Was just browsing for mobile deals and I found an Aus stock iPhone X 256 GB for $1529 from https://www.ozmobiles.com.au/cheap-iphone/apple-iphone-x-256…

The store had a suspicious note at the bottom of the page saying "These phones are not sealed (They have been opened and checked)" so I thought I would try a price beat at my local Officeworks.

The nice guys at the Woolloongabba store price beat them with no hesitation, I just presented them with the OzMobile deal on my phone.

NOTE: Officeworks no longer price match OzMobiles.

    Careful, Australian iPhones should have 24 months of warranty.

    • no not me on 17/03/2018 - 23:23

      Apple claims 12 months local warranty but an additional 12 (or more) under ACL. ACL isn't considered warranty, likely because warranty is honoured internationally and you can't claim ACL warranty outside Australia.

  • Nutrino on 16/03/2018 - 20:35

      I wonder what “Total Price Match Savings” is meant to mean?
      EDIT: Realised it’s the difference between what OP paid and the original Officeworks price.

    Can someone please share iphone x 64gb receipt if they buy one from Office works.

      64G isn't enough for much, reconmend to skip to the next one.

    *12 Month Warranty : if its apple warranty should be 24m
    * Product has been unsealed and "checked" : Why? So they can replace the power plug with an aussie one?

    I suspect they are either refurbs or not Aussie models.
    given the "wholesale price" from Apple/Ingram Micro/Synnex in Australia is well in excess of the $1529 being charged here i would be digging deeper if i was buying from them.

    Also stating the warranty is "manufacturer only" is illegal under ACL.

    I would def only be buying one from O'Works in this scenario there is no way i would be giving "OzMobiles" a cent of my money.

    • danielkcheung on 17/03/2018 - 10:27

      Thanks for the heads up. Definitely will hit up OW instead if I decide to buy.

    • no not me on 17/03/2018 - 23:26

      As I mentioned in another comment, what you get from Apple is a 12 month warranty. You are also eligible for ACL guarantees which extends the "warranty" to 24 months (technically its extended to the 'expected life of the product', so it should be more than 2 years). The reason why its not classed as warranty is because Apple warranty is international, ACL only applies to Australia. Its the same situation with EU consumer laws – Apple will honour extensions to the base 12 months internationally but you can only claim the country-specific extras in the country it was originally purchased in. Compared to something like AppleCare, which is able to be used internationally.

      • jimbobaus on 18/03/2018 - 10:30

        Apple Australia does not warrant devices (iPhones, iPads, Watches) that are grey imported.
        They are very clear that their warranty is limited to country of purchase on those devices.
        have seen first hand their refusal to warrant a device that was bought outside of Oz.

        • no not me on 18/03/2018 - 15:31

          Apple will warrant any device (assuming it's not illegal – i.e. stolen) for 12 months. Hence why Kogan stock is covered by a 12 month Apple warranty and not the 24 months (12 month Apple + 12 month ACL). Did you see this happen at an official Apple store? It's pretty surprising because Apple is one of the few companies that offer international transferrable warranties.

    • Prince K on 17/03/2018 - 10:45

      • samedream on 18/03/2018 - 00:11

        They can not do price match without OZmobiles link. The store I go also take a photo of the receipt screen for record.

  • tobe01 on 17/03/2018 - 10:17

    • cruiserbruiser on 17/03/2018 - 10:32

      You could have a try with the 256GB silver model receipt. The guy at Officeworks asked what colour I wanted even though I showed him the deal for the silver model :)

  • ChocolateMale on 17/03/2018 - 13:50

    Just went to officeworks Garden City & Browns Plains. Staff there said they won’t do a price match as the competitor’s iPhone is not sealed and it’s refurbished.

    • Archie Wei on 17/03/2018 - 20:24

      Use the picture of the reciept, dont bother to show them the original deal.

      • ChocolateMale on 17/03/2018 - 20:36

        I did. They said it was an error caused by one of the employees from other store. Did you manage to get one? From which store?

      Could you pls upload the receipt for 64GB? Thank you.

  • Hello Stranger on 17/03/2018 - 14:07

    I couldn't do it as the staff said they can't price beat online stores and OzMobile doesn't have a physical store.

    • boredofficeworker on 17/03/2018 - 14:55
      +1

      I'd ask to speak to the manager and show them the section where it lists:

      "Our PBG includes products at competitor’s online stores but, as with any other kind of store, the item must be identical and in stock. When assessing the PBG from online stores we also take into account the added cost of delivery to your location"

      I could understand refusing to match based on any number of legitimate reasons, but pretending they don't match online stores is an outright lie on the stores behalf.

      Edit: a typo

      • Hello Stranger on 17/03/2018 - 15:03

        We did do that, but then he said that OzMobile aren't authorised resellers so rejected it all together.

        • madseason on 17/03/2018 - 16:55

          Went into the Woolloongabba OW and got the same story as well. Wouldn't budge, just said that person got lucky before they looked into the site and the fact the phones aren't sealed etc etc. Oh well worth a shot.

  • samedream on 17/03/2018 - 14:38

    Try 2 OW stores, first one refused as excuse of can’t match and out of stock.
    2nd store, took them an hour to verify the photo of receipt and ozmobiles website and I finally got one (silver only)

      You obviously got an inexperienced staff. Of course Officeworks don't pricematch opened stock. The reason this website's are open is because they are grey stock and they swapped out the charger. Warranty Ozmobiles are also taking the risk meaning they provide no Australian warranty and are not an Authorised Apple dealer. Quiet dodgy overall, no warehouse address, no store address and pickup in Melbourne City? Also not an Authorised Apple dealer.

    • adam456 on 17/03/2018 - 18:09

      Same here. East Vic Park in WA said the same thing. Can't price match due to opened stock

      • samedream on 18/03/2018 - 00:27

        Another person came to ask the same deal when I was paying the phone at the counter. She got the deal straight away, no question asked.

  • [Deactivated] on 17/03/2018 - 17:04

    Don't go in to OW to pricematch these. Its a waste of everybody's time and the reason they are open is because they are grey stock and they swapped out the charger.
