Drawing on the brains trust here, im looking at buying a an arlo pro 2, 3 camera stystem. The good guys have them down to $724.50 delivered with their 20% sale ending today. Im planning on going down to bunnings to see if they will price match -10% (worth a shot). Seems like a good deal from what i can tell these go for around $900. Should i pull the trigger or wait and take a gamble on the black friday sales in a few weeks? Any advice is appreciated.
Should I Wait Untill Black Friday to Buy an Arlo Pro 2?

Thanks mate Solid advice, i didnt consider stock clearance. Im looking at the arlo 2 over the 3 because it comes with 7 days rolling cloud footage for free where as the 3 is $10 - $15 a month for cloud storage.
my local bunnings does 10% off the ebay price. came down to $460 for the 2 camera system which was a good price i thought.
7 days rolling cloud footage for free
Yes this, but only free up to a certain number of cameras if I remember correctly (5 cameras for our Arlo 1st gen).
Also I learned from another user that Netgear has separated from ‘Arlo’ and apparently the ‘Arlo Ultra’ and models after it are therefore designed differently & have the ‘new’ cloud plan system.
I have heard of many issues with the ‘Arlo Ultra’ (up-until it’s delayed released & after it has gone on-sale), so I would be careful before going with the ‘Arlo Pro 3’ as well since it may also have issues.
Errr, Bunnings will sell you a hammer for $652. Not so sure if they will have cameras.
A quick search for Arlo, Ring, Swann will show you they do in fact sell the Arlo cameras plus others.
I have been eyeing the Arlo pro 2 but didn’t like the fact it needs a base station. I bought a JOOAN wireless unit from here and I’m very impressed with it. Footage is stored in micro SD card though.
Thanks for all the help guys, my local harveys ended up doing a good price on an an arlo 3 setup so im all set. Very impressed with it so far
Let us know how it is after a few months.
I am sure others who are interested in the Pro 3 will appreciate it as well.Will do mate
What price and which kit?
Arlo Pro 3 have already been out for a few weeks and Arlo Pro 2's are still on the money-grab price from all local retailers. I went ahead and ordered a couple of units from Amazon US which had already dropped their prices to 37% off and decided to get 2x add-ons I've been wanting to get locally. Even with shipping to AU, I am saving nearly $90 per camera compared to if I picked these up at full price at local JB or HN.
Hey guys I'm looking to buy the Arlo Pro 2 as well. Can't seem to find any decent sales anywhere
Has anyone seen any good deals?Cheers
Given that the Arlo pro 3 has already launched, the pro 2 has a chance to be reduced further. So I would personally wait until black friday sales for the pro 2 or maybe to just go straight to the pro 3 then.
