      If you buy one its $699. If you buy two its also $699. So they are actually offering you $149 off for one, or giving you another one free for that price. They aren't asking for a higher price for one - they are in fact giving you a discount. It's a buy one get one free sale, not 50% off sale.

    Just left Noosa store with fuji film s3400… 2 old people, that were aware of the deal - did not want their 2nd camera, walked out with 1 only:/

  • ozrex on 27/10/2011 - 13:22

    Just picked up two Sony HX9V. The bloke was "since it's a sale, I'll throw in a warranty" and tried to charge the sticker price $599 ($499 on the website). Told him it's $499 on the website and he adjusted the price, and left the extended warranty in the deal. Thanks OP!

    3 (after I bought 2) Canon G12 available at Campbelltown HN at 1 PM. No staff and no customer at the camera section at all.

    My spare G12 is spoken for, sorry.

  • porkroll008 on 27/10/2011 - 13:38

    Just bought 2 X Canon G12 for $699. As a true bargain hunter i even tried to get the $699 price down (JB $537) but they said there not doing price match on this offer…

  • astroe on 27/10/2011 - 13:49

    Can I ask what the big deal about the G12 is? :)

      The G-series is Canon's flagship range of compact cameras. The target market is enthusiasts and not point-and-shooters. The bigger price tag buys you a bigger and better sensor, better optics, better ergonomics, less camera lag, loseless RAW format, external flash support, etc.

      • astroe on 27/10/2011 - 14:21

        So, lets say I'm a guy that just leaves it on auto and points-and-shoots, I take it this would NOT be the camera for me? :)

          I'm sure it can do auto just fine but then you may be paying for some things that you may not use.

          Have a look at the Sony HX9V, that might be more to your liking. It does all the thinking for you. The video is amazing too along with the awesome image stabiliser. I was recording videos while walking briskly and the video footage looks like it was shot using a steady cam type rig.

          Not the camera for you if you want to save money, want a small camera you can put in the handbag, want a camera that looks good and not chunky.

          A good camera if you value image quality, want to hold the camera securely (better framing and less fuzzy photos), want to capture that "moment" instead of "wait, my camera is not ready yet". These benefits are available even if you only use Auto.

        • astroe on 27/10/2011 - 14:46

          Hmm good point guys.
          I might pass the G12. It looks pretty and all but seems a bit high maintenance.
          I'd want an easy camera just to take pictures with, I COULD learn how to use it properly but I don't think I have the time to do so.

          Besides, with summer coming up I'd be hesitant to lug something that large (and expensive?) to the beach. LOL.

          Maybe get a waterproof camera if you plan on taking it to the beach. I'm sure you'd have a lot more fun with it if you're not being too overprotective about the camera getting wet.

          if your looking for a good water proof camera i would suggest Sony Cyber-Shot TX10B
          http://www.harveynorman.com.au/product/1256975603681/sony-cy…

          Ive got the TX5 (version before) and it is fantastic! really fun to take on the beach, swimming, whatever! and the picture quality is awesome as well, i use it all the time on nights out where i can't be too precious about the camera and it takes great night photos. also it is alot slicker looking that most water proof cameras.

    awesome, got two SX230s. price in store was $449. showed them a print out from their website with $393, which they "price matched". guy after me asked about the same camera and got the $393 price from my salesgirl, but later when buying and dealing with another salesperson was told $449… but thanks to me got it at $393, haha.

    also got them to price match on an iconia tab as per the good guys post. ozbargain win!

    Thanks for this post!
    Picked up two Sony DSC-HX9Vs for my grandpa and my mum.

    TIP:
    I called up beforehand and was told they had 3, and they were $599 but I mentioned HN website stated $499, which he immediately agreed to.
    When we got to the store, turned out they only had 3 on order. Furthermore, he tried to tell me that $499 would be the price for 1, or I could pay their RRP ($599) for both.
    Luckily, I had opened the HN website link on my phone, showing both the $499 price and the Special Offer of buy one get one free. They then readily agreed to give me both for $499, on back order (2-5 days wait).
    This was at HN Warrigal rd, Victoria (new, used to be Clive Peeters)

    So:
    - Call ahead
    - Don't let them con you into paying the in-store price. Bring proof of the online site!

  • Fuente on 27/10/2011 - 14:36

    Harvey Norman Belmont in WA seems to have quite a few stock left of the Canons.

    I bought 2 of the Canon SX230 for $449. They wouldn't price match the website price.
    Still a pretty good deal though.

    Let me know if anyone is interested in the other one.

    • iffer on 27/10/2011 - 18:51

      Interesting.. I got 2 of the sx230's at the website price (the rep was saying new price labels were being made as we spoke)
      So final price was $221 each camera with extra 2 yr warranty

      Maybe go back and ask them to re-check your price lneooenl - think they do a price guarantee (happy to send a pic of the Belmont HN receipt)

  • shaiguy on 27/10/2011 - 14:54

    Adamiam - good tip - just picked up 2 DSC-T10s at Martin Place. They were $449 each but just realised that website was $437.

    In any case he gave me 1 extended warranty free (for peace of mind) when I purchase the other (c.$120) and got 2 x Sandisk 8GB Extreme cards for $39 each - about normal but was easy to pickup.

    The Martin Place one says ALL compact cameras excluding SLR and interchangable lense cameras. A few people wandering around looking to tee up someone else to also buy the same camera and to split it.

  • superforever on 27/10/2011 - 16:18

    I am thinking the Olympus XZ-1 $499 on their site so $250 for one.

    Is it the best for this price?

    • bargainjargon on 27/10/2011 - 16:44

      Seems that way unless another store does some insane discount. They're usually around $400ish at other stores, possibly cheaper if you're okay with grey imports.

      EDIT: Sorry, I think I misinterpreted your question. It depends on what you're after but it's a great value camera for $250. My other choice was the Sony HX9V and I'd say that's by far the best if you plan on using video quite a bit. Like a couple of others have said, they're two different cameras.

    Haven't decided if the 2nd one is going to be a christmas present or selling to recoup some money yet.

    They just got a shipment in at around 3PM I was told.

    Late night shopping, they open until 9PM.
    I've grabbed two. :)
