    Wish there was more info on specific items. Their website doesn't give much away: http://newstores.thegoodguys.com.au/southwharf/index.htm?pag…

      well, since its just floor stock and they aren't taking orders, seems reasonable to think that it will be just like a normal store with thier different sections except that there wont be so much stock replenishment

      • +1

        needs more info inflated rrp's with 50% off insnt necessarily a bargain

        I got a electric rice cooker for 11$ :)
        TVs RRP 600 dollar reduced to 300 dollar

        LOTs of computer and monitors reduced to 40% of the price

        mobiles reduced and further 25% off on them

        cameras - a slr i found for 400 dollars and lots more

        Rice cooker was $10 at aldi
        what tv? 32"? or 26" (which can be found for less than 300 at JB
        not sure somewhere like good guys sells monitors cheap enough that 40% off is cheaper than a dedicated computer store like msy etc.
        same with mobiles

        base model slr's are 400 or less at other places a few posts here this week attest to that.

    Sorry, am I missing something here?

    • +8

      YES: 40% of the price is 60% off :)

      (Don't worry, I had to think about it too.)

    • +1

      Just like…..

      20% off all items store wide*
      *excludes gift vouchers, cigarettes and gaming consoles

      WTF

      • +9

        40% of the price equates to a 60% discount. More reading less quickdrawing.

    I think there will be a big queue in the morning.

    • +12

      Good place to hold the Melbourne based Ozbargain AGM. Most members will be in attendance.

    When does this start?

    • +26

      No, read it properly. Geez, being rude is bad enough, being rude and stupid at the same time is just damn irritating.

    • +7

      reduced to 40% of the price

      as per above post 40% of the price is essentially 60% off

    • +5

      See comment above ….

      40% of the price
      Not 40% off the price

    • +7

      STOP EVERYBODY. STOP THE SALE.. The poster makes a mistake (even though they didn't) bring everything back, NO DEAL…. YOU cant have 50% because …….

      Its idiots like this that make you want to take away negative voting from those who, can't be bothered reading what the negative vote is used for

          Firstly, dyslexic is spelled wrong.

          Secondly, no dyslexic person with an ounce of reason or rationality would go and correct somebody in that way. They would KNOW that there's a good chance they misread it.

          Thirdly, dyslexic is no excuse for rude.

          You're not dyslexic, you just screwed up. Deal with it.

    should be enough guys

  • +4

    anyway back to the sale….

    I went past earlier in the week after being given a 20% discount on top of the already reduced prices just by showing the friends and family email that was pasted around at work. The place was pretty empty next to no tv's/computers, I got what I was after, the sunbeam EM6910 for $455, I wouldn't bother going out of your way to go there though. They have been doing the sale for 2 weeks….

      Hey! I thought this was a sale for the goog guys!

  • +7

    So are all the googs on sale?

    • +6

      HEY - no racist terms on here.

      You'll offend all of our wonderful visitors from Googsilvania

        damn..I thought it was Googistan?

    Can anyone tell me if they have any Front Load washing machines..8kg minimum?

    • +3

      Hey have 1 or 2 literally, don't get your hopes up about getting it though

      • +1

        Thanks, I tried calling them but no sales people could come to the phone and the person who answered said hardly any washers any way.

    • +2

      That's what she said!

  • +2

    Was it goog for you? (the Ozbargain party)

    … I couldn't get there … had an appointment with my pillow which overran.

    … at least I've still got a little money in my wallet :)

  • +5

    Not much floor stock, seems to be only ex-display goods. DVD players without cables and remotes, still only 25% off ticket price. I guess it'd be okay if you have a Harmony remote which I am sure most of us do…. Staff seem a bit annoyed but they're probably out of a job.

  • +4

    Went this morning, waste of time. Only about 1/8 of the store open, and most of what's left is crap. We have missed the boat big time on this. Most of the stuff was marked down 20-30% of ticketed price, which the ticketed price was about the usual 10% off for floor display stock, so no Big bargains. Example Harmony 1100i Remote still marked at $899 less their 20%. Logitech's web rrp price $599 . Store closes on 16th March. Must have been a real winner of a store, has been open for less than 18 months. Bye Bye Expensive Guys!

  • +1

    Thanks for the feedback, sorry it wasn't better!

    $899 for a remote? Worthy of Guinness Book of Records?

  • +1

    Glad I didn't drag myself out of bed to go!

  • +4

    this is a stupid post
    went there, NOTHING worth looking at
    crap and expensive stock only
    nothing like 40 OF computers

  • +1

    i would leave a negative feedback if i could.
    this is almost false advertising~!

    • +2

      Did you really sign up just to say that?

    • +1

      False advertising? Lmao.

  • +5

    there were still a couple of digital cameras, stereos, landline handsets, washing machines and fridges, along with the odd kitchen appliance left around midday, but i mean literally a couple, went looking for a cheap fridge and just missed out by minutes (the staff were even debating over who sold it lol) but considering the sale has been on for 2 weeks, you cant falt anyone, just unfortunate that most here didnt know til yesterday.

    I would hazard a guess that the reason the business failed is because no one payed cash there, so they didnt slash the prices (no joke)

    anyway, it was well worth the trip in anycase, the dfo centre has enough shops/cafes to keep you busy for a few hours and thats even from a male shoppers opinion lol

    • +5

      True, it was crap. Two weeks? Really? Wouldn't have gone if I'd known. There really was barely anything there, and what was there was basically all ex-demo and not much cheaper for it. Also, the 50% off is a lie. Tops was 40% off whitegoods, kitchen stuff etc.

  • +5

    This was a waste of time..couldn't find anything that was left that is 50% off. Everything were 20 to maybe 30%. And there is just junk left.

    • +2

      it sounds like any Ozbargainers who went to this sale and were disappointed must feel like Joe (and Joanne) Public who normally turn up to a sale after us Ozbargainers have ripped its guts out.

      so in a way, tough luck to us !!
