This is a good GPS, with included dash cam.
The RRP for this is $449, so at $168 it's a no-brainer!
The US equivalent (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01A1HL79E) is at US$219.99, and reviews quite well.
Looks like delivery only (can't find any stores with stock), so +$7.95, or Price Match with The Good Guys (who have stock)
Any ideas if the Good Guys would price match HN if HN have no stock and have stated it will be 3 weeks before they are getting. The quote below is from the GG's price match policy:
'We will verify the price is current and that the item is available for immediate sale and delivery'.
My experience with The Good Guys is that they price match, in store, if it listed on their website for a certain price. They usually just use the competitors website to look up the product and compare model numbers, see whether it is available for sale, rather than specific stock levels in specific stores.
Online price matching is done using their back-office system which keeps track of competitor pricing, so it is doubtful price matching will work outside of "in store".
No stock!
If not in a super hurry maybe just select click and collect on backorder.
Can't add to cart.
"The product could not be found."
Now it's not even on HN's site at all. I went into a store a couple hours ago and the guy put it on back order for me. Not sure how successful I'll be in actually getting it. Also checked GG online and all out of stock there too.
Got a call the other day stating the item being delivered this week and they'll let me know when it's ready for pickup. He also said I would be getting the new version, Garmin DriveAssist 51 LMT-S and it would be $168. Pretty excited about that!
I ordered one online after the guy at JB said he couldn't price match it due to no stock being available at nearby HN stores. Fingers crossed at the moment.
Hey Yuppy. I also ordered one online and was wondering if you have had any update…so far I haven't.
Hi there. I just received an email that the product has become discontinued so they can't ordered anymore units from the supplier. They're offered me the DriveAssist for the same price (which isn't a bargain) or a full refund. Quite disappointed as they didn't even offer a voucher for the inconvenience like TGG did.
The replacement model being offered is Garmin DriveAssist 51 LMT-S 5 Dashcam GPS. Is this not an equivalent model to the one that was discontinued?
@bluetongue: Oh you've got a very good point there. I thought they were offering me a regular GPS wiith no built in dash cam. I'll look into it and keep you guys updated.
@Yuppy: Okay thanks for your tip bluetongue, you were right. So they should offer you:

Which I decided to take up.
I was a little pessimistic and thought they were trying to sell me the DriveSmart LMT 50 unit instead, which doesn't have a dashcam.
Hi again. Good news for you on the 51 offer, well done. I just checked again and saw that my money was refunded with no other offer or explanation, oh well, never mind. Thanks for your reply, cheers.
Tried the link from OZB, shows the message at HN we site "Something's gone wrong!"….
Today I got my back order from harvy Norman thank you
Does anybody still have a unique link that they won't use? In market for a new GPS.
Just wanted to feedback that I did receive the upgraded replacement model being offered, the Garmin DriveAssist 51 LMT-S Dashcam GPS, from Harvey Norman and they honoured the $168 price of this deal…so kudos to Harvey Norman, appreciate it.
There was no stock at stores around me so need to add $8 for delivery, and online orders are back-order so not sure when you will get it.
