    Sold!

  • moo on 04/06/2011 - 17:42

    I bought one last week. Pretty good deal. Plenty of stock in the Perth store.

    This is odd, not available in Sydney, but Darwin has a store, and other cities.

    • Ace on 04/06/2011 - 18:04

      Because there isn't a JR/Duty Free in Sydney?

        For a guy named Ace, you're not very bright. Lol.

          Herp. James Richardson Duty Free don't operate/manage/have any part in the Duty Free stores located at Sydney Airport. The Nuance Group operate ALL Tax & Duty Free stores in Sydney. Hell it's even mentioned on the JR site that they sold their Australian division to Nuance in 1995 and later came back 10 years later and over the course of 3 years from 2005, opened the 5 stores they currently still have operating in Adelaide, Brisbane, Darwin, Melbourne and Perth.

          And heh… I'm not even going to bother commenting on your name other then to say good luck with your relationship.

  • frgn8r on 04/06/2011 - 18:08

    Perfect timing…

  • Richardlwf89 on 04/06/2011 - 18:11

    Going to pick one up for the car, $99 seems good as

  • moo on 04/06/2011 - 18:11

    Keep in mind that these Nano 6th gen are plague with battery life issues. You'd be lucky to get more than a few hours worth of listening time. So please keep that in mind :)

    • Richardlwf89 on 04/06/2011 - 18:12

      Going to have it plugged into the car, so battery won't be an issue for me, great price~

      • Amanda856 on 04/06/2011 - 19:16

        Mine doesn't charge through the ipod connector we have in the car (fully installed), lasts about 4 hours of non-stop music/radio for me

  • bryans on 04/06/2011 - 18:15

    Spend 80 more and you get iPod Touch 8GB.

    • moo on 04/06/2011 - 18:17

      Not too sure if I'd want to wear the Touch as a watch :). In case you didn't know, the Nano 6th gen is suitable for a watch conversion, with a kit such as Tiktok or Lunatik or iWatchz (currently selling for $24.95 @ NextByte).

      • Richardlwf89 on 04/06/2011 - 18:19

        I didn't know that.. but just did a search. I might pick up one of these too. Cheers!

      • issh on 04/06/2011 - 18:41

        eBay has cheap ones under $1 as well

        Link—> HERE

        • HotKgon on 05/06/2011 - 14:18

          Cheers for that issh.

      • SimBer on 04/06/2011 - 18:54

        Yeah i seriously cannot see the use as a watch.. Very uncomfortable to have the cable running from your wrist, unless you run it up your sleeve.
        Then again it'll be flying everywhere if you use it for jogging

        • Smigit on 04/06/2011 - 22:36

          That and a normal watch's battery last for years…this one will get you through a day. I don't see the point, if you want to be able to tell the time get a normal watch. The only real use might be while jogging or whatever but every iPod under the sun has some form of arm attachment and to avoid the cable swing you mentioned having it higher up on the arm makes more sense anyway.

          It's a good MP3 player but its a bad watch.

        • footywiz11 on 04/06/2011 - 22:44

          it's not a watch. it is just a cool pretend watch

        • bryans on 05/06/2011 - 07:53
          -6

          Jogging with your iPod is just as dangerous as crossing road with headphones on. High chance of death

        • A Banana4scale on 05/06/2011 - 11:40

          not a very good mp3 player either. Capacitive touchscreen on a tiny screen is not worth it without the other features the one before this one had.

          In fact the ipod brand is not famous for it's quality of music, that would be cowon that has possibly the best file support and SQ.

          The only good ipod worth having would be the touch and I'll still be waiting for the Zune HD2 if it gets announced soon

      • SydStrand on 05/06/2011 - 13:41

        Not a good watch. It's too bulky, none of the straps I've tried get that snug fit.

        And the device itself is not waterproof so even the mildest rain can set off the water damage detector, giving Apple an excuse to refuse your warranty.

  • sparkles on 04/06/2011 - 18:37

    This price is cheap compared to the RRP.

    I recently got one of these Nano's. It works fine but I'm thinking of selling it because the screen is small and annoying, the buttons for volume seem to be in the wrong place, overall it just seems really fiddly to use. Not a fan of this model so far.

  • [Deactivated] on 04/06/2011 - 18:58

    By my calculations (and I'm no calculator), the GST inclusive price would be $109.90.

    • markis10 on 04/06/2011 - 19:31

      $99 + 10% = $108.90, and thats what I got charged.

      • [Deactivated] on 04/06/2011 - 20:13

        Oh you're right, sorry I'm a spaz ;)

          Clearly you're not a calculator

          obvious non-calculator is obvious

    • sash213 on 04/06/2011 - 19:34

      I would say $110.

      Well you really got a bargain then, extra $1.10 off

  • [Deactivated] on 04/06/2011 - 19:06

    just to note you cant use the ipod whilst it is charging, never tried this in the car though, just from experience charging it on my pc via usb

    • Amanda856 on 04/06/2011 - 19:18

      What you can do when you're charging it via PC, is just 'Safely Remove' it, but still keep the device connected. It will still keep charging and you can use it at the same time.

  • uraha on 04/06/2011 - 19:23

    which iPod Nano 8gb is this?

      double post. 6th gen

  • iChopstick on 04/06/2011 - 20:23

    IMO the 5th gen nano was the best of the bunch, 6th gen feels like a step backward. Thought it was the new shuffle when I first saw it.

  • Trance N Dance on 04/06/2011 - 22:03

    Shouldn't that sign technically have a GST inclusive price as well?

    • markis10 on 04/06/2011 - 22:12

      No, if there is an expectation that your customer is able to purchase without GST or claim an input credit then goods can be advertised ex GST, in the case of a duty free store thats a resonable expectation.

      • Trance N Dance on 04/06/2011 - 22:32

        Ah okay
        Thought they had to advertise with GST no matter what. I remember walking into a duty free store with both prices on the label on the shelf for every item.

  • stekeren on 05/06/2011 - 05:39

    Hey, does anyone know until when this offer last? Also, is there anyway to claim the GST back or obtain it for 99 dollars? Thanks

    • zhenjie on 05/06/2011 - 11:46

      Go overseas and claim it back. your only choice

      • HotKgon on 05/06/2011 - 14:19

        You can claim back the GST only if you fly out within 30 days of purchasing the goods.

        • zhenjie on 06/06/2011 - 00:26

          A GST refund through that method would require a min purcase of $300. For this price uneed to buy Duty Free

    Confirmed for Adelaide!

    • HotKgon on 05/06/2011 - 14:13

      Got one from Adelaide. Thanks.

    Didn't get one, but Melbourne's got them at 99 as well. Had about 20 in the display cases, green, pink, silver and one other colour (blue?)

  • stekeren on 05/06/2011 - 18:23

    Bought 6 today, there were black, blue, green, pink, silver in perth store. Confirm they have loads of stocks.

    • dzf on 06/06/2011 - 13:02

      Broden…?
