  • I can sense the party will be over shortly

  • Anyone got price match with OW for 13inc Macbook pro 256gb ? How much you end up paying OW ? I can only put 1 on 24hr hold.

  • -1

    Gonna wait for the new MacBook Touchbar at the 10% off sales & get an extra 5% from OW price beat = 14.5% off

  • OW can't put my name and address and details on receipt required for a 10% TRS refund at airport for a purchase above $1000, they're offering 5% off 15" price. Good guys is currently better if they can print out an actual professional receipt instead of a coles docket, anyone with experience here? I could get 15% off here if they office works could do an actual printed out A4 receipt

    • The emailed OW receipt should work. Get them to email you and put the name and address on the tax invoice at checkout

      • The guy can put my name and email and address on the coles style docket receipt, bloody manager, had to ask another person. So the cashier can email another receipt? I'm in store right now btw

        • You mean handwritten on the receipt ?

        • @yht:

          Nah he's entering in into the computer and it gets printed on the coles style docket. Wasn't sure if TRS needs a more official A4 style invoice, do they? Thanks for the responses.

        • @johndemonik: Cheers

        • @yht:

          I was just told its a liquidation price and they can't match the offer. Told me to go to Good Guys (Or maybe I should find another OW)

        • @johndemonik: What ??? I was on the phone with OW and they can price match it. But how do we calculate 5% price match ? Is it 5% from their current price or TGG price ?

        • @yht:

          %5 off the good guys price, and now he just told me he can't do it anymore. You're saying on the phone they can do it?

        • @johndemonik: liquidation price? Complete bullsh@t. Def go to another OW. I've had experience with OW emailing me the invoice when shopped in store, haven't tried to ask them to put the name and address in though

        • @Redwood:

          Yeah he was willing to print out receipt for me, but i came back on OZB to check if coles docket is ok with printed details, and as I was here, 5 mins ago, he told me he can't do it cause its a liquidation price.

        • @Redwood:

          Also all OW websites saying every 15" is out of stock

        • @Redwood: Agreed, completely bullsh@t !

        • @johndemonik:

          That's BS, Good Guys isn't in liquidation

        • TRS will accept this..
          I brought the Macbook 12' 2016 model in July 2016, they enter your details manual (name/address) and it prints on the reciept.
          100% accepted at TRS counter!

        • @ezza: Can you open the package now and use it before claiming TRS ?

        • @yht: only if you want to get your grubby fingers all over it

        • @yht:

          Sure can, i used it for about 2 weeks before I left. You don't need the box etc, just the item to present (if they ask for inspection).

  • Thanks OP, ordered the 11" MB Air. Called OW and they don't have any stock where I am.

  • Had some gift cards from JB HiFi, but they would not price match the 2015 macs, only the 2016 one will be matched.

    • jbhifi will do price match or price beat? for the 2016 model, they sell $1979, or any lower? i already picked up my one from TGG, wondering if jbhifi will do any better, i will return TGG one. thanks

      • They won't price match, I wanted the 2015 Macbook pro, they said it's below their purchase price and advised me to buy from TGG. They would sell the 2016 model for 1979 though.

        • ok so not like ow beat 5% before.i think i will tell my wife to open the box tonight. thanks to OP, instead of saving $170 for the 2015 13 inch, i spent $200 more for a 2016 model. anyway, hope my wife like it. lighter, better screen and sound. AND LESS PORTS.

        • @ce5himm: I am sure she will, this is a really nice laptop. I preferred my macbook air due to the weight, and now the pro model weights same :)

  • thanks OP! got the 13" retina.

  • Thanks OP, just got the 13" Pro 256GB. Wasn't in stock at my local store but will be shipped from one of the Brisbane stores next week. Getting low on stock all round it seems so get in fast if you want one people.

    • How much you are paying ? Managed to get 5% price match ?

  • cant make up my mind whether to buy or research Windows laptops further..the 15" looks like a good buy but still 2k on a laptop.. especially when employees of some companies can get it for $1500 according to niner..

    • Unless they have a super nice IT dept that will let them buy through them, they can't get it for private use. My old job got slightly cheaper prices (not that cheap) but there was No Way IT would ever let us buy through them and pay them back. hahahahah.

  • Apple Store in Adelaide couldn't match the price - they said go buy one before they sell out!
    JB Hifi in Adelaide price matched the 15inch macbook without issue. I got the last one.

  • OW doesnt price match with the 15inch because they said "they called up tgg and the spec was 8gb not 16gb??? I checked the model number which is same as jb hifi and it was 16gb… the attitude of OW staff wasnt friendly

  • Damn it. Got MacBook Air 8GB/256GB with Officeworks 5% from Good Guys sale on 31st Oct for $1519. Another 10 days and I could have gotten Macbook Pro for $1528. Arrgghh So peeved.

  • Will $279 for Apple extended warranty please a good value for Macbook Pro 256GB ?

  • +2

    Just got a call from OW Jandakot saying head office confirmed the price match policy doesn't work for liquidation clearance stock. Fortunately I picked one up from Officeworks Cannington 5 minutes before the call. :)

    • LOL, I just bought it from Jandakot store an hour earlier with price match.

      • Is it a price match or price beating?

        • Price match with 5% extra disc.

      • Me too about 2h ago from Jandakot. Gotta be quick!

        • Lucky you!

        • @jingsu6688:

          Jandakot's stock sounds like it got destroyed this morning!

        • @hypie:

          Yeah, when I phoned them to hold the Mac for me, the staff member commented to a colleague "another one". I didn't even ask for a price match, they assumed that's why I was buying and matched the price without being asked. Great service Jandakot!

    • Did anyone in Vic had any luck with price matching?

  • Failed pricematch on the 13" 256GB old model in Sydney as the only stock is either in Gosford or Wollongong. For some reason they wouldn't deliver to any other store or to my address :/

    • That's weird. When I called them my local store didn't have any and there was one in western syd they would deliver over. Weird.

  • +1

    Just picked the last one up from northmead. The staff were reluctant to price match but the manager after a few minutes approved. Ended up getting the 15" 256GB for 2067

  • can anyone confirm the 15" from TGG is 16gb? Can't see the specs
    FYI, called up OW and went instore (Gold Coast) - I think its a storewide announcement to not pricematch.

    • Yeah OW head office sent everyone an email

    • +1

      I can confirm its a 16gb as I rang up to tgg after i ordered it. The OW didnt price match me. They just told me that because the spec doesnt show it was 8gb or 16gb.

  • I was so worried earlier after reading some comments that OW didn't want to price match due to "liquidation" excuse, thus tell my wife to go get it straight away. And it is worth it !

    • Curious as to why TGG would be liquidating a brand new model as well (although I guess the Older model is at the ridiculous price).

  • Ordered one through the Good Guys Website, on the final screen it said I should be getting an email to confirm order, it’s been over an hour and no email. Most likely it will be a pricing error and will be refunded. All local OW and JBHIFI refused to price match as well.

    • I ordered a few hours ago.. got the confirmation email the same time as my Paypal confirmation saying it had been allocated to a store. Store called me at 4pm to confirm the details and said they are shipping it out.

      • My sister just got a call on the home phone to verify the order, but she said something about them not having it in stock and they will ship it when the do get stock.

  • Tried calling couple of stores in VIC, but no one willing to price match due to "liquidation sale". Even called up 1300 OFFICE, but no luck. Looks like have to order from The Good Guys.

    • Just order from TGG, dont wait till stock ran out

  • anyone ordered but not receive a confirmation email ? Called store and they said they hadn't received order..

    • Yes. The email came after about 4 hours. Then the store called me another hour after that to say they cancelled it due to no stock.

      • Aren't they owned by JBHIFI now; surely they can cough up some Macbooks laying around.

        • I doubt they've merged their inventory systems yet

  • +1

    15 inch sold out ?

  • i just picked up my 2016 13 inch macbook pro from local. thinking maybe i should try jbhifi for the new model. as i understand ow won't match 2015 version. not sure if they will do to 2016 model

  • Anyone manage to get stock via delivery? I couldn't get any in the stores… so I ordered via delivery.

  • Macbook gone not available for delivery..

    • +1

      Just tried price matching the 15inch retina 256g at OW Marion, same lame excuse. I said thats fine ill go to the GG across the road. His response "if they have anymore in stock". Smarty pants!

      Went across and decided to get the 512g version instead had to burn off $1500 in giftcards. Total was just a little over 3k with apple care. Very happy with my purchase, thank you OP!

      Apple guy was there and was surprised at the special.

      There is still 1 more 256g macbook pro in stock, didnt check other models sorry!

      • hate the OW attitude

        • +1

          I do hate shop with their attitude not honoring their own policy to beat / price match other store by saying "Why don't you shop to the other shop", meaning "Please don't shop with us with lower prices".

        • i Find the opposite is true for Dan Murphy. They're only too happy to honour a price beat and to slash prices with upcoming dates. Meanwhile OW workers think the billiondollar company they're working for is losing precious dollars if they honour a big discount on a few 1 year old macbooks and treat you like you're trying to game the system.

          Pissed off today. Had one ready to buy, they even emailed the receipt when I asked them too and then the manager comes over and tells me he can't do the price.

        • @johndemonik: Wow, really? Which ow store?

        • @jingsu6688:

          ferntree gully vic

      • Just called the store.
        At this point in time they have the following 13"units:
        - MacBook Pro 13 500GB HDD for $1189.00
        - Macbook Pro 13 Retina, 512 Pcie for $19xx.00

  • With 2000 clicks, I wonder if they will honor all of the Macbook Pro orders…

  • Well in trying to cancel my order of the 15 inch so maybe someone will get lucky.

  • Office works would not price beat. said because it was reduced clearance item… any work arounds? (over phone order)

  • the 15 inch MJLQ2X/A is out of stock in TGG

    Edit: the 13 inch MF840X/A is out of stock as well

  • Damn it, tried local GG and out of stock. Went to jbhifi across the road and they said they couldn’t match the price. Will try myer tomorrow at lunch and see if they can honour it. Hopefully being a staff gets me over the line.

  • Order for 13" 256 gb just got cancelled. They called over the phone at least which was nice!

  • Can anyone say where the stock in sydney area, i tried to pricematch in officeworks and myer they declined.

  • Can we get another $999 Kogan deal for Christmas 🎄

    13" MacBook Air 8gb RAM and 128gb SSD pleeese xoxox

    Thanks to the post i brought MacBook Pro 13" i5 256GB HDD Retina for $1609 at Harvey Norman in Victoria today price match and use 3 Amex cards to get $300 back :) plus going overseas so will claim tax back. This is the best deal i have ever brought.

    • You are the man. Just wondering Amex deal have to be Amex issued or can be partner bank issued. Nab, anz?

      • If you could register your card then you should be able to get the money back. My cards are amex issued here is the link give it a try…

        https://network.americanexpress.com/connect/au/en/doe_offer_…

        • just tried, saved to my card. looks like should work. anyway,i got macbook pro from tgg this afternoon. do not think they do refund because change mind. maybe i can take this deal for something later。

    • Wow, which store did you go? Just in case for next time. :)

      • Chadstone

        • thanks, mate. Noted. Did HN matched the price or beat it by 5%? :)

        • @jingsu6688: they just match the price the condition was the mac must be in stock online at good guys at the time of purchase. The sales guy check on his phone on the spot only then match the price.

        • @japan: That is great too! Too bad, I missed it.

  • Looks like the deals have been pulled. No longer on the GG website.

    Sale should've lasted Sunday.

  • Oh yea i got a MBP 13 Retina with 8/128 for $1329 from OW.

    Got price matched and beat it with 5%.

    Win!
