Officework price beat over the phone with no issue. Not the lowest price but travelling overseas soon for TRS so can no longer wait for a better deal. It's a shame there is no stock in WA for the Silver model with the same price so have to settle on the gold. Nevertheless still reckon it is a good price.
TobyDeals don't actually have much stock on hand. My Galaxy A20 phone took exactly 14 days (incl weekends) to ship out after the date of purchase, when I emailed them about it they said they were waiting on suppliers to send them the stock.
But when they do have stock, their stuff is typically shipped via courier fairly quickly (as quickly as two days).
thanks. good thing i ordered in advance, that gives me hope
Yes, tobydeals can be a PITA. Ok if cheap and you are not in a hurry.
Just note there is a new version now - similar specs but with a slightly larger screen at 10.2" and smart connector.
slightly larger screen at 10.2" and smart connector.
These are precisely the only differences between the 6th gen 9.7-inch iPad (this deal) and the new 7th gen 10.2-inch iPad.
Internally they are identical.
The 0.5-inches is measured diagonally so the screen-size increase is barely noticeable even if you had them side-by-side. And the smart-connector is only beneficial if you are willing to spend the an extra $235 on the smart-keyboard.
Just called up my local store, they wouldn't price match over the phone
Edit: if you've already bought it, could u upload a receipt so any of us can show them for a price beat? It's a good price though
they wouldn't price match over the phone
Did they say why?
Their policy clearly states they will…
https://www.officeworks.com.au/information/policies/price-be…
Call the 1300633423 number not the local store for price beat. I have not received the receipt yet as the stock will be sent from the warehouse to a WA branch for click & collect once arrived. Receipt will be given once I collect it from store. I only have the order summary from Officework if it help.
beat me to it haha
you have to call the Officeworks' main office.. your local store cannot price match over the phone, they can only price match in-store.
How do ppl survive with 32GB?
Diff'rent usage habits is all
for streaming media consumption is more than plenty
Even the Amish won't use a device with less than 64gb.
OP got lucky like many other Price Matches
It's not an Australian site, "tobydealsau.com"
Shipping
Our Stock
Everything we sell at Toby Deals is genuine, brand new, original and unlocked. In order to get the lowest priced products from all over the world, we have set up our business in the geographical advantageous country of Hong Kong. All of the products is warehoused and shipped from Hong Kong.
Delivery Location and Time
Toby Deals AU only ships to Australia and New Zealand currently.
What about online stores?
Our Price Beat Guarantee includes products you find online - as long as the item is identical and in stock. When assessing the PBG from online stores we also take into account the added cost of delivery to your location (if any). If the identical, in stock product can be purchased and delivered to your location via an online store for a total price lower than the one we are offering, we will beat that total price by 5%.
I think the issue is, if it's sourced from around the world the product isn't "identical" so it's an unlikely price match. OP got lucky
Ow do they price match to tobydeal? As oversea seller
Tried my luck at a ofriceworks in North Lakes, they said it's not the same item due to the charger plug
LOL
Update: Called up the main office from Victoria, they explicitly state that they won't price match from Tobydeals since they source from Hong Kong

I’m a little worried by TobyDeals. Have an order that’s nearly a week old and is still saying ‘processing’. I’ve sent a couple of emails since yesterday to see what’s happening and why it’s not shipped so hopefully they get back soon and it works out.
