Sony WH-1000XM3 Noise Cancelling Headphones $274 C&C (Or + Delivery) @ The Good Guys Commercial (Membership Required)

4780

Update 11/12: Stock of the black headphones is back again, and price is the same :)

Union Shopper partnership seems to be excluded unfortunately.

Greetings everyone, I just found this on TGG commercial website, I know it's niche and targeted to TGG Commercial users but it is too damn good to not post! This is a ridiculous price for a newly released product..

This is targeted at TGG Commercial users, from what I can tell, there are many different avenues to which you can get a login. For example, Union Shopper, Senior Shopper, Professionals Australia and many other shopper programs provide access to this website. So if you're part of those programs and haven't signed up yet, check out if you can get access!

I'm posting this to raise awareness, and maybe if anyone wants to help another Ozb'er out, to order for them if they feel generous :)

Including TRS, this is $246.60 ($300 min spend required for TRS), insanity. Just picked up my pair :)

Proof of Price


As always, enjoy :)

    • try walking into jbhifi comments a hour ago said they have success with a price match there.

    • +1

      They are always a D. last time the xxxxxx guy gave me a long lecture about the difference between "price match" and 'price beat'.

    • +1

      Why not just buy from the shops that offer the price?
      Wouldn't that be easier?

      Why would you want to waste your time and their time.If you can buy from another store that will give you that price?

      I don't see the logic.

      • Amex cashback offer?

      • +1

        Because in this case the price is being offered but it requires a commercial account to get that price. So there are a few people that are already able to buy it but to get the commercial account normally takes a few days to get one through the various methods and third party sites. So in this case people are looking to price match it because its a good price so they can buy it right now.

        btw i got one ordered through SirNed, he is on the first page of comments and might be able to order some more for you.

        • @Kiato But, if the store says they can't why would you want to argue?
          I would just purchase from a store that has the better price and not waste my time.

          • @mk1: Well its not so much about that its available online only and you need that account to get it, so have accounts through their banks/ affiliate programs etc. Not many had the account set up ready to go and as people are finding out takes some time to activate, with no idea how long the sale is going for i think the mentality is order it while you can so you can get the deal rather than wait the time and possibly miss out. Plus when it comes to this stuff jb and office works are some times willing to come to the table. Harvey Norman is a bunch of dicks about it though.

            For the record though id prefer to go straight to the person that offered the deal, but if it means i had a chance of missing out due to a long processing time or what ever i would look to price match it just so i can get what i wanted.

            • @Kiato: Harvey Norman live chat…bunch of clowns…The unprofessionals…

  • +2

    How long are these commercial deals usually active for? Have to wait up to 4 days for TGG self service to be available.

  • Tried JB HiFi @ Ryde, the guy said he needed to see the full receipt. I left without comment.

    • +6

      pm me and ill send one through to you

      • Can you please help me get one?

      • Hi Kiato, Could you please pm me? i have tried to contact you but i wont allow to do it. Thank you!

        • +1

          Your settings dont allow for private messages.

          • @Kiato: Could you please give it one more try? thank you so much!

  • I managed to price match at JB, however they were out of stock so I put in an order at $274. Hopefully they won’t cancel my order before it arrives!

    • +1

      Which jbhifi….

      • definitely not at World Square that's for sure

  • This or qc35?

    • Bose QC35 series 2 is the top dog, however, Sony's WH-1000XM3 is slowly catching up.

      Bose QC35 vs Sony WH-1000XM3

      • +4

        No way. I have all 3 - bose qc 35 ii, Sony 1000xm2 and 1000x3. The Sony xm3 are the best by far - NC, isolation and sound quality are much better on the 1000x3. The 1000x2 are slightly worse in comfort and NC. The only good thing about the Bose is comfort and being able to connect to 2 bluetooth devices at the same time. The Bose NC is very limited compared to the Sony 1000x3

        • when they say the XM3's are more comfy what sets it apart from the XM2's?
          they say it's lighter, but does the headband feel less tight?
          any comments on the heating after having them on after a few hours?

          • +2

            @[Deactivated]: The XM3's are slightly less tight than the XM2's which increase the long-term comfort. The XM2's were frustrating in this regard. The XM3's do still make your ears hot after prolonged use, but a bit less so than the XM2's. The Bose are still the most comfortable, but that this mostly because they do not have a very tight fit and as a result have comparatively poor NC. The NC performance is so much better on the XM3 compared to the Bose that I prefer them for all use outside the home

        • Maybe this is a silly question, but… why do you have all three?

          • +4

            @ak47wong: Bought the Xm2' for $260 on sale last year. At home I found them uncomfortable after prolonged use. The next day I saw the Bose QC35 m2 on sale for $350 so bought them with the intention of selling either the Sony or Bose depending on my preference. Could not decide on which one to sell as they both had advantages so kept both. Recently bought the XM3's in order to finally sell off both the other pairs. But now my GF says she would like use a pair sometimes so I will keep both Bose and XM3's. If I could only keep one pair from the three it would be the XM3's. I would not say the same about the XM2's

    • I haven't used either of them, and have the same question. Though, on paper, they seem pretty even - https://www.rtings.com/headphones/tools/compare/bose-quietcomfort-35-ii-vs-sony-wh-1000xm3/565/678#usage5000!threshold0.1

  • JB sold to me at $280. Bloke showed me their app thing and said without the price match, the best they could do was $388. Just showed them that receipt. Thanks!

  • Man I've tried Eastgarden, Westfield Pitt St, The Galleries Jb Hi fi & all of them just turned me down, I'm pissed smh

    • Yeah I tried all the city stores aswell, they all refused stating cannot price match "commercial". One of them said lowest they can do is $310.
      I didn't bother showing the receipt though, I doubt they would have changed their mind.

      • +6

        $310 is still a good price though

        • +1

          $310 is still good

      • hey which store offered you the $310? I would like to buy a pair for that price

    • I think the guy that posted receipt went to Pitt st store near Martin place, not Westfield. You should try that too. Just couple mins walk from Westfield

      • Little late but i went there at 16:30 and they don't do price match. The westfield at pitt street didn't mind but ran out of stock.

        • yeh, I'll try out 2morow with all my price match receipt collection at pitt st, otherwise I'll drop by at chatswood, ryde or macquarie to try out my luck.
          If I could I might buy 2 or whatever to help fellow ozb.

  • question about the TRS, does the name on the invoice have to the same as the person claiming the refund?

    • Yes. Made this mistake once :(

      • -3

        Question:

        So I bought one through my TGG Commerical account and it says the customer is Member Benefits Australia (VIC) even though the "delivery customer" is me.

        I then went and bought from the same store (same ABN) another product on a separate date (ie separate invoice too) to bring the total over $300 and now the sales customer is me, not Member Benefits Australia (obviously).

        My question thus is… will I come into problems with TRS? I paid for everything, same ABN, but potentially the "customer" was different on the 2 different invoices.

    • -1

      Only if your invoice is over $1k

    Thanks OP. Saw this mentioned by @dasein on 20/10 https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/410332#comment-6489521
    Got access via my Aust Assoc of Social Workers membership benefits.
    I'm picking mine up from Warrawong this week if any Wollongong/Nowra locals want a pair I might be able to organise getting a few more

    • I’m about 45 mins away from warrawong and would be very interested in 2 pairs! :)

      (edit, I told the wife and she is wanting one now haha)

      • Ok pm me and I'll see what I can do

      • +1

        If she didn’t, you’d definitely need one.

      Yup,can't login either, simple fix via the Wordpress config file though

      • care to share how you did it?

        • +2

          Sorry, might have come across the wrong way, I meant for them to fix the problem is a simple via their config file but only when they actually get around to doing it is hard to say.

    • Same, Please let us know if you come across a work around. Will do the same

    • +1

      yea ive been trying to login to Union Shopper website, getting the same bloody error :-/

    • Well after emailing them the website is back up, only to be greeted by a lack of access to TGG Commercial saying I needed to make a call. So after being on the phone for half an hour they tell me they're having to verify all registrations and I'll get a call back later.
      Come back to find they're out of stock.
      Yeah so much for Union shopper

  • There is going to be oversupply on ebay :)

    • I thought broden stuck to Gumtree?

  • +1

    sh*t, bought the Sony WH-1000XM2 for this price and thought that was a bargain! Still in the box, sigh…

  • +5

    We should start our own union of The Professional Shoppers Union (TPSU) so we can sign up to TGGC and obtain this deal :D

    • +2

      Agree. Ozb should create some group buying. Just look how many members we have here.

      • TA should get on this as part of cashrewards.

      • Ozbargain professionals or Professional Ozbargainers 😃😃

    JB Commercial have them for $347… I guess I could ask them to price match but still baffled by the difference given its the same company.

  • +2

    Too anyone wanting a pair I put my reciept for two on here with date jb stores I went to we’re happy to price match

    With MK3 at this price would it be possible to get second hand MK2 for $140?

    • I sold my XM2 for $175

      • -2

        Ok its possible then as demand for mk2 should be less after next week. 274 still a little too steep for me, 140 I am happy with older gen

    • People are still paying up to $300 for used XM2 on ebay, so good luck..

  • I bet after all this price matching deals, jbhifi will be updating their policy lmao.

    • A JB Deal applies to identical products in stock at both the competitor and the relevant JB Hi-Fi store at the time of price matching. The competitor price must be verified by JB Hi-Fi. Online price comparisons must include any delivery costs. Exclusions apply for cash back offers and store credits, bonus and bundled promotions, coupon promotions, grey or direct import products not sold through an authorised Australian reseller, commercial orders, competitor advertising errors, and competitor clearance products or products with limited or restricted quantities.

      • I just tried to get a price match via JB Commercial - and they said no they can't do it either.

  • Is Senior Shopper Free to join? My Dad's a Senior so he should qualify. I was going to give him my QC15's but at this price might as well get him a new pair.

  • Just did a quick check on gumtree and seems a stack priced around 380 have suddenly become avaliable - brand new in box, of course. Hopefully everyone who wants a pair is able to get their hands on a set!

    • +1

      At that price I would buy from JB. Good luck to them.

  • (profanity) disabled my SunSuper account I signed up for from the last deal….
