        • I'm in for a virtual group hug ;)

          In all seriousness though, I should've had a look before posting. I had no idea who Shopmonk was and also didn't check everyone's prices but I was in a rush and literally had 5 minutes so I quickly posted it haha. I know for next time :)

          My view is always post, and let the voting buttons do their work.

    Inb4 price hi… Nvm

  • I thought "Boourns" was an appropriate reason to neg. Well, the price hikes and listings above RRP definitely is!

  • +2

    I am now convinced the price jacking is real. No deal.

    ZERO feedback, what a joke..!?!

  • +2

    Case #1 $200 over the RRP
    Case #2 $170 over the RRP
    Case #3 min 12% jacked up price
    Case #4 works out to be normal retail
    Case #5 a meagre $10 discount and any probs that comes with some unproven sellers

    thats easy andrew…

    NO DEAL!

    This is why only posts which lists actual bargains should be allowed. Posting a 20% off code is a store promotion not a bargain.

  • Wow, thought Futu was better than this

  • +7

    Not this again… why aren't ozbargain doing something about this? Why bother advertising this kind of click bait RRP, dodgey marketing RRP type promotions. I remember back in the day OzBargain was where you got BARGAINS. Is a bargain saving 5% off RRP? If it is to you, you're not a true ozbargainer.

    These kind of dodgey type sales waste ppls time. Go post these kind of bargains elsewhere. Like whirlpool or something? Bargains should be types where you save MINIMUM 10-20% off RRP on the vast MAJORITY of products if its a store wide type deal or a minimum 20-30% for 1 product type deals. Then you won't have muppets putting the price of a USB stick down by 70% as a loss leader but then advertising "Up to 70% off". Sickening.

    • why aren't ozbargain doing something about this?

      Because there are sometimes 1 or 2 good deals in there.

  • +1

    from my personal and painful experience, and the hundreds of google reviews… whoever you buy from, I'd suggest you ask them not to use fastway couriers.
    this is especially true for futu, since they use them a lot.

  • +1

    not worth

  • +2

    So expensive!!

  • +1

    They surely do not know the real meaning of RRP (Recommended Retail Price). Or thinking that "Recommended" can be ignored

  • Anyone know of a good NBN compatible modem with this deal?
    I was looking to buy the Netgear Nighthawk D7000, but it doesn't look to be compatible on their website.

    • Don't bother. I had about 10 saved on my list waiting for a sale like this, and all of them from futu got prices jacked the day before the sale…

  • +2

    Its a shame really. It means that there isn't enough margin in the products to make any money. Hence the price increases.

    I can comment on this specifically as we were apart of the last promotion. At 20% "OFF" eBay covered 5% and we had to ware the 15%. Lets not forget too that eBay/ PayPal still collect their standard fee's which is an average of 6.5% combined. So with 21.5% in fee's and free postage. There just isn't enough margin in tech products, in a highly competitive market space. Once you add a few missing items, issues with customers, damaged in transit goods, you make bugger all of nothing.

    Not only that, it seems that because the promotions are happening so regularly, when a promotion isn't on, regular traffic really dies off.

    • Did you opt in to the promotion?

      • Yes we did.

        When you go from daily sales of $$ too $$$$$$$$$$$, the promotions do work.

        • Can you tell eBay to go (profanity) themselves for me?

        • until the whole deal collapses because the general public wise up to the pump and dump routine

    this is ashame to those sellers marking up this price. And no way ebay doesn't know about it.

    Wow.. laptop ram over 9000!!!! No deals..

    It's a shame to see what ebay has become. 15 years ago almost everything I bought online was on ebay and the prices were the best you could find in Australia for most things. Now you can't find a bargain even with 20% off.

    • +1

      You're over exaggerating. Still plenty of bargains to be found on ebay.

    • +1

      Hand in your ozbargain badge if you can't find a bargain on eBay. Bargains to be had every day even without discount codes for those of us who don't expect bargains to just fall out of the sky into our laps.

  • +1

    Pure bait and switch bulldust from eBay these days. 20% sales are largely a bad joke now,
    Bring on Amazon, I'm over these eBay clowns.

  • +1

    This has gotten beyond stupid and is now just false advertising. I don't normally neg these deals but this one has gone way too far.

  • Why dont they stop jacking prices and just change it to 5% off.
    Jacking prices up and saying 20% off pisses people off.

  • please dont revoke negative votes

    The deal is not the cheapest available
    Defective product
    Major issues with retailer

  • +2

    Guys lets do something about the price jacking -> misleading customers… We must hold them accountable especially so for Australian based stores.

    What can be done?

  • +1

    Let's face it, OzBargain does not care about deals anymore. These types of post violate the posting terms, but still get spammed…

  • +1

    Disgusting

  • +7

    Safe to say the OzBargain tide has turned on these fake 20 % off eBay sales now.
    Ebay are failing to protect their reputation and brand by routinely allowing their sellers to pump up their prices and then offer a discount off the new fake "only at sale time" prices, often much more than RRP or any normal B& M store. no doubt they all dump their prices back down to normal eBay market levels once the promotion ends.
    Its just a farce now and eBay are taking us for mugs. The inclusion of some dodge-o-rama new seller called "shopmonk_australia (0)" with a feedback of precisely 0 into this promoted eBay sale, speaks of back room deals being done and general shonkiness.

  • +1

    I think eBay should be held accountable for this and not Futu, et al. It's against Australian consumer law to list as a sale price when the original price was never actually used. The supermarkets were taken to the cleaners by the ACCC. Now it should be eBay's turn. They could easily stop this by enforcing ethical listing practices.

    P.S. I'm not associated with eBay. I listed a deal on there once. Apparently this prevents me from down-voting this deal.
    Mod: Fixed association.

    Just got a Samsung 500gb nvme for less than ple locally at $296. Still cheaper overall. There's some deals out there…

    • Ryzen 1700 is $400 after discount from Futu.

      ranges from $425 to $490 on staticice + shipping (~$15 depending on store).

  • +1

    So surprise to see the amount of neg votes, but totally agreed with what being said here. Bear in mind though, that eBay is only a platform for seller to list their products, if everyone stop buying from these fake 20% off, sooner or later they will stop doing it.

    Best to vote with our wallet, and buy from those who genuinely honour the 20% sale.

  • SO MANY NEGS

  • +2

    Personally speaking they are still decent deals out there. Not the best deal historically but if you needed something now, some deals are still decent.

    For example I needed a micro sd card. I got a Samsung 128gb evo which at jbhifi is selling for $154. You can buy it for $60 after 20% discount. Not the cheapest by ozbargain history standards but I still get to save money right now since I couldn't wait

    MSY doesn't have it on stock at the moment.

    • Also purchased another and a Dell laptop.
      Saved $95 :)

    blah futu online isn't worth a look these days even with 20% off.

    The "ACCC" is investigating. We should see the end of this drivel from Ebay. Very bad form indeed.

    • ACCC is all bark and no bite.

  • Ebay and all their associated corrupt retailers can blow a goat.

  • Rigged sale

  • Useless sale

  • +2

    Can't find anything "cheap", so no buy. Neg on their deal, not on you OP. But thanks for your effort anyway.

    • +2

      No worries :)

  • Most electronics are cheaper at MSY

    • +1

      Yes, and there's even a chance they'll treat us with marginally more respect than eBay.

  • Prices are inflated, can't see any bargains here.

  • wow talk about jacked up prices…

    samsung 850 evo 250gb ssd sata3
    from this lot $175
    just a quick search from another seller $148

  • Just saw this deal from another post referring back to this one. Thought, great! Got a heap of routers and phones saved up from heaps of different eBay sellers. I thought, at least one of these sellers will be in the next tech sale. All of the prices were within $5 of each other. Went to my eBay wish list and had a router saved that was being sold by futu and it's about $50 more expensive. Price was updated a day before the sale…

    For the mods: negging this deal due to the questionable price rises pre-sale. This is shady and most probably illegal.

  • Negging due to higher than rrp prices

  • Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me!

  • Jacking up the price. Talk about misleading advertising…

    I said it before and I'll say it again, these posts should be banned to discourage these dodgy practices.

    Well at least people are coming to the realisation.

    Time to find a new website as OzBargain hits mainstream…

    Down voting due to inclusion of Shopmonk

    • +1

      Based in Australia, shopmonk_australia has been an eBay member since 28 Feb, 2017

      Not only is the account only a few months old. They have had no activity during those few months. I would avoid for obvious reasons.

  • increase in price, any real deals?

  • Negging due to price increases before sale

  • And just to annoy me more i received an email from ebay today letting me know that the item i was watching from shoppingsquare has now been drop by 15%

    original title on item from shoppingsquare had use CMUM20 for 20% off which has now expired.

    So they replaced title now with use C5OZ for 5% off.

  • Honestly surprised a mod hasn't commented on this yet.

    • Mods can't delete the post because someone else who hasn't seen this one will repost it and it'll all start again. Which is fair enough.

      • +1

        I don't want them to delete it. Just want to see them weigh in. Should we expected every bs eBay deal from here out to get negged to oblivion?

        • Well at the end of the day that's why the neg button is there. Obviously in this case it wasn't a deal, hence the negs (as I've said I should've done some research prior to posting). That's not to say every eBay deal after will be negged, there is genuine sellers on there.

  • +1

    Negging due to price hike

  • shopmonk_australia has 0 feedback.

    Just saying.

  • Something needs to be done regarding price hikes. ACCC come in!
    Neg due to price hikes

  • Neg vote for fake sale ( s8 for example)

  • I don't know why people up vote automatically as soon as they read "%" SALE!

    This is becoming a con by ebay and sellers!

    Thanks, order WD NAS hdd. It was cheapest with 20% code.

    • Which unit did you get?

      • +1

        i got WD 3TB NAS hdd for $151.20. The cheapest on StaticIce was $159 from MSY in ACT. Others were including postage.

        • Sorry, I thought you meant a NAS unit. I misread your post. I'm looking at a NAS for backup and pseudo media server.

    So now ShopMonk have added 11 fake feedback ..

    http://feedback.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&u…

    They sold 11 pairs of "basic" headphones yesterday and amazingly all customers have received them and left feedback within 1 day. (the headphone image is actually Bose).

    Seriously fast shipping from Singapore :D

    What a joke.

      Thats fraud - dont ebay have rules about feedback manipulation?…and eBay is promoting these grubs?
      Amazing

    Woot! Found something that wasn't jacked. Harmony ultimate remote. Last one just died. Actually was 20% less than staticice
