      I know what'll cheer you up. A heavier wallet. Even better if the 20% applies to it.

      • Do you apply lead weight?

        • no but it matches the heavy heart …..

    • Did you mean light??

        I must say, after spending all the time looking for bargains, like searching for needles in a haystack, people will start to hallucinate. People here does have a great sense of humour, which is why I come to this site so often. Even without getting a bargain, reading people's awesome comment is priceless!

      • +6

        after the First Choice 20% off deal, I could use a liver instead :(

        • i’m sure a site will be selling liver detox on ozbargain to complement the first choice 20% off.

      • You would be better off asking if any sold 👓.

  • +22

    prices already jacked at JW…. nothing to see here boys!

    • Yeah looked at the graphic cards. Was really disappointed.

    • +14

      have people been reporting this to ACCC? Surely its not acceptable practice.

        • +22

          Because usually when you advertise a sale, youre supposed to decrease the prices.

        • +22

          @jv: No. If they want to increase prices they can. Just dont bring attention to it and call it a sale.

        • +29

          @jv: Yes. What do you think "participating store" means, jv?

        • +11

          @jv:

          The sale is typically listed on their page as well.
          Also they've already fined other online stores such as Kogan for increasing prices for sales. So the precedent is there. This is arguably worse as they're increasing their own profit margin to take advantage of an ebay sale at no cost to themselves.

          “It is simply unacceptable for businesses to raise prices before applying a discount in order to give consumers the misleading impression that they are obtaining a larger percentage discount than is actually the case,” ACCC acting chair Dr Michael Schaper

        • -6

          @polk:

          Also they've already fined other online stores such as Kogan for increasing prices for sales.

          That was Kogan advertising a sale and increasing their own prices.

          This is ebay giving you a discount. ebay do not set the store prices.

        • +2

          @jv:

          Well we shall see if the ACCC agree. I don't see how Dr Schapers wording there would somehow exclude ebay price jacking.

        • -5

          @polk:

          Well we shall see if the ACCC agree.

          T&C's are clear :

          "The offer entitles you to 20% off the purchase price (excluding postage) at Participating Stores on eBay.com.au during the Offer Period"

        • +9

          @jv:

          Participating stores. So JW computers elect to be part of the sale, and then set their prices higher in preparation for the sale, to give a deceptive 'discount'…. Sounds familiar….

        • -3

          @polk:

          So JW computers elect to be part of the sale

          Show me where JW Computers are claiming it is 20% off their normal price ?

        • +5

          @jv:

          OK champ this is a waste of time. If you think its perfectly friendly pro consumer practices then enjoy your shopping experience.

        • -3

          @polk:

          If you think its perfectly friendly pro consumer practices then enjoy your shopping experience.

          I said no such thing.

          All I said was they have every right to charge what they want. The store is not claiming to offer a 20% discount to their normal price (as Kogan did)

        • +1

          they possibly do decrease some prices …. but jack up others ….
          the discount is paid for by ebay, not the retailer as you will notice from invoices, so it’s something that ebay needs to address to protect their brand ….

        • +1

          @garage sale:

          so it’s something that ebay needs to address

          exactly… that's why the ACCC can't do anything about the retailer.

        • +4

          @jv:

          i must be the only one that agrees with JV. As much as it sucks for us all. Ebay are doing the discount. Not the retailer. Retailer can charge what they like and they seem to be covered by Ebays discount blanket. If its too expensive , don't buy it. You have a choice.
          JV is only pointing out the facts.

        • +5

          @jt0505t:

          I agree with JV as well, eBay is the main advertiser of the deal, the stores just join in, they don't actually advertise it themselves.

        • @doweyy: Yes, he's just telling the truth.

        • @jt0505t:

          Ebay are doing the discount. Not the retailer. Retailer can charge what they like and they seem to be covered by Ebays discount blanket.

          Store reps have said before that eBay does not cover the entire discount hence why prices are jacked.

        • +1

          @PJC:
          What's all this JV love?? This just isn't right. This is ozbargain, where everyone hates on jv.

        • @SlickMick: Well, he provided a photo I find useful. It's my understanding there are only 25-26 stores participating because eBay only partially covers the cost of the 20% discount. Consequently some participators increase prices which does not interest ACCC because they avoided false promises concerning previous prices. eBay provides a 20% discount off their prices, increased or not, which does not interest ACCC because they too avoided false promises concerning previous prices.

        I did three years ago complete with spreadsheet data and screen shots. This was for dick Smith at the time.

        DS responded with "system glitch" and Fair trading closed the case.

        There's an online form to report to ACCC. You can attach screenshots or your little table.
        Aren't those prices so conveniently close to retail +20%….

        • -5

          There's an online form to report to ACCC.

          Report them for what? They can sell stuff for any price they like. They're not forcing you to buy from them…

          It's ebay giving you 20% off the purchase price, not the retailer advertising a discount.

        • +3

          @jv:

          As I said we will see if the ACCC agree.the retailer agreed to take part in the sale and then put their prices up and continues to hold the higher prices on their eBay store specifically because of that sale while offering conveniently 20% lower prices for the same items from the same store but from their website
          No one forced anyone to buy from Kogan during their shady sales either yet they get fined so that is an utterly ridiculous comment.

        • -5

          @polk:

          As I said we will see if the ACCC agree.

          They won't.

        • @jv:

          Great.

        • @polk:

          while offering conveniently 20% lower prices for the same items from the same store but from their website

          lots of stores do that all the time, not just during an ebay discount offer.

        • +3

          @jv: Why are you so relentless to argue with Polk on every comment? What he is saying isn't unreasonable. Whether the ACCC can do anything or not, this is a shady practice and even though you haven't directly defended these actions, you come off as somebody who thinks this is fine and "Stores can do whatever they like". The whole reason the ACCC exists is to stop shady business practices like this. Instead of bashing the idea, you should be encouraging people to complain. If enough people do than the ACCC will be forced to look into it further. If you like fake sales and price jacking to mislead customers, why are you a member of Ozbargain? If you don't like these things, then why argue with people that want to complain? How do you think regulations are created? People need to issue complaints for anything to ever happen, this is fact. Your getting down voted for a good reason.

          @Tythefly86:

          Why are you so relentless to argue with Polk on every comment?

          It's the discussion section for this deal.

          What he is saying isn't unreasonable.

          yes it is… nothing to do with the store.

      • +1

        their own website is usually cheaper with many retailers as they don’t pay ebay a commission ….

        for some like myer, they are trying to train their customer base from an in store experience to online ……like maccas app and deals so more use the app.

    • how come i cant find anything listed on JW's ebay store?
      http://stores.ebay.com.au/JW-Computers?_rdc=1

  • +1

    Can you buy now and pay tomorrow with the 20% off? Before the price jacking starts?

    • +7

      Depends on whether the store hasn't got an immediate payment required on the item, if it doesn't say "Immediate payment required for this item" under "Postage and Payments" on the item page, you can.

    • It probably won’t work if the price has changed.

  • +1

    anyone able to provide the search link? thanks

    • +2

      If you're in the market for a Surface like tablet/laptop, decent price (especially since they haven't hiked the price up… yet).

      Reviewed pretty well compared to the surface pro 3, and comes with a keyboard/LTE (which surface's at the entry level don't), so you'd be hard pressed to do much better switching to microsoft. However it's not the price of a lifetime, it was $835 a month ago - https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/349059 - and the m5 is regularly under $800

  • +6

    Pretty small list of sellers…..

    • +1

      Yeah and if its anything like the last one you can take at least 4 or 5 of them off the list.
