Hi guys!

Just found the greatest deal I have ever found! Myer in Ringwood had two brand new Kinect Sensors discounted to $50 a piece (RRP $200, Ozgameshop $150). They had a poster that said Buy one get one free for Gaming stuff and I asked the guy if they were included and he said yeah. So I just got $400 worth of gaming stuff for $50!!! Please go check out other Myer store and use my receipt to see if you can something similar to this deal. Unfortunately Ringwood doesn't have any more Kinect Sensors but other notable deals I saw were:
Tony Hawk Ride $50 each (two in stock so both for $50 all up)
Band Hero Complete Set $50 (Can't remember what platform but I'm leaning towards 360)
DJ Hero 2 Turntable+Game $50 each lots of stock
Heaps of games for 360/PS3/Wii/PSP but they weren't great deals. PS3 games ranged from $20-$50.

Hopefully your local Myer can do something similar to this fantastic deal and let me know if you successful anywhere else!

    Great find! Am looking for a Kinect actually.

  • bym on 28/10/2011 - 17:35

    Wow, nice really nice

  • nubzy on 28/10/2011 - 17:38

    dont think much of kinect but for $50 worth getting

  • ironworthy on 28/10/2011 - 17:39

    great find!

  • PLA74 on 28/10/2011 - 17:39

    So it his just the actual kinect sensor or the one with sensor plus kinect adventures game?

    dang thats cheap

  • PLA74 on 28/10/2011 - 17:50

    Just phoned the Myer near my house and they wouldnt do this price

    • elamo on 28/10/2011 - 17:52

      Unlucky mate.

      • PLA74 on 28/10/2011 - 18:01

        so dodgy as the myer pricing policy states that it is universal and national across all stores in australia

  • ironworthy on 28/10/2011 - 18:04

    i thought the buy one get one free was over

    • elamo on 28/10/2011 - 18:06

      Apperently not. The guy said they are just trying to get rid of everything gaming related.

      • ironworthy on 28/10/2011 - 18:08

        any other bargains? shoulda checked my local myer today.

        • elamo on 28/10/2011 - 18:10

          The things I said in the post were the only real other deals.
          Games were all pretty avg priced. But if you found two that you really liked it could be a good deal although I didn't find any that took my fancy.
          There was a Logitech PC Steering wheel for $50, didn't look to new or flash but I'm not sure how Racing Wheels are priced so might be decent?

      • Steptoe on 28/10/2011 - 19:55

        Current deal is until 31st October.

        As always, clearance pricing is store by store. Wii DJ Hero is $20 at Wollongong Myer and included in the current sale (buy one get one free).

    I'd say OP just got lucky .. but if u can find even 1 for $50 .. still a great bargain

  • Vidgamer on 28/10/2011 - 18:11

    is there more at myer ringwood or did you buy the last 2?

    • elamo on 28/10/2011 - 18:13

      "Unfortunately Ringwood doesn't have any more Kinect Sensors…."

  • Tickle on 28/10/2011 - 18:39

    I just checked at Myer Bayside and they have sold out too. Seems they are going to stop selling gaming consoles etc

  • bluemoon on 28/10/2011 - 18:40

    Adelaide Myer won't do it :(

  • kheob on 28/10/2011 - 18:41

    It appears they only discounted them because they were the last two. I don't think anyone will be able to get a price-match anywhere.

  • ozblogger on 28/10/2011 - 18:59

    got the last 2 @ Knox
    here's wat u need to do … if ur local myer has stock ask them to check their latest clearance memo … Kinect's in there for $50 !!
    So it wont scan for $50 itself
    good luck … and thanks elamo !!

    • kheob on 28/10/2011 - 19:02

      I guess I was wrong then.

    • elamo on 28/10/2011 - 19:33

      Really shoulda gone down to Knox but I was lazy! Did you get them for $25 each or $50 each?
      Congrats :)

    • PLA74 on 28/10/2011 - 19:37

      I told the staff at the Myer store including the store manager about checking that, and he said it doesnt exist. The Kinect sensor would still be at $199

    Pretty awesome that they included the receipt for no extra cost.

  • PLA74 on 28/10/2011 - 19:36

    Just had a chat to the store manager with the Myer store near my house. He said that the salesman who sold it made a mistake and that the product is wayyyyyyy below cost. He also said this a one off thing as it was a mistake by the salesman.

    • elamo on 28/10/2011 - 19:46

      Mistake = Profit!
      The fine print on the buy one get one free was "Not including Console Hardware". The distinction between Console Hardware being the actual console (360, PS3, Wii) and the Kinect probably wasn't clear to the guy and it might have been classified as console hardware.

      If OzBlogger got the same deal then something must be consistent throughout stores. If you talked to the manager then I'm sure he is gonna understand the prices of his stock and not sell anything under cost compared to a salesman that sells whatever the price tag/deal says.

      • Steptoe on 28/10/2011 - 19:58

        Console hardware excludes the box itself. Things like kinect and move are accessories not console hardware.

        • elamo on 28/10/2011 - 20:01

          Ahh ok. Thanks for the info.

        • PLA74 on 28/10/2011 - 20:03

          ^ Steptoe is correct. Yeah true….Kinect and Move are an accessory, not console hardware technically!

        • Smigit on 28/10/2011 - 22:18
          +1

          Really just up to how they want to interpret it. Accessories are by their very nature hardware, and being for a console you can easily argue that they are "Console Hardware".

      • ozblogger on 28/10/2011 - 23:27
        +1

        This is what I think happened:
        The clearance prices weren't suppose to come into effect till the 1 for 1 deal was on (1st Nov. maybe), but someone at Ringwood must have put the clearance sticker early.

        And the chick @ Knox was very helpful, as in she called Ringwood, clarified it and found Kinect to be $50 in the memo, then gave me 2 for $50 (they had only 2 left !!).

        I still think if someone's willing to try it should work at other Myers .. provided they have stock

    Want to sell me one for 40 shipped? :D

    • Assassin151 on 28/10/2011 - 20:53

      • KLoNe on 28/10/2011 - 20:57

      ok!

  • chief911 on 28/10/2011 - 21:04

    i was told at Myer Northland (Melbourne) that the offer begins next week…!

    and the buy one get on free policy excludes electronics…

  • Mixhael on 28/10/2011 - 22:49

    Checked out Myer in Perth. Nothing really special there. No kinects or Guitar Hero specials… -_-
    BUT, if you still have a PSP 1000 lying around, you can get the add-on camera for it for $10 with the Invisimals bundle. It may work with 2000/3000 PSP's as well.

    • Jero on 29/10/2011 - 01:11

      cheers bro didn't think anything would be open today so didn't venture

    • [Deactivated] on 29/10/2011 - 20:32

      didnt see this until now. gonna go check Freo again tomorrow for anything good. Last time I went looking for those GH Guitars, and had no luck on the pricing.

      • [Deactivated] on 30/10/2011 - 19:14

        none in freo.

        $50 360 GH guitars though

    What are they going to do with all those games that don't sell? which is many considering they're still a rip off.
    They should discount more, its been a month or more now and they're still offering the same discount as day one.

  • ro0sta on 29/10/2011 - 16:30

    Called several myer stores and visited 1 all are sold out…inact at northland. They said some guy came and bought all 6 ot 7 left. What a d* ckhead: now othersmiss out while this douche bag makes a quick buck on ebay.

      And what were you planning to do with 2 Kinects?

      • ro0sta on 30/10/2011 - 13:03

        Were you that guy? I wouldve been happy to pay 50 for just 1!!

        • kheob on 30/10/2011 - 13:48

          No I wasn't the guy lol.

  • NiteMice on 29/10/2011 - 16:39

    Checked out Myer Southland, and there's not much there. If you're lucky, you might find something in PS3, but mainly it all gone. Anything left is pretty overpriced still too.

  • bargainy on 29/10/2011 - 17:53

    Belconnen was pretty much done with all their console stuff. Just odd junk left.

  • brougham on 30/10/2011 - 18:47

    I got the 1 for $50 at Myer Ballarat!!! They said they will be on sale tomorrow (mon) but because i knew of the Eastland deal (stuffup!) they pretty much matched it friday night
    They also said they had a fair few in stock

    • kheob on 30/10/2011 - 18:55

      So it was suppose to start when the BOGOF ended? I guess that makes more sense.

    • Xenox1997 on 31/10/2011 - 18:31

      do they still have them?

  • nubzy on 30/10/2011 - 19:11

    none in stock at myer chatswood or macquarie..

    really wanted one too

  • charmed_tiger6 on 31/10/2011 - 12:28

    I'll buy the second one you got for $50! lol I doubt that I will find this deal anywhere now…

  • charmed_tiger6 on 31/10/2011 - 15:14

    So is this deal meant to be on this week? As it isn't advertised on their website anywhere…

  • Xenox1997 on 31/10/2011 - 18:32

    ALL MYERS IN VIC ARE OUT OF STOCK ON THE KINECT SENSORS, I CALLED EACH ONE

    CHADSTONE STORE MANAGER TOLD ME THAT THIS PRICE WAS WRONG AND THEY WERE STILL FOR $199

    STILL DOUBLE CHECK THOUGH

  • jammy2006 on 02/11/2011 - 23:46

    Picked one up for $50 at Macquarie Centre Myer. Nubzy said no stock, however there were exactly two left after I purchased one. They're inside a glass cabinet with a $199 sign next to them.

    Alternatively if anyone wants to try a pricematch I can provide a receipt with $50 on it.

    • Xenox1997 on 03/11/2011 - 20:56

      please tell me how u did it?

    • Xenox1997 on 03/11/2011 - 20:58

      can u plz buy me one and post it if i pay u?

    • crypt00 on 17/11/2011 - 23:30

      Could you please post the receipt I'm going to try pricematch thanks

  • KenDiaMoi on 06/11/2011 - 09:06
