Called a few Big W stores late this afternoon looking for stock of the iPad Air 2 at $399, and was told I wouldn't find one anywhere. But, the gentleman at Box Hill told me they had the iPad Mini 2 16GB at the incredible price of $149. Was going to make my way there but just too far. So I called them back around 6:15pm as I thought I should post this on OzB and they confirmed there was still 12 in stock! If price shows at full retail, ask them to scan the iPad. Call (03) 8347 5800 and ask for Home Entertainment to confirm. Good luck, and be nice to each other in the store lol. If you score one, please say so in the comments. Enjoy :)

Mod 27/4 9:40pm: Out of stock at Box Hill VIC, the only other apparent locations with stock are Big W Hallett Cove SA (6 left - store now closed) and Mt Gravatt Garden City QLD (10+ left - store now closed). Please check comments before calling your local store (fair chance someone has already called and been informed there is no stock).

Mod 28/4 11am: Hallett Cove SA & Mt Gravatt QLD sold out quickly early this morning, no other stock reported.

      If it helps any, I called 7 stores before posting and found stock only at Box Hill, although 2 others said they had a few and sold out 2 days ago. Also, a lot of stores have the 32GB version, but it's over $300.

      the last guy bought the only one? Are you saying there are 12 guys bought 12 of them or the last guy only had one available and he bought it

      • rartelif on 27/04/2017 - 19:54

        No, he is the only person bought, staff said there was only one left at back.

          Not true. A young gentleman checked the stock and confirmed there was 12. He made me wait on the phone while he did. I don't want to say what I think I want to say lol. Not going to accuse anyone of anything :)

          Also, see here…

        • rartelif on 27/04/2017 - 20:05

          @tightarse: spoke to Rob at entertainment department( he is the only person there) he said there is no stock apart the only one bought by another ozbargainer 2 min before me.

    and at this price price you'd grab the lot if you can find stock and sell them on Ebay. ….

  • 55suby on 27/04/2017 - 22:22

    Just a heads up. The new Apple iPad is a great price and runs just as well (if not faster ) than the iPad Air 2. If you have access to student card jbhifi will match Apple educational pricing. Absolutely love mine
