gaming comp. Friendly service with helpful info about the parts I chose. Decent discount, no complaints. Thanks guys! Great deal, Happy Anniversary :)

  • +1

    Cool… picked up a ItX GTX1070 for $553… today
    Call the store before hand to confirm stock.. got it put aside.. picked it up 30 minutes later
    No line in the store at all…!!!!

    Found the gears of War promo..
    Entered my details.. now waiting for my code..

    On the aside.. the 10% off.. doesn't appear to apply to stuff on the clearance list already… Was prepared to buy a clearance case.. as a spare.. but.. still at the same price..

    • Hi Kevin, 10% OFF applies on clearance items as well. Which branch did you visit ?

  • +2

    Just in time for me to put together my new gaming PC. I love my old girl but she's 6, gotta move on. Be strong now.

    • Install minecraft on your old gaming rig and give it to her, everyone happy.

      • +1

        Lol, I was calling my old PC "my old girl". I've had her for 6 years.

        Rofl.

  • Balcatta WA store is having problems with EFTPOS.
    Make sure you have cash.

  • Does the sale end at close of business on Monday?

    • +1

      Yes, it is correct

  • Picked up my 1080 Xtreme from MSY yesterday, $980 is cheap for local stock, local warranty considering delivered from amazon it was around $960~aud.

    The Gigabyte Xtreme cards come with a 4 year warranty if you register it not the standard 3!

  • I want to pick up a 2nd MSI GTX 1080 Seahawk X. But my first world problem is it won't fit in my case (Thermaltake Elemental S). Can I make it work? If not which case do I buy?

  • +1

    Walked in wanting a 1070 and walked out with a Gainward Phoenix 1080 for $854 which seems a pretty good deal.

  • Just checked online for all the parts for my new PC and it is showing that every single component I want is out of stock !!!!
    (Cannington Store).

    • Just walk into the store and ask them to do back order for you (payment need to be made in full first)

      Thank you

      • Done - though they didnt know about this option and I had to get them to look up this page.

  • Is the discount supposed to be auto applied at POS? Just picked up a new Gigabyte motherboard and on getting home realised I was charged full price??? I had pre-ordered an Asrock board at the start of the week but apparently online orders haven't been working at Fyshwick all week so had to make a quick decision on an alternative without knowing the original prices.

    Also I overheard another customer being told that the discount didn't apply to NAS HDDs, any reason for that? I thought it is all HDDs except SSD?

    • NAS HDDs are also discounted.

      • Ok good to hear about the NAS HDDs.

        Any reason why I was charged full price for the Motherboard? Can I go back to the store to have this corrected?

      • I just returned from wasting half and hour at MSY Fyshwick who are explicitly saying NAS HDDs (which is a lot of them) are not discounted.

        • Hi B3,

          Really sorry about this issue. I just contacted the Fyshwick branch and it seems like there was a misunderstood from our staffs. They thought you were looking for a Seagate NAS Pro 2-Bay Enclosure STDD300 (which are not included in this 10% off promo), not NAS Hard Drives.

          Since this is our staff's mistake, to compensate for this issue, we can offer you 10% OFF these NAS drives + free shipping to your place. Just send our Fyshwick team an email order and they can organize everything for you.

          Thank you

          Bee

        • @hung861988:
          But Still no reply to why I was charged full price for my Gigabyte motherboard and whether you can/will correct it?

        • @PeteM: Hi Pete, which model and how much did they charge you ?

        • @hung861988:
          Was a Gigabyte Z170-HD3 for $178

        • @PeteM: Sorry about this issue, if you picked it up on 29/10/16, could you please just bring it back and the staff will refund the difference for you ? It should be $160 after 10% OFF. Thank you

          Bee

        • @hung861988:
          Thanks for that.
          Do I have to get back there today?

        • @PeteM: If possible, please get back today. All prices are back to normal tomorrow and the staffs will not be able to amend the pricing anymore.

  • +1

    Purchased the last Asus GTX 1070 Dual OC at Auburn store today. Ordered on Friday as low stock. Received order number same day. Checked and now out of stock.

    Also get to register for the free downloadable copy of Gears Of War 4 which expires 30th October 2016.

  • Just saw this post. I bought a 3.5" internal HDD in-store at MSY on Friday 28/10/16 and there was no mention of any 10% off for purchase and ended up paying the normal price.

    In order to get the 10% discount did you have to mention this sale at the counter?

    • +1

      Well, I bought WD red NAS 6tb no issues. They have the promo printed in A4 shown at the counter.

  • I'm confused does it apply to other cpu coolers not shown in the pdf but on the full site?

    • Yes, all CPU coolers either on website or PDF price list.

      Thank you
